review 1: Falcon's Fire was the first Patricia Ryan book that I had read, but after reading this one, I immediately downloaded everything I could find that was written by her.Falcon's Fire was the story of a landless knight who sought to gain his own land by setting up a marriage of his friend's sister to a wealthy land owner.Naturally, Thorne and Martine fell in love, but there were many difficulties making it downright impossible for them to wed. The telling of the tale was just wonderful. You felt like you were there with the people of that time, and what an experience it was.Bravo! I highly recommend this book if you are into medievel times books. I am currently reading her sequel "Heaven's Fire". I didn't think she could outdo "Falcon's Fire", but I waswrong. "Heaven's Fire" is... more even better.
review 2: A romance set in medieval times~ Sir Thorne, in order to earn a parcel of his own land, works his friend, Father Rainulf to arrange a wedding between a nobleson's son and Rainulf's sister, Martine. Martine, after witnessing her mother's death over a jilted love, vows to never love a man. Although Martine does marry Edmond, she and Thorne hold a special bond together. When Edmond's brother keeps interfering in their cold marriage, and Edmond ends up abusing Martine, Thorne gives her protection. With love binding them, they must overcome death, kidnapping, trial, accusations of witchcraft and even their own feelings at times. Medieval romances aren't exactly "my thing" but I found myself engaged in the story and enjoyed watching the couple fall in love. less

Great storyline. Well thought out. Ending was a bit abrupt. An epilogue would have been good.
