Eyreka and Augustin come to an agreement. In return for Eyreka’s running of the keep, Augustin and his men will protect the holding. While they work to unite their loyal followers, devious forces conspire against them proving that overcoming prejudices is not easy. The greatest challenge these two face however, is their burgeoning feelings for each other.
Historical romances are one of my favorite genres to read. Well-written historical romances send me into a reading nirvana. I reached that and more with THE SAXON BRIDE. Having read THE LORD OF MEREWOOD KEEP, also by C. H. Admirand, I was well acquainted with some of the characters and found myself fully immersed in the story of Eyreka, Garrick’s mother. I loved her tenacity and faithfulness in THE LORD OF MEREWOOD KEEP, and I have to say that she came into her own with THE SAXON BRIDE. I found her gentle but strong, and a force to be reckoned with. Augustin was my idea of the definitive warrior. Strong, gruff, and loyal to his dead wife’s memory, his capitulation to loving Eyreka was just magnificent. I couldn’t help but fall in love with Augustin myself.
THE SAXON BRIDE by C. H. Admirand highlights her talent as a writer. As both a reviewer and a fan, I have loved watching her writing evolve, and I have to say, THE SAXON BRIDE showcases her gift. I anxiously lie in wait for her next novel in this gripping and emotional series to be released in print as well!
