Not one of her more stellar works. ( )

Nice medieval set romance. The heroine character grows and develops as the story enfolds: from spoiled child to grown up woman (almost) in charge of her life. I liked it! ( )

In medieval times, Bernard of Carrisford dies suddenly leaving his only daughter vulnerable to attack. The Treasure of Carrisford, as Imogen is known, flees her castle when the evil Lord Warbrick mysteriously invades the castle searching for her and its treasure. She escapes to her neighbor, Lord FitzRoger of Cleeve, and begs for his help to regain her home and defend her honor. Forced to realize that she needs a strong defender, Imogen agrees to wed the Lord of Cleeve in exchange for his assistance.

This story has several twists and turns but eventually the stubborn and independent people surrender to love.

This was my first romance of the year and it was a good one. I really enjoyed it not only for the romance but the story of the battles and imagery. ( )

Imogen of Carrisford flees when her house is invaded by a neighbour. She dressed up with a fake pregnant stomach and goes to the one man who might be able to help. Fitzroger of Cleeve, often called the Bastard. A man who is strong and powerful and willing to help. They find themselves attracted to each other but are both quite unwilling to admit to each other how much.

It's full of historical detail and the characters are quite good fun, however there are moments where it just read like a record skip, jarring a little. It's interesting and fun though. ( )
