12/24/2018 3 Comments Medieval Monday with-- me!![]() Today marks the final day of the Fall 2018 Medieval Monday posts. I hope you've enjoyed reading a bit about each author's book. Be sure you've commented each week for a chance to win an ebook copy of The Highlander's Crusader Bride and any of the books offered by the other Medieval Monday authors. Thank you for joining us! We look forward to seeing you again next year! And we'd love it if you shared with friends! Without further ado, here is the last of my excerpt from The Highlander's Crusader Bride. Bram climbed to his knees and over the chair arm, into Caelen’s arms. He buried his head against his chest. “I dinnae like it.”
“But, ye like her, aye?” Bram nodded, rubbing his face against his da’s tunic. “Then why do ye not want her to come to Dunfaileas with us?” Bram peered at Arbela over his shoulder, a wealth of sadness on his face. Arbela swallowed past a lump in her throat, her heart hurting. “I dinnae want her to be my ma,” he hiccupped, “’cause my other ma died.” * * * THE HIGHLANDER'S CRUSADER BRIDE Born in the Holy Land only a few years after the Third Crusade, half-Armenian, half-Scot Arbela MacLean is a true daughter of the desert, beautiful and untamed. Trained to be a warrior to avoid her gentle mother’s fate, Arbela has honed her skills with Turkish bow and arrow, sword and throwing darts—and dreads the day her father choses a man for her to marry. After more than thirty years in the Holy Land, Donal MacLean, Baron of Batroun, is recalled to Scotland, the last son available to take up leadership of clan MacLean. He brings with him knights, treasure, trade—and a daughter of marriageable age. Caelen MacKern, known as the Bull of the Highlands, is cynical about women. His first marriage formed an alliance, and he did not grieve when his spoiled, immature bride passed away. He has agreed to marry again—against his better judgement—for the men, means and coin to recover from a devastating pestilence that all but wiped out his clan. Though more than a little resentful at finding himself forced to remarry, Caelen’s proposal to Donal MacLean’s headstrong daughter nevertheless piques her interest. Each will receive what they want most from life—the ability to live as they please without interference from a meddling spouse. But their marriage of indifference will soon change to one of passion that neither Arbela nor Caelen could have predicted.

Here is Judith's excerpt from her book, Flight of the Raven. William spun around. “You’re a fine one to preach! I’ve not seen you drop to your knees to renew your faith in God and the Holy Church.” Robert’s face darkened. “And you never shall.” “Then why pressure me?” “You’re married, Brother. You have more than your own needs to consider.” * * * Make sure to comment below for a chance to win a digital copy of Flight of the Raven (or if you already own a copy, your choice of another of Judith’s books). A winner will be randomly chosen and announced on December 31. Follow along next Monday on Judith Sterling’s blog: https://judithmarshallauthor.com/blog/ FLIGHT OF THE RAVEN How eager would the bridegroom be if he knew he could never bed the bride? Lady Emma of Ravenwood Keep is prepared to give Sir William l’Orage land, wealth, and her hand in marriage. But her virginity? Not unless he loves her. The curse that claimed her mother is clear: unless a Ravenwood heir is conceived in love, the mother will die in childbirth. Emma is determined to dodge the curse. Then William arrives, brandishing raw sensuality which dares her to explore her own. William the Storm isn’t a man to be gainsaid. He’ll give her protection, loyalty, and as much tenderness as he can muster. But malignant memories quell the mere thought of love. To him, the curse is codswallop. He plans a seduction to breach Emma’s fears and raze her objections. What follows is a test of wills and an affirmation of the power of love. * * * Buy Links Amazon http://buff.ly/2eRAwRW Barnes and Noble http://buff.ly/2eWWIx3 The Wild Rose Press http://buff.ly/2eRuYXX Audible https://www.audible.com/pd/Romance/Flight-of-the-Raven-Audiobook/B07D6VCGVH 12/15/2018 0 Comments Book Giveaway OpportunityA friend of mine is hosting a super romance novel giveaway!

Here is Ruth's excerpt from her book, The Guardian's Witch.
An early winter breeze blew outside but the men didn’t notice, until the glint of something in the tree caught Alex’s attention. He straightened up. “Jamie, tell me about the charms she puts about.” “Lisbeth uses them to encourage peace and tranquility.” “What about her visions?” asked Alex. “Laura told me she’s had them ever since she can remember.” “What does she do to bring them on?” “Nothing. Laura told me they just happen. Lisbeth was born with a thin sheath of skin covering her face. She’s grown to be an exceptional healer, and she is plagued with visions.” Alex felt like the wind was knocked out of him. “A caul. And she’ll bear kings.” Everyone turned to him. “Caul? I don’t understand,” said Cameron. * * * The excerpt continues! Next week Ruth will be here: Mary Morgan You can catch last week’s excerpt here: Barbara Bettis Don’t forget, commenters each week will be entered into a drawing for a free digital copy of THE GUARDIAN’S WITCH. * * * THE GUARDIAN'S WITCH Book 1 of the Stelton Legacy Will he come in time or must she trust in her magic and risk exposure as a witch to save them both? England, 1290 Lord Alex Stelton can't resist a challenge, especially one with a prize like this: protect a castle on the Scottish border for a year, and it's his. Desperate for land of his own, he'll do anything to win the estate—even enter a proxy marriage to Lady Lisbeth Reynolds, the rumored witch who lives there. Feared and scorned for her second sight, Lisbeth swore she'd never marry, but she is drawn to the handsome, confident Alex. She sees great love with him but fears what he would think of her gift and her visions of a traitor in their midst. Despite his own vow never to fall in love, Alex can't get the alluring Lisbeth out of his mind and is driven to protect her when attacks begin on the border. But as her visions of danger intensify, Lisbeth knows it is she who must protect him. Realizing they'll secure their future only by facing the threat together, she must choose between keeping her magic a secret and losing the man she loves. Buy all my books here! |
