À propos de cet e-book
This tale of a Norman knight’s quest to conquer an English lady’s hostile heart is “above and apart from the average historical romance” (Historical Novel Society).
Lady Rhoese of York was an undoubted prize. A wealthy landowner, she would fill the king’s coffers well if one of his knights were to marry her.
Judhael de Brionne accepted the challenge. Desiring her land, the army captain was prepared to take Rhoese as part of the deal. After all, she was beautiful enough—albeit highly resentful—and surely he would be able to warm his ice-cold bride, given time. . . .
“What sets The Bought Bride above and apart from the average historical romance is Juliet Landon’s clear, concise writing style and her scholarship. She has obviously walked, spiritually if not actually, through the mucky streets of 11th century York, and imparts her knowledge of the time and place to the reader.” —Historical Novel Society

À propos de l'auteur
Juliet Landon is a professional embroiderer and lecturer, whose two disciplines go perfectly hand in hand. When she’s not doing one, she’s doing the other, often both on the same day. Her stories develop in her mind while stitches form on the fabric, and the one that wins depends on urgency and inclination. Juliet has been nominated for the Romantic Fiction Writer's Award, and she currently has at least another hundred ideas waiting to be released in the future.
