"The emotions are right on key and the intrigue compelling."
Also available in ebook format from eHarlequin. Cover Art Copyright © 2007 by Harlequin Enterprises Limited |
She would have no man... Far from the intrigues of the king's court, all Lady Gillian desired was to keep her family's estate safe -- and to honor her vow never to marry. Then Sir Bayard de Boisbaston arrived at Averette to warn of possible danger and protect all within. Who was this man, to take over her castle? No matter that he was surely the handsomest knight in the realm, and made her rethink her steadfast vows. He would have no other.... Chivalry demanded Sir Bayard protect Lady Gillian, though he never expected to do battle with the lady herself. Gillian was a woman of fire and spirit, and soon desire warred with duty as Bayard realized there was kindness and compassion beneath her prickly exterior. But he had come with a task to perform, and seduction and temptation must have no part of it...
"Once again, Margaret Moore creates characters with hidden depths, strong enough to handle unexpected dangers and intelligent enough to trust their own opinions and ideas, neither blindly ignoring nor blindly accepting the advice of others. Gillian found plenty of adventure and intrigue without ever venturing beyond Averette. I hoped Bayard would look past her rather plain exterior and realize the sterling qualities she embodied gave her a far more enduring beauty than mere good looks. His awareness of what he owed his brother for straightening him out in his younger days spoke very well of Bayard's own nature. Gillian heard some very disturbing rumors about Bayard, but I hoped she would trust her own observations rather than the opinions of others. As much as I wanted to find out what would happen to Bayard, Gillian, and the people around them, I didn't want the story to end! THE NOTORIOUS KNIGHT is an excellent sequel to Margaret Moore's MY LORD'S DESIRE. I can't wait to find out what happens when the series continues in KNAVE'S HONOR!"
