It is their love.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sir Elric Gadot is the Commander of the Homme du Sang, they are soldiers of the church. At the moment they are serving a Cardinal that has proven himself untrustworthy. Unfortunately that doesn't relieve them from duty, unless it's proven that the Cardinal is acting against the church.
Minnette Calleaux has been sent by her mother to England. She is to stay with her uncle until he finds her a husband. That is not something she is prepared to do. She will run away to an aunt she has never met, that way she can live life on her own terms.
We have a particularly nasty villain in this story. He is a killer who takes great pleasure in what he does. When he gets an assignment from a man of God , he knows he is on a Holy mission. That means he is as immortal as he has always believed.
This is a historical romantic suspense with lots of danger and intrigue. There is also some naughty romantic scenes. The characters are complex and obviously form a series where each book can be read alone.
I thoroughly enjoyed it.
