Can a gruff, seasoned knight win over the love of his life in the midst of political chaos?
1215 A.D. - Dashiell "Dash" du Reims is the eldest son of the Earl of East Anglia and a cousin to the great House of de Lohr. Much like his warring and politically-involved cousins, Dashiell is also waist-deep in the political turmoil that is sweeping England at this time. As the Captain of the Guard for the powerful - and senile - Duke of Savernake, his is in the middle of the baron's rebellion against the king. Although his de Lohr cousins have been trying to lure him over into serving Christopher de Lohr, the greatest knight in the realm, Dashiell is reluctant for one very good reason -
A woman.
Specifically, the duke's youngest daughter, the lovely and sweet Belladonna. With the duke's senility, there is an undercurrent movement from within the family to usurp the duke by two of his ambitious sons-in-laws. As a man with only three daughters, the husbands of the older daughters are plotting to steal the duke's power and his seat, and Dashiell is the only thing that stands between them and the mad duke. He is also the only thing that stands between their wicked intentions towards Belladonna.
Nothing will get past Dashiell when it comes to Belladonna, not even men who technically outrank him. He'll fight to the death. Soon enough, the evil husbands are plotting to be rid of Dashiell as well, but not if the powerful de Lohr family has anything to say about it.
Enter a world of grand Medieval pagentry, passion, battles, and politics in Dashiell and Belladonna's story, where love is the only thing that truly conquers all and family bonds are the strongest of all. It's an all-out knightfest in this glorious Medieval epic.

Sir Dashiell du Reims has been the commander of the Duke of Savernake's army for years. He is very sad that his liege lord is becoming more lost to madness as the days go by. To add to the misery, the heir is an unscrupulous and power hungry man who married into the position.
Belladonna de Vaston is the youngest of the Duke's daughters and has watched her sister suffer a marriage to man she despises. There is no way she wants to live like that. Bella has wanted Sir Dasheill for years but the man insists on treating her like a child.
Our hero sees himself as far to old to have the beautiful Bella . She deserves a young and handsome husband.
This is a fabulous story that deals with an issue some of us may face today, like dementia in a loved one. In medieval times when the Lords of the land held so much power devious people could use that illness to take that power for themselves. That's unless there are honourable men around to put things right.
The story is set in a time when the King of England is trying to force his nobles to obey him, and causing war all over the land.
Lots of emotion and some temper tantrums from our heroine. Soul searching and bravery from our hero and his men. We meet a few friends from other stories but not enough to spoil any of them. The names will be very familiar to fans if this author.
As usual a book that drew me in from the first to the last page. I loved it.
