Read the exciting new Medieval Romance series by debut author Everly Gregg!
Fifteenth Century, Burgundy.
Eva of Utrecht is an unrecognized, illegitimate daughter of the Duke Philip III. She fears she will never rise above her roots as a simple tailor’s daughter. Her birth defect, a club foot, brands her even less desirable. When the missive arrives inviting her to attend the May Day Festival at Coudenburg Castle, hope rallies.
Under Lady Isabella’s wing, Eva blossoms into a confident young woman—one blinded by pride. She sets her sights on the life of a lady, determined to win the love of a gallant knight. Little does she expect her heart to be swept away by a simple horseman who’s shunned his chance at knighthood.
Mathieu of Liège was on a warrior’s path when he brutally witnessed how power can taint the title. He bears the scar on his face and the horrible memory as reminders. The ostler believes he does not need the sword and spurs to uphold the principles of chivalry. He leads a simple life, training the horses and hunting birds for Duke Philip's court. Mathieu, though, is lonely, and dreams of finding a lady love to share his life, one who will appreciate his quiet strength and infallible dignity.
When Matthieu falls hard for Eva, he must find a way to convince her of his valor... even if he doesn’t wear the armor.
Can their love take flight?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Mathieu of Liège has warrior blood in his veins but refuses to become a Knight. He is happier looking after and training the animals in the Duke's stables.
This historical romance is very different to most. Not only is our heroine living with a permanent disability but our hero is a lowly ostler with no ambition to be anything else.
The sisters are all fascinating characters and hopefully will each get their own story. There is plenty of adventure, danger and one very helpful little owl.
I loved it.

Everley has been fascinated with the Middle Ages ever since the second grade, when a book on Early Netherlandish painting arrived in her lap. The glossy pictures of these works fascinated her, haunted her, and eventually led her to an obsession with all things medieval.Renaissance Faire, anyone?
In undergrad, Everley studied Latin so extensively, there wasn't even a class for her--they assigned her a private tutor so she could advance in this "dead" language--one she spoke as if she'd known it all her life. She went on to study manuscript illumination, and earned her MFA in creative writing from Lesley University.
After publishing a number of romance novels in several genres under the pen name Claire Gem, Everley decided to go for it: write the medieval romances living in her heart all of her life.
All of Everley's historical novels are, as you might have guessed, firmly based in true history. Research? Another obsession.
Everley resides in New England, USA with her HEA husband of 42 years and a very spoiled Persian cat. She loves to hear from her readers!
