I've read a number of medieval romances by Anna Markland and they are without exception well written. One of her great strengths is the wonderful historical details she weaves into the story that always transport me back to the time period. In this story the heroine Nolana is in trouble as her horrible stepfather is determined to marry her off to an old man who will pay for the privilege. Nolana runs away, but she has no one to run to. Enter Aidan, a nobleman who has dedicated his life to God as penitence for what he believes is his part in the deaths of his beloved parents. But the life of a monk proves to be rather challenging for a man used to the finer things in life. I won't spoil the story by explaining more. Suffice it to say that both Nolana and Aidan have challenges to overcome and Aidan especially must come to terms with where his duty lies. A beautifully told story as usual. Very enjoyable!
