In 1192 England, Lady Faye Rivellaux meets with Brant Meslarches, who demands silver in exchange for the safe return of her ward eighteen moths old Angeline.  She instead offers him "God's Holy Blood", gold cup.  Brant is stunned as his employer Lord Torr Lorvais insisted the widow had nothing of value to buy back the brat. Faye clings to her goal--to rescue the kidnapped child she vowed to protect.  However, he takes the cup, but before he can leave she falls and hurts herself.  Having no choice he takes Faye and the cup that proves of Celtic King Arthur exists, as his murdered brother insisted.Brant feels caught between a rock and a hard place as he would prefer to return the infant to Lady Faye, but cannot.  On the other hand, he believes she is his hope for redemption although he loathes hurting the Lady who is beginning to mean more to him than his reputation.  Still he must be careful because his liege has plans for her.MY LADY'S TREASURES is an enthralling medieval romance due to the heroic efforts of Lady Faye to keep little Angeline safe.  Brant is the more fascinating lead character as he struggles between honor and loyalty to a liege who he distrusts as being dangerously and dismissively dishonest vs. his admiration for the courage of Faye; all that aside from his love for her.  Though Torr comes across as having no redeeming qualities going so far to use a baby as an expendable pawn to get his selfish way, sub-genre fans will enjoy this fine character driven twelfth century love story.Harriet Klausner
