Synopsis

When It Comes To Temptation...

Turning his back on his old life as a rogue, Gavriel de Marqueda has joined a monastic order in Spain and taken a vow of chastity. Before he becomes a monk, he must pass one final test: help a woman who has lost her way. But when he lays eyes on Ada of Keyworth, he is tempted beyond measure by her sultry beauty and dangerous curves.

Rules Are Meant To Be Broken...

Far from her home in England, Ada has been battling inner demons for more than a year. When she discovers that her only friend has abandoned her, she has no choice but to grudgingly accept Gavriel's help. But Ada is not fooled. Though Gavriel wears the robes of a monk, Ada sees that he is a virile man who looks at her with a hunger that matches her own—one that begs to be satisfied again and again.

It was really well written and did not rely on cliche prose to describe characters or events. A breath of fresh air. I feel like there were a few spots that dragged a little, but for......more

Goodreads review by Diana on April 04, 2024

This is a very high 4 stars though I admit the rating might have been lower if I did not have the audiobook. Historical fiction books are not something I ever consciously reach for and the Goodreads cover is not the cover that initially made me pick up the book. Nonetheless I giddily lived and breat......more

Goodreads review by Commy ** Sucker for romance on July 20, 2020

Not your usual romance, the heroine is an opium addict and the hero a damaged warrior trying to escape his past, their love was beautiful but the book was way too serious for me When I seek out romance novels, I want butterflies and happy ever afters, not blood and gore But overall a good read......more
