Product Description

"Delicious, merry, and often breathtaking . . . A true delight! 4 1/2 Stars!"

The Deed Bastard daughter to the king, Rosamunde was raised in a convent and wholly prepared to take the veil . . . until good King Henry showed up with a reluctant husband in tow for her. Suddenly, she found herself promising to love, honor, and obey Aric . . . ALWAYS

But Rosamunde's education had not covered a wedding night, and the stables were a poor example for an untried girl. Would Aric bite her neck like the animals did their mates? The virile warrior seemed capable of such animal passion, but his eyes promised something sweeter. And Rosamunde soon learned that while she may have trouble with obeying him, it would not be hard to love her new husband forever.

Another winner!
You've gotta love the lengths to which Rosamunde will go to not "disobey" her new husband. Being that "to obey" is a pretty important wedding vow, and we all know how men feel about being obeyed.....

Once again Sands delivers a charming and bright story about two who go through some interesting changes in order to become one. Aric has just enough stubborness so that we're sure he's all man, but put the threat of being drawn and quartered on his plate and...... Well, he's no dummy. And what can we say about Rosamunde? Sweet, intelligient, easy to get along with, undercover rebel (that kinda thing happens when you're raised in a convent) and well schooled in the art of mating. Animal mating, that is. Makes for some interesting lovemaking, you think? Enough said about that.

I don't know how Ms. Sands keeps coming up with these great stories; I'm just glad she does. It's always such a pleasure to be surprised, amused by and truly interested in the characters.

Hilarious!
This is my favorite book from Sands. Rosamunde was endearing and sweet and the dialogue was to die for. I was reading this book while waiting for an oil change, and I laughed out loud in the waiting room. I could just picture the bedding scene in my mind so clearly. There are so many humorous things in this book, that if you want a romance that is lighthearted, then this is the one for you.

Humor and love
As with all of Lynsay Sands stories this one has a lot of things that will make you laugh out load. You will also hate the hero at parts for being the most stupid of men.

This is the story of Rosamunde who is about to "take the veil "when her father (the king) shows up to marry her to a knight and see her set up in her life so that he knows she will be happy. The only problem is that she was not raised to be a wife and is more comfortable around horses and animals that people. But, that changes slowly with he growing caring for her new husband.

There is a lot of humor in this story and a strong woman character. One of the best scenes is where Aric walks into the great hall to discover not only is there a gassy horse there but it is wearing his new hat and his great cloak...
