Review:
The Knight’s Substitute Bride was an excellent
medieval novel, that’s not one of my usual go to historical age but I
couldn’t pass up the opportunity to read a new work of Melissa Oliver. I
think she is one of the best author who narrates this period, and I
once again loved one of her books.
Lord Robert de Brunville is promised to the beautiful Clan Darach's heiress in order to give them protection and tie his name to Ireland, but Mairenn Ni Tiernan takes her sister's place at the last minute and she marries the foreigner. This is the begin of a great story full of intrigue, deception and love.
I've enjoyed the writing, the storyline, the main characters, and the Irish setting.
Mairenn is such a spirited, independent woman, she always speaks her mind and she wasn’t bred to follow orders. Robert is strong, strict and rigid, he’s used to giving orders and having them obeyed.
Their personalities clash is entertaining, as much as their bantering, but the attraction between them is evident, and their chemistry is intriguing.
I adored to see their relationship growth, they trust each other more and more as the days go by, and their wedding becomes a real one, based on true feelings.
I highly recommend to read this story, you won’t regret it.
