Adelstan Cawdor was hired to escort Lord Malgor’s betrothed to him and he thought that would be an easy job, till he meets Rhiannon for the first time. He is absolutely bewitched by her, but he doesn’t want to act on his attraction because he is honor and duty bound even when his heart demands something else.
Rhiannon always knew that she had to marry a man of her father’s choosing, that was her duty as the daughter of the Laird of Clan MacKay and so far she has always done her duty, till she meets Adelstan. Both of them try to fight their feelings, but true love can’t be ignored. Will those star-crossed lovers find a way to be together?
In THE CONQUEST we also meet the hero & heroine from THE BARGAIN again, but you can read the book easily without reading THE BARGAIN prior to it, because they play a short but important role. THE CONQUEST’s hero made his first appearance in THE BARGAIN, too. Since than he has matured and become a loyal warrior. I was already intrigued in his character and was very curious about his story and I have to tell you that I wasn’t disappointed.
THE CONQUEST is a sensual story full of action, that will sweep you away to the time after William the Conquerer’s invasion. Ms. Templeton is on her best way to make herself a place among the best medieval historical romance authors.
It’s a wonderful story that really enchanted me and I was more than a little sad when I reached the last page. I really hope that Ms. Templeton is going to write more historical romances.
