A Nobler hero I haven't met in a long time!!!
IT is true, Guy is silent for m ost of the book. But that makes it even better--he is remaining true to his vows...his honor. The whole reason he left the court is to get away from rakes ad rogues and the spoiling of innicents. But I digress. I would weep if a man loved me enough to do what he did. He was Lady Celeste's silent champion through out her whole miserable trip in England. He stayed by her side when she leaned the kind of marriage she was doomed to. He wooed her with sweet love notes, and through mssages sent by another man. AND, he took the dream she told him she had as a child, about a knight coming to rescue her, and turned it into reality. He involved his whole family in creating her perfect knight, the Knight of the Loyal Heart, and made her every dream come true when he fought for her honor on the field. What woman wouldn't want this noble man? Celeste, too, far from being a weakling, had more honor than I would. She remained true to her promise to her father no matter what she knew was to happen. I couldn't have gone through with that!
A truly sensual, loving, LOVELY book that I honestly hated to end. If you want heatfelt love, through honor and sacrifice, read this book. If you want all that, plus you would like to se Shakespeare written into every page, read Ms. Phillips' Halloween Night. Truly a delight for Shakespeare lovers! All in all, I would highly reccomend all books in the Cavendish Chronicles, starting with Three Dog Knight, then Silent Knight, Midsummer's Knight, Halloween Knight, and A Knight in Venice. Best to read them in order, as the stories unfold through each other. Very well written. Huzzah for Ms. Phillips!
