Miriel may be responsible for running the household, but she's not as meek as her warrior sisters believe her to be. Miriel has many secrets; one of them being that she's the mysterious Shadow. When a stranger arrives, claiming to want to court the fair Miriel, she's determined to discover what he's really up to.
Hired mercenary Rand la Nuit has come to Rivenloch Castle in hopes of finding the Shadow, so he can receive his reward. In order to get in Rivenloch, Rand declares he's there to court the beautiful Miriel. However, when she arrives and kisses him senseless, claiming to have met him at a tournament, they both know it to be a lie. He will need to conduct his business and try to find out what the young lady is up to before he loses his head and heart to Miriel all together.
KNIGHT'S PRIZE is what you get when you have a mysterious shadow and a notorious mercenary. This story is full of surprises, a lot of action and deception and best of all, the discovery of love and an attraction so forceful Miriel and Rand could burn from the heat. I loved it and highly recommend this medieval romance. You should also read Miriel's warrior sisters' stories: Helena in CAPTIVE HEART and Deirdre in LADY DANGER.
She certainly seems meek and soft-spoken, unlike her
warrior sisters. But once the sun goes down, Miriel of
Rivenloch becomes "The Shadow," the bold, mysterious
renegade who robs the rich to give to the poor. But can she
outwit the devil-may-care mercenary Sir Rand la Nuit, who
has been hired to unmask The Shadow? Miriel doesn't know
Rand's mission-only that his sudden, amorous courtship is
hiding something. Rand doesn't know who The Shadow is-only
that the lovely woman in his arms heats his blood. Touch by
silky touch, kiss by sizzling kiss, the stakes-and their
passions-mount. And once Rand and Miriel disrobe in his
bedchamber, both can lose everything they live for-
including their oh-so-vulnerable hearts.
