Nicole de Leon has been raised as a princess. She is
willful, wild, beautiful, and dangerous. She has a psychic
talent, which she must keep hidden or be called a witch.
This talent led her to try and kill the man that she now
calls brother-in-law. Due to her father's and brother's
death in the rebellion against the King, she has been made a
ward of the King and he plans to wed her to a Welsh prince
to consolidate his position in the Borders.
Instead she is taken from the convent, where she has lived,
by Rhodri ap Daffyd so she can be delivered to her uncle.
Her uncle plans to marry Nicole off to aid his plans.
Nicole and Rhodri run into a lot of difficulty as they
travel to Wales. She keeps getting distracted and all the
men after them make is hard to go directly to their
destination.
Rhodri is puzzled and delighted by her. They will find
themselves running from her uncle and the King's men. The
passion that flares between the two of them will set
everyone's plan back.
The characters in MAGIC IN HIS KISS are interesting and keep
the reader
entranced. While I enjoyed the first book the most, this is
an interesting and enjoyable addition to the series.
By order of King Stephen, Nicole de Leon has been confined
to Bledloe Abbey since her father's death eight years ago.
As an orphaned noblewoman, she has always known that she
would be married off to strengthen King Stephen's political
position. But as she reached marriageable age, she never
dreamt that her extended family would come to her aid and
prevent this unwanted marriage. For Nicole's uncle, Connorap
Maelgwn, has always despised King Stephen and would do
anything to thwart him...even commit an act of war by
kidnapping the bride the King needs to solidify an alliance.
But Connor can't charge through England with an army. He
needs a warrior who's trustworthy...a warrior like Rhodri ap
Dafydd.
Rhodri ap Dafydd, a bard and warrior, has one purpose: to
bring Nicole de Leon and home to Wales. He has no interest
at all in politics--he's merely helping a friend. But from
the moment he lays eyes on Nicole, friendship is the last
thing on his mind. With her fiery nature and her sharp
tongue, Nicole is unlike any woman he has ever met. But
falling in love with her was never an option. Brought
together by fate but soon torn apart by war, can these two
star-crossed lovers find a future together?
