Romance Historical
The early twelfth century is a time for ambitious men to
prosper, and royal servant John FitzGilbert Marshal is one
of them. Raised high as the kin of the deceased King Henry
battle each other for England's throne, John reaps rich
rewards but pays a terrible price for the choices he makes -
as do his family. His wife, fragile, na�ve Aline is
hopelessly unequipped to cope with the demands of a life
lived on the edge and, when John is seriously injured in
battle, her worst nightmare is realised. Sybilla, bright, forthright sister to the Earl of Salisbury,
finds herself used as a bargaining counter when her brother
seeks to seal a truce with his troublesome neighbour, John
FitzGilbert. And then there is Sybilla's small son, William,
seized hostage by the King for John's word of honour. But
sometimes keeping your honour means breaking your word...

Wow..that was a lot of responsibility. I'd be interested to know if he really said that. If so, did he mean it or was it simply a ploy. Definitely piqued my interest. (Ivy Truitt 12:12pm September 7, 2012)
Medievals are my favorite. And I enjoy learning from the stories I read. I've already learned some interesting facts from your post. I've not read you as yet so thanks for the chance!

I really enjoy reading about English history, and I'm so glad that you took the time to not only keep it alive, but that you took the time and effort to find out the facts, and put them in print. I'm really looking forward to reading your book and finding out more. It sounds like a fascinating read, and I know you just scratched the surface!! Congratulations!!

John fitzGilbert is one of my ancestors, and I was always appalled by his apparent lack of concern for the safety of his son. It will be nice to see a different point of view. (Janie McGaugh 12:34pm September 8, 2012)
What an interesting book...sounds good. Thanks for the chance to win it! (Kimberley Coover 8:44am September 8, 2012)
Medival scenes and the action of doing your duty with granting wishes and wenches seems like it takes a trip into another realm. (Alyson Widen 2:17pm September 8, 2012)
Ah....Medievals..... Elizabeth, I love your books! My heart and soul are in the Medieval era and you sure take me there with your descriptions of the places, people, and times. If I can't actually live when my soul yearns to be living, then I can have the next best thing by delving into the time through authors like you. I cannot wait to add A Place Beyond Courage to my bookshelf. I know that I will not be disappointed with your writing. (Leah Weller 4:34pm September 8, 2012)
