Always a responsible and trustworthy daughter, Gwendolyn de
Leon manages the great hall at Camelen in the absence of
her father and brother. When they do not return from
battle, she fights to protect both her sisters and her home
from Alberic of Chester, the conquering knight who's come
to make Camelen his personal holding. Alberic also plans to
claim Gwendolyn as his wife.
Gwendolyn also protects a family secret far greater than
land and more powerful than fighting men. Hidden carefully
within the brickwork in her bedroom, a pendant and a scroll
reveal instructions for summoning the Pendragon, King
Arthur, back from Avalon to again rule England in her time
of need. According to the legend, Gwendolyn also needs the
family ring, which is now is firmly stuck on Alberic's
finger. Her husband reluctantly listens to the legend and
mocks her belief in the magic pendant. But the political
situation in England is very uncertain, and he cannot deny
the power of the ring.
At first, Gwendolyn acts in the best interest of her
sisters, then in the best interest of Camelen, but as her
attraction to her husband and her curiosity for the
marriage bed increase, she hopes to find a little MIDNIGHT
MAGIC of her own.
Anton's realistic medieval setting is populated with strong
characters who resist their attraction rather than risk
their emotions. She interweaves interesting details of the
estate, the clothing and the class system with a magical
legend of King Arthur as the basis for a sexy romance. The
magical elements are subtle, and this very enjoyable
romance should please both readers of historical and
paranormal romance.
One Man's Fortune
From the moment the warrior arrives to claim her and her
land, Gwendolyn de Leon's reaction is swift and fierce. She
refuses to yield, not to the knight who slew her brother in
battle. But Alberic of Chester is a powerfully sensual man,
intent on taking what is now rightfully his by king's decree.
One Woman's Destiny
Gwendolyn has one hope for deliverance: invoking a powerful
spell with an ancient ring. Yet the seal of the dragon is
now on Alberic's finger. To wrest it away and avenge her
family's honor, she must seduce him. But will her own heart
surrender first?
