Battle-weary knight Marc de Sens has never encountered a woman like Sunniva of Wereford: beautiful, brilliant, and miles above the curs who call themselves her kin. Alas, she is promised to another and Marc's obligation is to his three orphaned nieces. But when Sunniva's circumstances suddenly change, Marc learns the truth about her 'betrothal'...A rough-hewn knight so gentle with children intrigues Sunniva, who never knew a kind word or caring touch from any man until Marc rescued her from the grimmest of fates. When her loutish father and brothers are killed, Sunniva is finally free, but her troubles are far from over. Although Marc has appointed himself her protector, he has a dark secret - as well as an uncanny ability to disarm her completely.

A brave but gentle knight and a clever, feisty woman in dire circumstances plus a few misunderstandings and you're off on a swashbuckling read!

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book has both good imagery and characterisation. These combined with an intriguing storyline developing in an accurate, evocative setting transport the reader back to the early medieval period. Interest levels are high throughout. Altogether a most satisfying good read. Well Done!

A Knights Captive started with an ok but quickly deteriorated.
I found this book a very slow read with a poor story line, poor characters with no enthusiasm for anything. There was no development of romance, one minute strangers then loads of endearments between the main characters with nothing in between.
Defiantly no page turn er but I did finish the book.
