Through a Dark Mist
4.  Through a Dark Mist by Marsha Canham
The list author says:
  "The first in a trilogy, a bit of a take off of the Robin Hood Legends. Grand, glorious fun"
Used & New from: £0.31
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

In the Shadow of Midnight
5.  In the Shadow of Midnight by Marsha Canham
The list author says:
  "The second of Canham's trilogy.  This one is a bit heavier going in intrigue and history than the other two, but well worth it in my opinion"
£5.99   Used & New from: £0.01
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews)

The Last Arrow
6.  The Last Arrow by Marsha Canham
The list author says:
  "The last of the trilogy.  Great fun, great romance, lots of action and the author's tongue is firmly planted in her cheek throughout the entire series"
Used & New from: £0.01
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)

The Marsh King's Daughter
7.  The Marsh King's Daughter by Elizabeth Chadwick
The list author says:
  "This was a bit different from the author's usual story -- you really won't find many lords, ladies and knights in this one."
£6.89   Used & New from: £0.01
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (14 customer reviews)

The Love Knot
8.  The Love Knot by Elizabeth Chadwick
The list author says:
  "A very nice story, Catrin was stubborn to a fault, Oliver steadfast and honorable, a truly evil villain and a surprise return from the past of someone long thought dead."
Used & New from: £6.81
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (10 customer reviews)

The Champion
9.  The Champion by Elizabeth Chadwick
The list author says:
  "An interesting concept using the tourney circuit as a back drop, giving you an entrance into an area most of us know nothing about."
£6.89   Used & New from: £0.01
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (13 customer reviews)

The Conquest
10.  The Conquest by Elizabeth Chadwick
The list author says:

Honor's Splendour
12.  Honor's Splendour by Julie Garwood
The list author says:
  "One of Garwood's earlier books and a bit heavy on the bodice ripping. Still very enjoyable and sprinkled with laugh out loud moments.  I wish she'd write a sequel on this one"

The Bride

Lady of the Glen
15.  Lady of the Glen by Jennifer Roberson
The list author says:
  "A great Romeo and Juliet love story, but there's a lot of sad history here as well. Don't let this new cover deceive you, this in not a bodice ripper!"

A Love Through Time (Time Passages)
25.  A Love Through Time (Time Passages) by Terri Brisbin
