He's taken her as his prisoner. But she's holding his heart captive. In gaining their freedom, will they lose what matters most?

When Lady Olivia's castle is besieged, she and her sister are taken captive and held for ransom by her father's enemy, Lord Pitt. Loyalty to family means everything to Olivia. She'll save her sister at any cost and do whatever her father asks - even if that means obeying his order to steal a sacred relic from her captor.

As Lord Pitt's commander, Sir Aldric is in charge of the beautiful but feisty new prisoner. He has his hands full attempting to keep Lady Olivia out of trouble. When Lord Pitt throws her in the dungeon and threatens to hang her for stealing, Aldric conceives a plot to save Olivia's life - betrothal to him.

Can Olivia give up the prestigious match her father has arranged with a wealthy marquess in order to marry a lowly knight like Aldric? And can Aldric move beyond his past mistakes to embrace love again? When loyalties are tested, they're thrust into danger that could cost them their love and their lives.

Narrator speaks a bit slowly, great story

Absolutely love the story line. Narrator talks a bit too slowly. However if you speed it up to 1.2 or 1.5 then it’s much more of a normal cadence.

:)

The saddest thing was when it was over because i wanted to keep listening 😂. Excellent book. The reader has a nice tone but is just insanely slow. I think if I listened to it as is then I would pull my hair out. But if you speed her up to about 1.5 then it’s perfect.

Enjoyable

I enjoyed the story. It helped pass the time. The narrator is not as good as some of the other ones that have done Jody Hedlund s books but she did a tolerable job. I would consider it worth the time and money.

So good!

This series has been captivating! it was always difficult to take a break when other things needed to be done.

Just listened for the 4th time!!

Strong female without being overly disrespectful to the male love interest. (Which I appreciate) She has talents but still obviously the men are stronger than her which is realistic which I appreciate as well. The "woman power" theme doesn't go overboard. Fun, sweet, humorous and flirty. One of my favorites! Just listened for the fourth time in the past 2 years!

Good story. AWFUL narration

The story was good. The characters could have been developed a little better. I almost couldn’t make it through due to the narration. It sounded almost like forced wistfulness and very monotone and dull toned-Nothing expressive. Very hard to discern which character was talking many times.

Enjoyable Read

This was an enjoyable read. I loved all the excitement and intrigue and of course the love story. True to form Jody Hudlund has done it again. A hard to put down drawing romance.

Great book for a road trip

Well written, with twist turns and plots. We listen to this book on our road trips, we definitely liked the ending

Okay

If clean romance and clean language with a Christian message are important to you will like this. However it has little dialogue and what dialogue it does isn't rapid fire. It will go into internal musings in the middle of dialogues. I also has very long internal musings that can go on for ten minutes or longer. It's repetitive something that is thought about in a internal dialogue will be then said to another character ever though we already know. Issues are brought up many times even if we already know it's a core issue. It also has a lot of filler, banquets are described in details down to jelly and locks are opened by put the key in the lock and twisting. I don't have a problem with the cleanness but the quality of the writing.
