Genre: Historical Romance
A Stern Lord for My Lady (Book 1):
A rich heiress who has ruled her lands from an early age, Lady Alicia de Lancres knows herself not to be a meek, biddable woman and has already settled upon a husband who will suit her. Yet King Henry has other plans for her, which include Bertran FitzRolf, a decisive lord who puts Alicia over his knee for discipline in front of the assembled court in order to teach her a lesson in humility.
Not even the powerful Eleanor of Aquitaine can save Alicia from a marriage to the stern lord who delivered the punishment. Forced to wed a man she resents, but whose hazel eyes and large hands stir strange sensations within her, Alicia will come to discover Bertran FitzRolf might not be such an unsuitable husband for her as she’d first thought.
The Blacksmith’s Woman (Book 2):
After the death of her family and the loss of her home, Beth finds herself in London, in a desperate situation which leads to a reckless act. Tom Reed, who is a master blacksmith, feels bound to teach her a memorable lesson about recklessness, even if this means taking her over his knee in a crowded square.
Both the lesson and the man who delivered it are hard to forget, and Beth comes to see that the stern master blacksmith may be the one who can aid her in her hour of need. The only choice she has left is to become his woman, although he vows he will not be lenient with her if she behaves badly.
Tom Reed’s ways are not only harsh, but gentle at times, and soon Beth begins to yearn not only to be touched by his strong hands, but also to find out the secrets mirrored in his dark eyes.
Lord Tristram’s Love Match (Book 3): Judith of Redmore loves her home fiercely, but she knows the only choice she has left is to surrender her castle to Tristram de Brunne, hoping he would show her people mercy. It is not mercy that she expects for herself. After all, she and Tristram were married for a while until she petitioned the Church for an annulment, and Judith knows he feels enraged by her betrayal.
Yet, Tristram proclaims himself merciful, and deigns to let Judith know they are still married, in spite of her efforts to sever their bond. Instead of banishing her to a convent, he is prepared to keep her as his wife and as the lady of Redmore.
But the harsh lesson in discipline he teaches Judith in front of all to see feels less like mercy and more like revenge to her. Judith cannot bring herself to leave her beloved home, so she is forced to choose life by the side of a stern husband who plainly hates her. And she attempts to hate him in return, although she used to love him madly once, when things between them were far different.
This is book three in the Her Stern Husband series and can be enjoyed independently.
