On her way to her wedding Princess
Gisela’s ship is attacked by pirates and she is gravely injured helping her men
defend the ship. Her men rush her to King John of Lydia who is a renowned
healer in the hopes that he will be able to save her, but when they finally
arrive the princess’s injury has become life threatening. Through determination
and prayer King John is able to use the knowledge he has of herbs to save her
life, but when Princess Gisela was brought to his castle it may be the catalyst
to a war.
I started reading the love inspired
novels when I was twelve, as I had become a romance fan and my mother didn’t
want me reading something inappropriate. I fell in love with the Christian
romance books fifteen years ago yet this is my first time reading one of the
Historical versions. Rachelle McCalla has done a wonderful job in bringing to
life 800 A.D. with action and romance what could go wrong? At times though
Gisela is not what I would expect from a woman in this time period, she is
highly knowledgeable in fighting, strategic maneuvers, and building. Though
this does make the character truly interesting I am not quite sure it fits the
time period, but then again I wasn’t there so how would I know? I did have a
lot of fun reading this book, you can’t help but become wrapped up into the
story.
