ON TO THE STORY
In the time of Saladin and Richard the Lionheart
During the Third Crusade...
After escaping from a life sentence at a convent, Lady Aveline of Froulingham fulfills her ambition of linking up with King Richard’s forces in the Holy Land. Her quest is to find her former lover, Sir Quentin de Ballon, sentenced by the Church to fight in the crusade for thirteen years as punishment for their illicit love affair.
Aveline finds herself in the midst of the war between Richard the Lionheart's and Saladin's armies, as they battle for control of Jerusalem. She quickly earns the monicker, The Green Devil --- feared by Saladin's army for her formidable skills with sword and bow.
But... they do not know she's a woman.
As her search for Quentin continues, her love wavers when she finds herself increasingly attracted to a protective French knight, Sir Guy de Toulouse. Together with her squire Athlestan, he has been her companion throughout her long sea voyage to the Holy Land.
Can her love for Quentin withstand the cruelties of war?
How can she continue hiding her true identity from the king when she is asked to join the King's Guard?
Find out in LOVE and BLOOD, The Chronicles of Aveline Book 2.
A saga of love, history, adventure, and suspense.
