There are not glittering ball rooms and satin dresses in this novel, so if that is what your after then best look somewhere else. But if you are looking for a novel with a heart wrenching romance and historical events then by all means dive right in! Cathrine and William are brought together just days (if that) after her first husband dies in a rebellion against the King. With preconceived notions about his new wife and a instilled lack of trust William manages to make himself quite miserable more often than not; And with Kate's first marriage leaving much to be desired she doesn't make things any easier in the beginning. After several botched starts things seem to be going well and then Kate is kidnapped by the Wellish rebels. With love in his heart but a devils advocate in his ear William heads out to bring back his wife or die trying.... and then you still have a good 1/4th of the book to go! And lets not forget to mention handsome Princes, surprising half brothers, French invaders, secret passageways, The Fierce One, and traveling minstrels who just might be more trouble than there worth... or are they? I will definitely be reading the next book in this series! review courtesy of Romance Junkies:Lady Catherine is forced into marriage with a cowardly brute at a young age. She endures his cruelty until she begins to fear for her child, Jamie. She is looking for a way to protect Jamie, when she overhears her husband plotting to overthrow the king. She feels it is her duty to do the right thing, so she contacts her friend, Prince Henry, and warns him of her husband's nefarious plot. Now, all Catherine has to do is wait for justice to be served, or so she thinks. Catherine's confession doesn't exactly pay off the way she thinks it will. First her husband is killed and the king declares she must move to the tower and live there until she draws her last breath or she can marry. Unfortunately the man she must marry is now in control of her lands, and the decision of what is to become of her also rests in his hands. William FitzAlan, is one of the king's most trustworthy and respected knights. It is no surprise when William is awarded a bride along with her vast lands. From the very first meeting, there is no question as to whether or not he wants her, for there is a strong desire waiting to be unleashed between Catherine and William. Can Catherine and William accept their circumstances and make a marriage work?If you like historical romance, then KNIGHT OF DESIRE is a must read. KNIGHT OF DESIRE is the first book in the series, ALL THE KING'S MEN. Margaret Mallery's debut book, KNIGHT OF DESIRE is a captivating read from start to finish. I did not want to put this one down. The characters were exceptionally strong and their struggles remarkably real. Ms. Mallory also did a great job in capturing all the events that took place during the time period in which KNIGHT OF DESIRE is set. I look forward to reading the next book, KNIGHT OF PLEASURE, in the ALL THE KING's MEN series.
