Summary: Second Medieval romance of the trilogy lives up to the first
Review:

For the past decade, Jasper FitzHugh worked for his older brother, Randulf, lord of the partially constructed Rosecliffe Castle in Wales. When Queen Matilda summons Rand, he immediately goes. Still, Rand prays he can keep his people out of the civil war. Rand places Jasper in charge of his people and to keep his family safe.

After Rand leaves, the Welsh attack with the beautiful Rhonwen ap Tomas who tries to kill Jasper because he is the hated English. To his shock, Rhonwen opens Rand's eyes to what he has been missing as he falls in love with her. She, to her chagrin, reciprocates his feelings. However, they are on different sides of a local conflict, which places opposing demands on their loyalties. Also adding to their woes is an unknown assailant who has his own treacherous agenda.

The second novel in Rexanne Becnel's wonderful "Rosecliffe" trilogy is an exciting, non-stop Medieval romance that features characters from the previous tale (see THE BRIDE OF ROSECLIFFE). The story line is fast-paced and makes the middle of the twelfth century hum. The lead characters are intelligent and compassionate as they struggle between love and honor. THE KNIGHT OF ROSECLIFFE will leave readers anxiously awaiting the third tale from the magical Ms. Becnel.

Summary: Wow!
Review: I've never before read a book by Rexanne Becnel but for starters this book is fabulous. I really didn't expect to like it because I usually enjoy reading modern day writing and experiences but she made this book highly enjoyable. You never knew what was going to happen next. The charecters were amazing as was the story. I plan on reading a lot more of Rexanne Becnel's books! And I would recommend this to anyone in need of a good exciting read!

Summary: Wow!
Review: Rhonwen, who is Welsh, saved the life of Jasper, who is English, when they both were much younger. Now its years later and they meet again. Rhonwen wants to kill Jasper because of the English supression he represents. Instead the two enemies fall in love. Of course there's a lot more to it, Rhys, another Welshman, first introduced in 'The Bride of Rosecliffe,' thinks he loves Rhonwen. All the heroes and heroines in this book exchange being captive and captor, but it a great book where, of course, love wins out. The plot is certainly set for the next book in the series too. I enjoyed this book as much, if not more, than the first.
