Resumen del Editor

He was a legend on the battlefield, but Aric Neville, known throughout England as the White Lion, had had his fill of intrigue and bloodshed. So he threw down his sword and walked away, to live a solitary life, cultivating a reputation as a sorcerer. But his prized tranquility was shattered when the villagers brought him a bride. Gwenyth de Auburd was a raven-haired beauty too impudent to ignore and too tempting to resist. When the war raging around them sucked Aric into his past again, he also fought a losing battle against his undeniable desire for the luscious, willful maiden...only to learn that he had come to cherish her as his wife.

Contains mature themes.

Narrator and story was amazing and fun!

I enjoyed how the author intertwined history into her novel. Her writing and the characters are so relatable and unique. The story flows well and is descriptive as if you are watching a movie play out in your mind.

I have to say the performance by the voice actor made the story even more enjoyable. When I search out the narrator, to see what other stories he has done.

Meh..,

It was ok to pass the time doing dishes but this book was nothing special.

History…

During a time of actual history this author sets this very interesting love story of two people who are forced to marry. A former knight and a former lady are just trying to get the n wording th their lives but are forced to confront some very dangerous plot twists. It is a wonderful story with good narration which keeps you spellbound throughout.

More Please!!

I had no idea that Shayla Black wrote historical romance until I stumbled across this audiobook - I loved it! My only regret is that the rest of this series is not yet on Audible so I am (im)patiently waiting for the continuation :)

This book is set near the end of the War of the Roses and Aric Neville, famed Yorkist warrior and cousin to Queen Anne, has become disillusioned with the constant fighting, politics and bloodshed. Gwenyth is a saucy, beautiful, spoiled and stubborn yet hilarious character who is both irritating and loveable. As I came to understand her character (and her lamentable circumstances brought on by her cruel family) I was charmed by her creative insults, her refusal to be silenced, and her compassionate nature.

Shelley Bradley (a.k.a. Shayla Black) weaves a Phillipa-Gregory-meets-Sylvia-Day tale with skill, humor and sensuality. Tim Campbell is talented as ever in his narration of His Lady Bride. There is some explicit sex in the book but by no means does it take over the story-line. A well-written, sexy, medieval tale of love, politics, war, family, and duty. Keep them coming!!

Female is a bit trite

Not sure I like the female lead. Her thought process was rather simple and her character flat while the rest was well rounded

Great Start to a Series

Shelley Bradley is a new author for me and a nice surprise. I like Aric Neville's character, and you will understand the reason for his choices. However, Gwenyth de Auburd got on my nerves. You learn early on why she has such an attitude, still she is so selfish. I like the development of the story and the surprises along the way. I am looking forward to book 2. Tim Campbell is always great.

Irritating Lady

Started out pretty good, but the leading lady who was supposed to be strong and spunky, became irritating enough, I wanted to slap her. Her name calling was forced and no longer cute by the end. And every action up to the last 10 minutes showed her to be a unrepentant gold digger. Then at the last second she is suddenly so in love she would give it all up for him.

Unacceptable read but I could not even complete it till the end. The only reason I took it up was for Team

I wouldn’t advise to read this book. The only reason I read it is because the narrator is Team Campbell. The story is so dull and it’s drones on and on with their bickering. I did not like it at all.

Reminds me of "Taming of the Shrew"by Shakespheare

The beginning of this book reminds me of the Taming of the Shrew which is a very witty play by Shakespeare. What makes that play and this book witty is that the lead female character are very smart, quick and sharp on the tongue. They say what's on their mind and don't hold back. A lot of cussing too! Quite entertaining.

Having gone through many of Shayla Black's books, I have enjoyed them all. I'm very familiar with her dark, violent and over-the-top steamy books. However, this book is a totally different genre. I was pleasantly shocked by how eloquently this book is written with the perfect English of it's time. I love this time/place and Shayla wrote it to perfection with a little bit of actual history. I could imagine it all.

The narration is done so well that often I thought it was two people talking. Tim is awesome!

I can't wait for the next book in this series. I highly recommend this book. Enjoy!

Great series

I'm enjoying this series very much. I can't stop listening to it. this book is really great. a little slow in the beginning but I love the history and the romance.
