A Knight's Vow
Lynn Kurland · MacLeod #2.6
Four medieval knights make solemn vows — one must protect a maiden from modern-day Manhattan.
Description
Set during the misty Middle Ages, when brave knights in shining armor rescued fair maidens and chivalry and honor were prized above all things, this quartet of novellas from some of the genre's best-known writers takes the concept of the vow and spins it into four very different yet thematically linked medieval tales. Lynn Kurland - The Traveller (MacLeod #2.6)(de Piaget/MacLeod #7.5) A bedraggled knight makes a solemn vow to protect, defend, and rescue any and all maidens in distress - even those from Manhattan... Patricia Potter - The Minstrel A vow to marry for love transforms a marquis into a minstrel who must sing for his supper - and for a woman whose heart is true... Deborah Simmons - The Bachelor Knight A forgotten vow comes back to haunt the greatest knight in all the land,when a fair maiden asks for hand in marriage... Glynnis Campbell - The Siege Trapped underground with his unwilling betrothed, a determined knight vows to free her - body and soul...
