### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When Love Awaits
*by R***T on November 8, 2013*

It's a great quick read. I give it 4.5 stars. Rolfe and Leonie have a lot of misunderstanding because he lets his ex-mistress stay at his castle, because she lies and tells him she is pregnant. He doesn't think Leonie knows she was his mistress and he believes she thinks Amelia is his ward. Therefore he is not worried about her staying there until the baby is born. He wants time for Leonie to fall in love with him before he tells her about the baby. Unfortunately Amelia is telling Leonie all sorts of things that are not true. Leonie does not say anything to Rolfe as she believes he still wants Amelia, and she doesn't want him to know she cares. Rolfe is faithful to Leonie during the book, unless you want to count the one time he almost gets with her, but doesn't know she is his wife. A mistake he makes before he really knows her. He doesn't know what she looks like because she hid her face during the wedding and their wedding night, because she had been beaten. He left immediately in the morning, and was away trying to seize one of his 7 castles. He hadn't planned on being faithful, since he was only marrying her to gain peace. All that changes once he realizes who she is.I do want to say someone really knocked the violence on this book. I want to say that at the beginning Leonie does not want to marry Rolfe, so her evil stepmother has her man of arms beat up Leonie until she agrees. It is not covered in the book. It goes from you knowing he is going to hurt her, but hasn't yet, to the next morning. So it is not covered at all other than to tell how bad she was beaten. As far as the almost rape thing goes, she is captured and they are getting ready to rape her. They are talking about doing it right then, but have not laid a hand on her yet. Then she is recused before it even starts. I wanted to straighten that out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good story, but , at times, irritating.....
*by M***N on April 11, 2024*

good story, flowed well.i the characters were well developed.....I just became irritated with Rolfe because of his lack of understanding as to how Leonie resented Amelia, Rolfe's former mistress, living in the same home with them......too many secrets, too many misunderstandings as well that interfered...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love in an Arranged Marriage in the times of King Henry II
*by R***N on April 16, 2014*

Set in England in 1176, this is the story of Lady Leonie, sent away by her father to her dower keep because he didn’t want to be reminded of her mother (or so she was led to believe). When her neighbor, Sir Rolfe d'Ambert, a favored knight of King Henry, discovers she owns the land that is causing all his problems, the mercenary Lord of Kempston asks the king for her hand. Leonie knows Rolfe only by reputation and it is not good, but she cannot defy the king. Little does Rolfe know, he is about to get more than he bargained for.This is a fun romp through time when Henry II ruled England and reflects research into the people’s lives in that era. There’s treachery, rogues and villains aplenty with enough adventure to keep you entertained. Rolfe is a worthy hero who will have his way. And Lionie is an honorable woman who will have hers.Of Lindsey’s many novels, I would say this is one of the lighter ones, but still has enough historical detail and enough angst to satisfy.
