5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely romance that will sweep you away!, October 23, 2004

By	Vicki Williamson (Monroe, Ga United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Knight and the Dove (Kensington Chronicles, Book 4) (Paperback)

This is the third book in this series that I have read and it is my favorite. The story was so well-written that I felt as if I was actually transported back to the middle-ages. Even though Mrs. Wick is criticized for creating "unbelievable" characters in many of her books, I felt that in this particular book the characters were more than believable. I enjoyed her consistancy as there is nothing I dislike more than to read a book that is to take place during a particular period of time but the language or the "scenery" is not of that time frame.

My favorite thing about the book was following Bracken and Megan as they grew from strangers to lovers, and how they grew in their spiritual walk together. I also enjoyed following Bracken as he learned to court and woo his wife. It was so tender and sweet that by the time he tells Megan he loves her you can't help but cheer out loud.

Anyone who enjoys a good, clean, not to mention Christian, romance, would certainly enjoy this book. I highly recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars I Loved It!!!, April 19, 1997

By A Customer

Follow the journeys of a young maiden in King Henry's era, and learn of the struggles of life way back then. What would it be like to be told, "You have to marry him" or, "You have to marry her"? I can relate to Megan, and I love to laugh, cry, and even be stubborn right along with her. I enjoy following her mischevious acts, and like to imagine, what if that was me? This is a MUST-READ book

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the Series, January 2, 2005

By	Elizabeth Merry (Moran, MI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Knight and the Dove (Kensington Chronicles, Book 4) (Paperback)

It all begins with an order from King Henry that Bracken must marry one of Lord Vincent's daughters, the beautiful Marigold scorns the idea of marrying a mere Earl and refuses to marry him, so the task falls upon Megan. She is taken from her home at a convent and thrown into Bracken's home. Mistaken as a servant at first, she spends her first days sleeping in blacksmith shop. When Bracken finally appears she makes herself known and then the trouble begins.
After weeks of quarreling, misunderstandings, and a few attempts of running away, they are married. King Henry, pleased at the obedience of Bracken, makes him an Duke. Upon hearing the news, Marigold goes mad with jealousy and is determined to get Bracken for herself . . . the only problem is that her sister is married to him and Bracken is very much in love.
The Knight and the Dove has to be my favorite of this series. I am ever amazed that Lori Wick never seems to disappoint when I go to pick up one of her books.
