Description:
[b]THE D'ARGENTS. IT ALL BEGAN WITH A WOMAN.TOO.
Medieval Normandy. Before William the Conqueror conquered, there was the family D'Argent. And a marriage alliance destined to give rise to England's formidable Wulfriths.
BEHOLD THE VICTOR
The day Godfroi D'Argent defeats his brother in a contest of arms, he gains his family's lands. And a less than desirable bride. Certain it will be years before his enemy's daughter grows into a lady of worth, he devotes himself to securing his lordship. When at last Robine assumes her rightful place, Godfroi is unprepared for how much she moves him. Counting it weakness, he refuses to acknowledge the depth of his feelings even to himself-until he falls in battle. With little hope of restoring the warrior, he allows Robine and their young sons to believe him dead. But when the mysterious hermit who pulled him from the battlefield persuades him to return home, it is not to a wife with open arms but one entangled in sin. Is it true only three are needed to salvage a marriage-husband, wife, and God? And what is to be done with proof of Robine's indiscretion?
BEWARE THE SHE-BEAR
Just as Robine's husband rejects her on their wedding night, so too her love. When she becomes his wife in truth and he withholds his heart, she determines to cease loving him. But what proves impossible becomes irrelevant when he is slain. Painfully aware once her period of mourning ends she must provide her sons a protector, she undertakes a journey to her family and is set upon by brigands. In the midst of fiercely defending her children, a chevalier rides to her aid and proves a worthy suitor. When Robine's uncertainty over wedding her betrothed leads to a fall from grace, there is no going back-unless Godfroi returns from the dead. Can she forgive her husband for allowing her to believe he perished? Can he forgive his wife for a sin soon apparent to all? And what of granting the innocent grace?
Set in France during the Duke of Normandy's minority, the eighth and final book in the AGE OF CONQUEST series takes another step back in time to reveal the origin of the D'Argents who became the Wulfriths. In Winter 2021/22, watch for VALOROUS, the first book in the new AGE OF HONOR series that continues the Wulfrith tale in 14th century England.
