The Knight's Redemption

September 2004

The Curse of Spinsterhood Lay Upon Her....

But Ariana Glamorgan swore she would dispel the fog that clouded men's minds and be seen as she really was-- particularly by Roarke Barret, a knight of great prowess beset by sorrows of his own. For prophecy foretold him as the true husband of her heart.

'Twas no matter who Roarke wed as long as the lady was Welsh. However, secrets made a poor dowry and in hiding her true identity, Ariana brought lies in abundance to the marriage bed. He'd been deceived... and yet Roarke remained intrigued by this woman who'd awakened magic in his soul!

Read an excerpt

"After focusing on Roarke's half-brother, Lucian, in The Wedding Knight (2004) Rock, a RITA Award nominee, now gives Roarke a lady of his own as she deftly choreographs the delicate dance of seduction between her two protagonists into a richly sensual romance kissed with a bit of magic. "
                      -- John Charles for Booklist

"A highly readable medieval romance with an entertaining touch of the paranormal... The plot is pleasantly complex, the setting well developed, the heroine and hero traditional and romantic and the ending happily interesting."
                      --Romantic Times, 4 stars

"Her historical romances are vibrant – filled with likeable characters and settings that are not as commonly used. There are plenty of English settings, but Ms. Rock takes her readers to Wales in 1260. The fresh setting, enjoyable characters and delightful romance are not to be missed."
                       --Roundtable Reviews

"Joanne Rock does it again with this gripping tale of knights and ladies. THE KNIGHT'S REDEMPTION is a fabulously sultry story..."
                      --Romance Junkies

"Full of mystery, action, romance and a truly dramatic and heroic ending that had me closing the book with a sigh, a smile and a yearning for another Joanne Rock book."
                    --Fallen Angel Reviews
