When injured knight Simon Brevriene arrives at Montreau convent, Cicely de Valois, a pure beauty who longs to escape her dreary cloistered life to experience the world, heals his wounded body and persuades him to take her with him on a journey across England--one filled with passion and peril. Origi
A knight with nightmares, a novice with dreams of passion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Sounds like an intersting story, but it lacked something. Cicely has spent 10 years in a nunnary but hasn't taken vows--to a regious order anyway, though she did vow her father she would never be a nun. She sees her chance when she saves Simon, a physically and mentally tormented knight from the Crusades. She finds a way to make him take her with him when he leaves. During their battle to stay together and marry-Cicely offers her body to Simon at every turn in the road, Simon tries to keep her chaiste no matter what. Well of course Cicely wins, but by then I really didn't care.
