Taming the Earl

A Medieval Historical Romance

Beschreibung

The earl, the horse-whisperer and their web of secrets... 1301A.D. Morwenna can talk to horses. They certainly make better conversation than the feckless youths she's grown up with. But it isn't wise for a young woman with no protector to wield such gifts in an age of witchcraft and superstition. When hard times befall her village, the finger of blame points to Morwenna. And then she is summoned to see the earl... As a younger brother, Angus never expected to become Earl of Wolvesley. Now the safety of everything he holds dear depends on him alone. To secure his estate, he needs a wife and an heir. But his betrothed refuses to name their wedding date until Angus proves he can tame her wild horse. Terrified of what awaits her, Morwenna arrives in Wolvesley to find comfortable lodgings, secure employment and regular coin. In return, all she has to do is train a challenging horse. It would all be so easy - if only the handsome earl didn't set her pulse racing. Angus is a man of learning. As the local law-maker, he is well-used to controlling his emotions - as well as everything else in Wolvesley. The last thing he expects is to fall under the spell of an enchanting horse trainer. The difference in their class and status is more than enough to make Morwenna fear for her heart. But then she discovers that the Earl of Wolvesley is not only the King's judiciary, but a man with a long-held hatred of sorcery. And she is a suspected witch. Morwenna must flee from Wolvesley before Angus discovers the truth about her. But is it already too late? Welcome to the Earls of the North; where the lands are wild and the earls are in need of salvation! Each book in this series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed independently. The Earls of the North Book 1: Gambling with the Earl Book 2: Forced to Marry the Earl Book 3: Taming the Earl

Autor

Elizabeth grew up in a rambling old farmhouse high on the Yorkshire moors, where a sense of history was never far away. She studied English at university, specialising in mythology and folklore and often bemoaning the lack of sword-wielding heroines. After graduating, she spent several years moving between northern France, southern Germany and London, where she worked in travel publishing and PR.She now lives a stone's throw from her childhood home, with her husband, children and a feisty black cat who enjoys interrupting her writing. She plots most of her novels while walking in the rugged Yorkshire countryside, finding endless inspiration in the rolling hills.
