The Warrior's Forbidden Virgin
by Michelle
Willingham
Ewan MacEgan has been the heart's desire of Lady
Katherine of Ardennes since she can remember. No one else will
do. Ewan, however, has fallen for her sister, Honore St.
Leger. When Sir Ademar of Dolwyth finds himself alone with
Katherine, he is at a loss for words. Can this sexy warrior and his
passion for Katherine lead him to be bold enough to act and speak in
ways he has not before? Can the language of love sometimes
be more effective than the spoken word? Can they work together to
conquer all the obstacles and even danger in their path?
Michelle Willingham's THE WARRIOR'S
FORBIDDEN VIRGIN serves as a companion to the medieval Irish
historical romance, TAMING HER IRISH WARRIOR. As a Harlequin
Historical Undone, THE WARRIOR'S
FORBIDDEN VIRGIN ramps up the passion level. While this
story works as a stand-alone, it is best read after completion of the
novel in order to avoid spoilers. Knowing the characters
beforehand adds a special dimension to this vignette. Some
of the events will be known to readers of the novel. Michelle
Willingham's THE WARRIOR'S FORBIDDEN
VIRGIN adds a richness to the MacEgan saga in giving the reader
a new perspective on events as seen from Katherine's and Ademar's point
of view. As such, this story answers questions readers might have
had from the novel, but in separating their story, these two characters
get the attention they deserve without distracting from the main
story. Here, they are the main story! Themes of fear and
letting go as well as honor and language enrichen this passionate
medieval adventure.
Kudos to Michelle Willingham for giving MacEgan lovers this medieval
romance vignette! Seeing Katherine through her own eyes is
a fascinating addition. If you love the MacEgan romances, this
story is a must read!
