Une histoire passionnante ! On retrouve ici une intrigue très présente (et très violente) sans que cela n'étouffe l'histoire entre les personnages. Rohan est un héro comme on les aime tout en muscle et testostérone et il possède en plus un passé torturé et un caractère possessif qui en font un personnage irrésistible ! Isabel est une femme dévouée et courageuse, tout le contraire de ces héroïnes insipides que l'on trouve parfois.Un autre point fort de ce livre est le nombre important de personnages secondaires tous plus sympathique les uns que les autres. On sent se profiler les prochains tomes et c'est plus que prometteur ! J'ai vraiment hâte de les lire ... So this is the beginning of a new series about a group of knights bound together by unspeakable torture.The beginning hinted at something meatier and gritty than what I actually got when I dived in to read. I have only recently begun to enjoy medieval novels. I find them a bit more stereotypical than the stereotypical Regencies. Again, the set up hinted at meatier characters ala Through A Dark Mist by Marsha C. And yet, I don't know that I really liked either the hero or heroine. On the other hand, I have liked many of Connie Mason's medieval novels. Those have been guilty pleasures. I guess I have to take points off this book because it tricked me. First half of book:Hero: I own your lands now and I want you. Give me your virginity.Heroine: No way. Middle of book:Hero: You will burn for me.Heroine: In your dreams.Last half of bookHero: I will have you yet and explore all your charms.Heroine: I will be ruined. Save me for a husband that I don't think will ever come. The hero BEGS and flirts and taunts his way through the whole book. How did he fall in love with this girl? Is it because she withholds? Is it because she talks back? I don't know. She finally lets him have it after all of their verbal sparring. Gee, what convinced her? The supporting characters will eventually get their own books. The only one who interested me is Thorin. I'm sure he is probably the hero of Book 2. The villains are not really villainous and the addition of the hero's useless brother is kind of well, useless. Overall,it was a quick read but I really wanted more from it.
Do You like book Le Maître De Mon Coeur (2008)?
Sexy medevil warriors of course. Fiesty heroine - always my favorite kind.
