This is one of my favorite books. I've read it more than once. It is a King Arthur story different than any other I've read. It's also written by a romance author who likes to write steamy romance. She depicts Arthur in such a sexy way and he doesn't even fall in love with Gwenevere. He does fall in love though..very deeply in love and the romance has such a powerful effect that certain abilities appear which I really shouldn't give away : ) You have to buy this book used because it's out of print.
