Medieval Monday! Night of the Owl by Judith Sterling!
Today, I’m featuring the talented Judith Sterling and her novel Night of the Owl.
What’s it about?
PhD student Ardyth Nightshade has renounced men and pursues her twentieth-century career with single-minded focus. When fate whisks her to medieval England, she meets her match in a man whose passions mirror her own. Can she sacrifice ambition for a love she never sought?
Hugh, Lord Seacrest confounds all who know him. He refuses to marry without a meeting of minds and hearts, and no lady has even approached his ideal…until Ardyth. But she’s an odd one, with unique skills, shocking habits, and total conviction she needs no man. She also harbors secrets, and in the midst of rumors, plots, and murder, trust is fragile.
A woman outside of her time. A man ahead of his. They must take a leap of faith to forge a bond that will shape history.

Here’s the continuing excerpt from Night of the Owl –
“No one could blame her for staring,” Constance remarked.
“No indeed,” Lady Seacrest agreed. “I’ve known many a sorrier sight than the cleft of Ranulf’s chin.”
“His chin?” Hugh glanced at her over his shoulder. “Is that what enthralls every female in Christendom?”
“ʼTis more than that, I’ll wager.” Robert snickered into his cup.

Medieval Monday! To Love a Scottish Laird by Sherry Ewing!
Today, I’m featuring the wonderful Sherry Ewing and her novel To Love a Scottish Laird.
What’s it about?
Sometimes you really can fall in love at first sight…
Lady Catherine de Wolfe knows she must find a husband before her brother chooses one for her, but none of the knights and lords she knows have caught her eye. A tournament to celebrate the wedding of the Duke of Normandy might be her answer. She does not expect to fall for a man after just one touch.
Laird Douglas MacLaren of Berwyck is invited to the tournament by the Duke of Normandy. He goes to ensure Berwyck’s safety once Henry takes the throne. He does not expect to become entranced by a woman who bumps into him.
Before they can express their feelings, the Duke orders them wed to strengthen ties between his English supporters and the borderland, and then separates them by commanding Douglas’s escort to his home.
Yet, nothing is ever quite that simple. Not everyone is happy with the union of this English lady and a Scottish laird. From the shores of France, to Berwyck Castle on the border between their countries, Douglas and Catherine must find their way to protect their newfound love.

Here’s the continuing excerpt from To Love a Scottish Laird –
But once he grew tired of her ill words, Douglas took her into his arms, pulling her close. She fit there so perfectly, he momentarily overlooked what they were arguing about. He watched in startled fascination when her pupils dilated and her breaths grew shallow. Ah… The undeniable connection they had both forgotten about returned tenfold as he embraced her.
Her hands went to his chest, and he swore his heart leapt at her touch. Bloody hell! Why could the smallest of gestures from this wee woman cause such a reaction?
“For such a beautiful woman, ye can certainly curse like one of my men,” he observed.

Medieval Monday! The Highlander’s Crusader Bride by Cathy MacRae!
Today, I’m featuring the amazing Cathy MacRae and her novel The Highlander’s Crusader Bride.
What’s it about?
Born in the Holy Land only a few years after the Third Crusade, half-Armenian, half-Scot Arbela MacLean is a true daughter of the desert, beautiful and untamed. Trained to be a warrior to avoid her gentle mother’s fate, Arbela has honed her skills with Turkish bow and arrow, sword, and throwing darts—and dreads the day her father choses a man for her to marry.
After more than thirty years in the Holy Land, Donal MacLean, Baron of Batroun, is recalled to Scotland, the last son available to take up leadership of clan MacLean. He brings with him knights, treasure, trade—and a daughter of marriageable age.
Caelen MacKern, known as the Bull of the Highlands, is cynical about women. His first marriage formed an alliance, and he did not grieve when his spoiled, immature bride passed away. He has agreed to marry again—against his better judgement—for the men, means, and coin to recover from a devastating pestilence that all but wiped out his clan.
More than a little resentful at finding himself forced to remarry, Caelen’s proposal to Donal MacLean’s headstrong daughter nevertheless piques her interest. Each will receive what they want most from life—the ability to live as they please without interference from a meddling spouse. But their marriage of indifference will soon change to one of passion that neither Arbela nor Caelen could have predicted.

Here’s the continuing excerpt from The Highlander’s Crusader Bride –
“The priest . . . he . . ..” Arbela’s voice trailed off. She leaned forward, catching Father Sachairi’s gaze. “With respect, Father, ye must repeat the declaration.” She leaned further still, and he bent his ear close. “The verb is conjungo, not congelo.”
The priest gave Arbela a startled look. “What right have ye—”
Donal silenced him with a small wave of his hand. “The lass is correct, Father. Dinnae fash. ’Tis easy to mistake the Latin. But my daughter speaks it well.”

Medieval Monday! Marek by Bambi Lynn
Today, I’m featuring the talented Bambi Lynn and her novel Marek.
What’s it about?
Boring accountant, Kitty Petty, struggles to get through each day one at a time since the brutal
murder of her husband. She spends every free moment caring for her young daughter, until the
night she wakes to find her bed on fire.
Kitty doesn’t know how she got to the year 1196, much less how to get back. But if she doesn’t,
her daughter will be institutionalized. Having failed to save her child from the clutches of a
madman. Kitty vows to protect her future. But going back to her time means risking her own life
and separating her from the knight she has grown to love.
Marek Stone wants to protect his wife from the people of Stonebridge. Katherine has been
declared a demon after her miraculous rise from the funeral pyre, and the villagers want justice.
Kitty must return if she has any hope of saving her daughter. However, the knight who loves her
will do anything to make her stay.

Here’s the continuing excerpt from Marek –
Thane nearly dropped the PSP when it lit up. “Shh. You’ll have to keep it secret. This is an easy game called PacMan. You have to move him through the path and eat as many of these little dots as possible. But don’t get caught.”
