Medieval Tales of Faith and Love
Lovely Faith filled Series
I enjoyed reading these books by Melanie Dickerson on Kindle
I delight in Medieval tales like this filled with interesting characters
And information about this period in History. I love how the author weaves her tale around
Familiar stories from my childhood. Each tale is filled with courageous people who find Gods goodness and mercy in their trials.

Loved it
This book was lots of fun to read. It is a book that you will not find uncomfortable to read either. So many books today are filled with smut, but not this one. You will enjoy a lovely love story.

Good stuff, worth the buy!
The first two novels directly tie-in to each other, and the other is set in the Hagenheim series. Same world, but unrelated.
