The Innocent

De: Bertrice Small

Narrado por: Susan Duerden

Deceptively fragile-looking, Eleanore of Ashlin had promised her life to God...until fate intervened. With her brother's untimely death, Eleanore - known as Elf to those who love her - becomes the heiress of an estate vital to England's defenses. She is ordered by royal command to wed one of the king's knights rather than take her final vows. With resistant heart, but ever obedient to King Stephen's will, she complies.

Ranulf de Glandeville is all too aware that his innocent bride wants no man; yet his patience, gentle hand, and growing love for his spirited young wife soon awaken Eleanore to passions she never knew, or desired...until now.

But their love is not secure from the wicked schemes of an evil woman who hates Eleanore with all her black heart - and she will seek to destroy the innocent in a depraved plot that will put Eleanore's life in jeopardy and her faith in love to its greatest test....

Contains mature themes.

Absolutely, not Betrice small’s best book

I am an avid fan of Bertrice Small. However, I thought this book was weak in the storyline, and, who narrates the book is absolutely a maker or dealbreaker. I either like reading the book myself or having it read by Justine Eyre. I’m very picky. But even with the lousy narrator, I thought this book was weak. It’s almost like it wasn’t written by Bertrice Small or she was pressured to just get something out for her publisher. It was actually pretty awful.
