Lord of Winter

Lords of de Royans, Book 2

By: Kathryn Le Veque

Narrated by: Brad Wills

Length: 11 hrs and 24 mins

Publisher's summary

AD 1187. They call him the Great Defender. As Richard the Lionheart's most powerful general, Sir Juston de Royans is as moody as he is skilled. Reminiscent of the ancient warrior Achilles, Juston fights when it is necessary, instead choosing to command the powerful men beneath him. Never wrong in action or command, he has never lost a battle, and when he finds himself in the midst of a terrible siege at Bowes Castle, he predictably emerges the victor, with the lady of the keep as his prize.

And that's when the trouble begins.

When the never-wrong egotist meets the flame that will melt his frozen heart, a romance of epic proportions happens.

Lord of Winter

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, it kept me interested on what would happen to the lord of winters.

Lord of Winter

I enjoy KLV’s medieval romances a lot, but it always makes me shake my head in bemusement when the King’s most powerful knights are able to marry whomever they want without asking the King’s permission, lol.

Lord of Winter

Another great Le Veque! Kathryn creates lovable male characters that you don't want to leave!

5 "BLOWN AWAY" STARS

This is my first book by Kathryn Le Veque and I must stay that I am blown away. She tells such a vivid story. This was a good story of lost but finding true long in the end. Justin of de Royans was such a great character. He was a no nonsense man that loved fiercely. I am searching for my next Le Veque now.

Brad Wills did an awesome job with narration. He made you feel like you were inside the story.

Compassion was something that may get you killed.

He was a great war Lord, whose skills were wanted by those in power. Unfortunately, that meant not only he, but his family was targets from those that opposed him.
Once his family had been destroyed, his heart hardened and he became the Lord of Winter, because he caused devastation like the hardest of winters.
This is until a certain prisoner was thrust into his life. Then a thraw began, to defrost his ice cold heart.

Excellent!

At first,I didn’t know if I would like Justin de Royans; he was a tough, no nonsense, and initially appeared lacking compassion. Lady Emera was a good match for him; their romance builds slowly. The ending was edge of your seat wonderful. Kathryn gave her readers an exciting story well narrated by Brad Wills. Thank you both.

He's not so cold after all.

The Lord of Winter has a heart that needs to be warmed. I was happy to hear him find the one who could help him become a better and greater man. I enjoy the stories Kathryn Le Veque gives us and this one was no exception. Another good audio to add to my growing collection.

Yes

Another successful story. Love this authors work and the narrator does a good job here!

in need of a good copywriter

The story is engaging but atrociously written. "Show don't tell" was never more needed. The copywriter would have solved this, so why was this important part of the authorship team omitted (or ignored, as the case may be)? Faced with such a badly written story, the narrator's odd voicings helps a little in covering up some of the books flaws, so the stilted narration must be forgiven, at least a little. Next time the narrator should tell the author to hire and listen to a good copywriter before agreeing to lower his reputation with such a book.

superb story! Edge of my seat excitement at times.

Wonderfully narrated. Loved it. Am planning to listen a second time. Thank you Kathryn Le Veque and Brad Wills.
