The Raveling by Tamara Leigh


My review today is on the Medieval Romance, The Raveling. This is the eighth book in the Age of Faith Series. I just love Medieval Romances. I'm really glad I didn't have to live their lives but I do enjoy reading about it. I think I might be addicted to them. This one is well written, action packed and full of faith. I hate to see the series come to an end but I do look forward to the next one. I know you are going to love it.
Sir Elias De Morville is the second son of a noble so he was sent out to foster to become a knight but his heart wasn't in it so he became a troubadour. Now his older brother is dead and he is the heir but his father demands he comes back to their chateau, marry a suitable wife and bare sons. But Sir Elias now a knight and the possessor of the coveted Wulfrith dagger has other plans. He sets out to save a boy that could be his son.  He feels he must prove worthy of the Wulfrith dagger that ranks him among the greatest of knights. The quest becomes much harder when he takes the woman who rescues the foundlings and has become a mother to the boy with him. He is drawn to the mysterious woman from the Abby. He can't let himself fall for this woman who is so wrong for him.
Honore of no surname was left at the Abby as a babe. She was born with a cleft palette and her mother refused to look upon her. Her mouth has been repaired but she is very conscious of the scar so she hides behind a veil. She has dedicated her life to the children that are unwanted and left in the woods for the animal to destroy. When one of her boys is taken and put in a carnival she is determined to rescue the boy. Her greatest hope of recovering him is a knight who believes he might be the boys father. She is drawn to the man but knows she dare not reveal her face.
 A rebel priest asks assistance to cross into France. He is in flight from King Henry. She recognizes him but keeps it to herself. And prays the necessary deception does not lay ruin to Elias and his family. A journey to find and rescue several children being exploited and save the boy who could be Elias son. God has a plan for these two, a plan for a hope and a future. God has a plan for you too, a good plan and not for evil. Give him your heart and watch Him turn your life around.
