The Rose and Her Knight (Queens and Wars) (Volume 2) Jon Harrington

It is the New Year of 1460. Richard Howard, knight and ex-lover of Queen Margaret arrives at Ludlow Castle. He hopes to set up home in the castle as the new commander with his replacement lover Lady Isabella. His plan was for her to join him once he is settled. Instead, he is betrayed by his so-called friends who have deliberately sent him into danger. The castle is now surrounded by a large enemy army. Unable to contact his beloved, Richard despairs of ever seeing her again. So he has no choice but to build a life without her. And yet during his enforced stay he finds love twice. The first is intense but short lived, bringing him grief. The second is unexpected giving him considerable happiness but proves perilous as well. Richard?s story unfolds against the turmoil and sometimes, violent backdrop of the Wars of the Roses. This is the second book in the eight book series ?Queen and Wars? covering the fifty year period at the end of the fifteenth century. The implication of the title ?The Rose and her Knight? becomes apparent as the story unfolds.
