Average customer review:Product Description
Fearless men, their allegiance is to one another, to the oppressed, and to the secret society known as the Brotherhood of the Sword—and they must never surrender to the passionate yearnings of their noble hearts.
A Lady of Love
Beautiful, peace-loving Rowena knows that Stryder of Blackmoor is a warrior, and is therefore a man to be shunned.
But something burns in the eyes of this powerful knight that she has never seen in others of his kind: a tenderness, and a need to love and be loved. Yet to enter his world would be madness—against every principle by which she has lived her life—so she must resist the yearning that would draw her into his arms.
A Man of War
Duty bound to battle for right, Stryder has never desired the comforts of home and hearth—until he gazed upon the exquisite face and form of the incomparable Rowena. He dares not succumb to her sensuous charms, for Stryder is a man sworn to know no love. But when treachery and danger threaten, the noble knight must stand as the unsuspecting lady's champion—though his actions could cost him his honor, his heart. . . and his forbidden dream of happiness.

About the Author
New York Times bestselling author Kinley MacGregor lives a life of extraordinary danger...as does any woman with three sons, a husband, a menagerie of pets, and a collection of swords that all of the above have a major fixation with. But when not running interference (or dashing off to the emergency room), she can be found chained to her computer where she likes to play with all her imaginary friends. With more than ten million copies of her books in print, in 26 countries, she certainly has a lot of friends to play with, too.
Writing as Kinley MacGregor and Sherrilyn Kenyon, she is the author of several series including: The Dark-Hunters, Brotherhood of the Sword, Lords of Avalon, and BAD. With an international, cult following, her books have appeared in the top three on the New York Times, Publishers Weekly, and USA Today bestseller lists.

dark champion the brotherhood of the sword
unknown to me prior to ordering I really enjoyed this author and her tales. It was well written historically accurate and a good escape read. thanks
4 Stars....Great Characters
I really like this book...great characters with interesting lives. I know this was the beginning of a series but there were too many questions left unanswered in the end. More should have been concluded and there would still have been room for leaving the reader wanting more. Nevertheless, a fast moving and enjoyable read...you won't find yourself skimming through these pages.
It's Just OK - Maybe It Deserves 2 1/2 or 3 Stars...But Why Are So Many People Handing Out 4 & 5 Stars? I Was Disappointed!
When I see a book that has an average of 4 or 5 stars by reviewers, I expect a really good book. This book is just OK. I don't understand why so many reviewers are leaving 4 or 5 stars for a "just OK" book.
Listen up people! If you're going to write a review, try to be a little more careful with those stars! I would have given this book 2 1/2 or 3 stars, but decided to go with 1 star to help fix the average rating of this book. I wouldn't have felt so disapointed if more reviewers were discerning and accurate with their ratings.
