Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<p class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-size:11pt;">PUBLISHERS WEEKLY - &quot;I was engrossed by The Centurion and the Queen, and didn't put it down.&quot;</span></em></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-size:11pt;"> </span></em></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-size:11pt;">SIMPLY ROMANCE REVIEWS - &quot;Historical novels especially historical Romance tend to fall within fairly set parameters and usually tend to be a bit clich. This story breaks out of those parameters and destroys the clichs with a truly refreshing story of love in ancient Britannia.&quot;<br />  <br /> FALLEN ANGEL REVIEWS - &quot;Minnette Meador adeptly weaves in Roman and Celtic words and references [in the Edge of Honor], adding realism to this harsh world. Fans of The Centurion and the Queen will not be disappointed.&quot;<br />  <br /> NIGHTOWL ROMANCE - &quot;I encourage you to try out Minnette%u2019s work and see how enmeshed you will become in her wonderful settings. %u2026this book pulled me in and I read it in two sittings%u2026%u201D </span></em></p>
