Description

<p><span><span>Harold Godwineson, the Last Anglo-Saxon King, owed everything to his father. Who was this Godwine, first Earl of Wessex and known as the Kingmaker? Was he an unscrupulous schemer, using King and Witan to gain power? Or was he the greatest of all Saxon Earls, protector of the English against the hated Normans? The answer depends on who you ask. He was befriended by the Danes, raised up by Canute the Great, given an Earldom and a wife from the highest Danish ranks. He sired nine children, among them four Earls, a Queen and a future King. Along with his power came a struggle to keep his enemies at bay, and Godwine's best efforts were brought down by the misdeeds of his eldest son Swegn. Although he became father-in-law to a reluctant Edward the Confessor, his fortunes dwindled as the Normans gained prominence at court. Driven into exile, Godwine regathered his forces and came back even stronger, only to discover that his second son Harold was destined to surpass him in renown and glory.</span></span></p>

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<p><font color="#000000" size="2"><strong>Phoebe Jordan, Talk About My Favorite Authors<br /></strong></font>&quot;Jessica Coulter Smith delievers another wonderfully written paranormal romance that had me totally captivated from start to finish as well as making me want more by the time I read the last sentence of the novel.&quot;<br />Rating: 4 out of 5</p> <p><strong>Melissa, Browler Books<br />&quot;</strong>This book didn't disappoint. I sat down to read it thinking the same thing everyone thinks about a series. The 2nd one is never as good. Well Jessica has changed my mind about that. She has delivered another great story and I can't wait to read the next one.&quot;<br />Rating: 5 out of 5</p> <p><strong>Rose Petal Reviews</strong><br />&quot;Jessica Coulter Smith has done it again. This is book 2 of the Ashton Grove Werewolves series; so if you haven't read book 1, I would recommend that you read it.  This book didn't disappoint.&quot;<br />Rating: 5 out of 5</p> <p><strong>Alicia, PNR (ParaNormal Romance)<br /></strong>&quot;Fans of Jessica Coulter Smith will enjoy reading <em>Moonlight Hero</em>, the second book in the Ashton Grove Werewolves series. <em>Moonlight Hero</em> picks up where Moonlight Protector leaves off, continuing the story of the Andrews brothers. I read the first of this series and I have to admit that Moonlight Hero is even better.&quot;</p> <p><strong>Missy, PNR (ParaNormal Romance)<br /></strong>&quot;I loved book two of the Ashton Grove Werewolves even more than I did book one (and I thoroughly enjoyed Moonlight Protector). Ms. Coulter Smith just keeps getting better and better.&quot;</p>
