Why read it?
1 author picked The Lady and the Lionheart as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book grabbed my heart and is still holding on. I have never read a hero more committed to what is right and willing to pursue it at all costs, in spite of his imperfections. His compassion and level of sacrifice are unmatched. Both he and the heroine are wounded, yet in different ways. Her journey to trust is one that touched me deeply. Bischof knows how to write the heart and paint the power of redemption.
From Davalynn's list on Western romance rugged heroes and fiery heroines.
