Welcome to week 8 of the Medieval Monday Blog Hop. I’m hosting Jenna
Jaxon on my blog and she is hosting me on her blog. A marriage of convenience
and a bedding.  Hmmmm, not so convenient.
What are Thomas and Alyse  to do? Alone.
Together. In bed? Everyone else on the other side of the curtain? Here is a
continuing snippet from Betrayal
Excerpt
The embarrassment in her voice brought
to mind the image of her cheeks, now likely as scarlet as her gown had been.
’Sblood, the girl was no innocent maid.
“Yes, ’tis the usual course of things.
’Tis not looked on as shameful, but as a validation of the wedding vows.” He
paused, ran his fingers along the length of her jaw. “So you do not wish to lie
with me tonight?”
She sniffed. “What choice do I have?”
“The choice will always be yours,
Alyse. I vowed not to force you, and I never break my vows.”

          The
worst betrayals come from within
.
After
a night of passion with her betrothed, Sir Geoffrey Longford, Lady Alyse de
Courcy is eagerly looking forward to her wedding. But when Geoffrey is forced
to marry another, a heartbroken and possibly pregnant Alyse finds herself in
her own private hell. She must either gamble with her reputation or marry
someone she does not love.
A
reputed connoisseur of women, Thomas, Lord Braeton, has dallied with many
ladies of King Edward’s court, although he has favored none. However, as
Geoffrey’s best friend, Thomas has sworn to serve and protect Alyse, an oath
now sorely tested when he agrees to marry her—in name only—to guard her
reputation. Yet, as they grow closer, and Thomas discovers Alyse’s sweet but
spirited nature, he comes to desire a marriage in truth.
Can
he overcome her memory of Geoffrey, or is Thomas doomed to burn with passion
for a woman he can never possess?
