*****
Wonderful medieval romance filled with unexpected plot twists. The background history is exactly that - background...a sense of being in the medieval age without getting lost in historical details and period language. The sexual chemistry between the hero and heroine is electrifying. The love scenes burn with passion. But it's the romance that is the best thing about Earthchild. The evolution of emotion that the hero and heroine experience is beautifully written. There are moments in the story that made me sigh out loud! A keeper!
