Book Review: A great author who keeps getting better
Summary: 5 Stars

In 1238 England, women have no choice as to whom they may wed as their male guardian arranges the marriage for them. The abusive Bernard of Warewick concocts a betrothal for his daughter Gillian with the notorious Dragon of Blackmoor. Knowing that she has no choice, Gillian decides life cannot be any worse than it is now, so she might as well begin anew. Christopher of Blackmoor does not want a spouse, but he has little choice too because political necessity forces him to wed Gillian. Christopher fears that his new wife will learn that, though he still trains with his troops, he is secretly blind from a recent battle. ..... Gillian arrives, expecting the same treatment from her new husband that she used to receive from her father. Instead, he seems to avoid her. She takes charge of the household and begins investigating the mystery of Christopher and his strange behavior towards her . She quickly realizes that she is dealing with a compassionate but bruised soul that she now loves with all her heart, something she did not believe was possible. As she continues to lay siege to his impregnable heart, she prays that she can eventually break down the walls surrounding him. ....... After reading THIS IS ALL I ASK, fans of historical romance will ask a lot more from the obviously talented Lynn Kurland. The writer's novel is a brilliant Medieval piece that brings alive a bygone era through two of its most emotionally scarred individuals. Christopher's blindness and Gillian's emotional traumas are not told in a condescending manner. Instead they are simply handicaps that need to be overcome if they are to share a loving relationship. Love, emotional healing, great characters, and a fantastic story line add up to one obvious fact; readers will devour this thirteenth century magnum opus. .......Harriet Klausner
