Book description
Legend has it that long, long ago, a great knight fell in love with a
fair maiden... A Legend Arises: Emma knew her entire life that she'd
eventually marry Ailig and be the lady in his castle. But she had dreams
of freedom which weren't befitting to a lady of her standing. Still she
yearned for Ailig and the unknown of his arms. As Ailig's wife she
learns her true freedom is in his arms and bondage is the emptiness she
feels when they're parted. Instead of wishing for freedom, she fears for
her love's safety while he does his king's bidding. Though she
endeavours to hide her apprehension, Ailig knows of his bride's
anxieties yet duty to king and country compels him. Before answering
each call to service, he promises to safely return. But there are some
perils that even a knight can't overcome... A Legend Accomplished:
Writer, Emily Harteger has been at loose ends her entire life, never
quite fitting in anywhere she's gone. She finds her place in the past
amongst the knights and maidens she creates on paper. When a story idea
comes to her in a dream, she's compelled to travel to England on a trip
she can neither afford nor justify. She's drawn to the shores of
Northern England where vivid pictures fill her head and she pens a lurid
tale of Sir Alexander and his love Emagarde. When she meets Alec Woods,
the very embodiment of the man she's visualised in her dreams, she's
drawn under his spell. Her visions of the knight and his love grow
stronger and she wonders if the attraction she feels for Alec is real or
the product of her wishful dreaming. Then they find a bottle containing
a necklace and note identical to one she's written about in her book...
Is this fantasy or something else entirely? Reader Advisory: This story

When it comes to books and movies, Brynn Paulin has one rule: there must
be a happy ending. After that one requirement, anything else goes. And
it just might in any of her books. Brynn lives in Michigan with her
husband and two children, who love her despite her occasional threats to
smite them. They humour her and let her think she's a goddess...as long
as she provides homemade chocolate chip cookies on a regular basis.
Brynn is president of her local chapter of Romance Writers of America
and also hosts a weekly writing critique group. She's conducted
workshops at several writers' conferences around the country as she
enjoys mentoring and meeting new people. According to Brynn, her writing
success can be attributed to 70's music, her local road construction
crews, a trusty notebook, and of course, her husband (and willing
research subject), AKA Mr. Inspiration.
