      Synopsis

      In this sweeping, emotional love story, USA Today bestselling author Lynn Kurland takes us back to the thirteenth century-and all the passion and magnificence of medieval England.

      Publishers Weekly

      With its gruff, burly hero and warrior-like heroine, Kurland's winsome medieval-era romance fearlessly flies in the face of convention. Colin of Berkhamshire, also known as the Butcher, is so fearsome that all of his prospective brides have created excuses to avoid marrying him-all except one. Ali nore of Sologne simply vanished and, disguised as a knight, secured a position attending Lady Sybil of Maignelay. Posing as Sir Henri, Ali nore accompanies Sybil to meet the man to whom she has been secretly betrothed. Too late, Henri realizes that the bridegroom is the infamous Butcher. Her horror intensifies when Colin, who prides himself on his fighting skills, makes it his mission to teach "Henri" sword skills and manliness of speech and mannerisms. Ali nore's wild imagination and Colin's resemblance to a large mastiff hound (with a tough exterior and soft interior) keep the narrative bursting with fun. The plot takes an even more delightful turn after Colin realizes Henri is his runaway Ali nore and he sets about "wooing" her with suave lines like "You look, um, quite a bit like a girl." A disarming blend of romance, suspense and heartwarming humor, this book is romantic comedy at its best. (Oct. 1) Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.

      Another Kurland book to keep and read againby Anonymous

      March 25, 2009: I enjoy all Lynn Kurland's books and have all of them. She is the only author that I keep all of her books, so that I can re-read them. The characters are interesting and she blends them so well as they time travel and opt to stay in the 1500's or in 2009. I also enjoy the fact that the character's from several different families are interwoven in her books along with the ghosts. In "From This Moment On" Alienore is a strong woman, well educated and well versed in the manly arts. She meets her match in Colin and the fun begins and continues throughout the entire book.

      July 31, 2005: i really liked colin's character although i thought that alienore's love for him was a little sudden. like kurland thought the book should be ending so she just decided that alienore loved colin. would have been better if the romance was moved up a little in the book. otherwise pretty enjoyable.
