Knight of Passion 5 Book Giveaway





HOW CAN THIS PASSIONATE KNIGHT...
Renowned beauty Lady Linnet is torn between two desires: revenge on those who destroyed her family or marriage to her childhood sweetheart Sir James Rayburn. One fateful night, she makes a misguided choice: she sacrifices Jamie's love for a chance at vengeance.

TRUST A BEAUTY WITH A PAST?
Jamie Rayburn returns to England in search of a virtuous wife-only to find the lovely Linnet as bewitching as ever. Their reckless affair ignites anew, even hotter than before, although Jamie vows to never again trust her with his heart. Then just as Linnet begins to make amends, she's tempted by one last opportunity to settle old scores. But a final retribution could cost her Jamie's love - this time forever.
 
Five Fun Facts

1. In 1425, prostitution was illegal in the City of London so men crossed the river to visit the prostitutes who were under the regulation of the Bishop of Winchester. The prostitutes, nick-named the Winchester geese, paid fees to the Bishop.

2. “The clink” was the Bishop of Winchester’s jail. This is where our expression “in the clink” came from.

3. London Bridge was the only bridge across the Thames from London. If the Bishop sent armed men to close off the bridge on his side of the river, you would have to take a barge to visit the prostitutes.

4. London Bridge was crowded with buildings that hung over the sides of the bridge and crossed overhead. Wealthy merchants were willing to put up with the occasional severed head on display because it was such prime real estate.

5. Henry IV’s wife, Henry V’s step-mother, and Henry VI’s uncle’s wife were all accused of using witchcraft to influence succession to the throne—and the charges may have been true.
