REVIEW Historical Romance Club gives Draegon's Lair 4 Stars

Draegon (the Shadow Lord) was the lord of Greystone and ruled with a fair and even hand. He'd spent so many years hiding his face beneath the hood of a cloak, and trying to wipe out the past and cleanse his soul to prepare for the future, it was second nature to him. While he was a good lord, it never came under his supervision to rescue fair maidens in distress. But one stormy eve, destiny came calling and changed his life forever.

Alys was running from an evil and cruel man she was due to marry but did not love. She'd run from him many times in the past, but always she was caught and viciously punished. But this night she felt freedom was close at hand, and she would obtain it at all costs. Alys could take no more beatings or humiliation and needed to escape.

Draegon and Alys meet under the most desperate of circumstances, but fate steps in to take over their lives. Bastion (Knighthawk), the Lord of Worthingshire, was determined to get Alys back. He enjoyed bringing misery to others---cruelty and torture were his favourite weapons of choice. He would find Alys at all cost, and destroy any and all who stood in his way. She would not be allowed to escape him and live. These three people were on a collision course like none have ever seen. Draegon was determined to keep Alys and help her get away from Bastion, but was he strong enough lord to accomplish this and still keep his secrets hidden? Could he love another and provide for her or would he release her back to Bastion to save all those under his lordship who depended on him for their lives? When Draegon's deepest secrets are revealed to him, will he falter and succumb to the evil he feels within him? Or will he fight for the true cause that keeps us all moving forward in our lives - love!

This is a timeless story of passion, love and destiny that keeps you guessing what will happen on the next page. Draegon's Lair is well written and develops at a slow even pace so you feel the characters' deep emotions, be it love, fear or passion.
