Customer Reviews

I loved this book!

Full of intrigue and adventure it draws you into the time period with strong characters and vivid descriptions. Betrayed at the altar, Godric is sold into slavery by Meiriona's father, who refuses to allow his daughter to marry a Yorkist. Five year's later, Godric returns, determined to seek revenge and claim what is rightfully his. He kidnaps Meiriona and the adventures begin. I especially enjoyed the `Lady Godiva' type scene, when Meiriona defies Godric and walks through the courtyard, adorned only by her beautiful, long hair.

Wow - What a great read!!

Fabulous, fun read. I loved the bathing scene, it is very sensual.

Fantastic!

This is a wonderful book. I wanted to read it in one sitting but couldn't because I have to work. :) The characters are great and memorable. Jessica Trapp has a way of "putting you there" while you're reading; you're able to visualize what is in the book easily. It's not just another romance novel, this one HAS a story line and is just facinating! But it's saucy too. :) I will read it again.

Classic Romance - Fabulous Debut!

If you cut your romance reading teeth on the likes of THE WOLF AND THE DOVE by Kathleen Woodwiss, you'll love the classic feel of Jessica Trapp's debut romance, Master of Pleasure. The year is 1470, and Lady Meiriona is the pawn in a deadly political power match between the house of Lancaster and the house of York. The book opens with a bang as Meiriona prepares to betray her Yorkist bridegroom and the King who ordered her betrothal. Unable to defy her father, Meiriona begs him to spare the life of the (...) warlord, for she's seen too much of death. Godric of Montgomery, however, is anything but grateful after he's sold into slavery. Seven long years pass before Godric wins his freedom, but he's not forgotten Meiriona's treachery. Now the father of a (...) daughter sired in captivity, Godric is determined to provide a home and a future for his child. To do that, he seeks retribution for the actions perpetrated by Lady Meiriona and her father. So he steals what is rightfully his by order of the King: Meiriona. This story is packed with action, adventure, and sexual tension. But that's not all. Despite the seemingly overwhelming conflict between Meiriona and Godric, there are moments of absolute hilarity. If that's not enough to send you to the bookstore, here's the best part of all: two wonderful lead characters you will root for from page one. Oh, and did I forget to mention how skillfully the author draws the reader into the setting? Don't miss this fabulous debut by Jessica Trapp!
