Customer Reviews

What a surprise!!

Wow! Like one of the other reviews I found this book very slow and almost boring at first. If anything, that's the *only* thing I would change. The lead female is an only child and somewhat vain and self-centered. But then things start to happen, [you will never expect] and the author addresses questions of faith. I felt like I was reading about myself in places. It was so moving! This is my first read by Ms. Samson, but definitely not my last!

Not for the faint hearted!

I found the first 60 pages a little dry, too much detail,, I really had a hard time warming up to it (It was my first book by this author)But it picked up after that and wound me in tight. This is the sotry of a seasoned warrior, definitely not a ladies man and a young, intelligent pampered noblewoman who lives for the pleasures of the day. She dislike him even before they meet, intensely. I really hate to give away the real heart of the book, I literally cried the last hundred pages and I'm a tough old bird! When they finally connect, there is a connection of souls but it is immediately coupled with a devastating tragedy of monumental proportions, which I won't give away. This is a very deep book emotionally, the charaters are real and complex, their growth beautiful. There is nothing shallow about it. Be prepared to be emotionally devastated but also to be challenged. I recommend it very much, it's a beautiful love story but so much more.

The Warrior's Bride

A compelling and heartfelt story about faith, love, and devotion. I enjoyed this book immensely and I definitely recommend it to anyone who is struggling--whether it be with their health or with their mind.
