Eleanor and the Iron King
by Julie Daines
Covenant Communications Inc., 2015, 202 pgs. Romance
Eleanor de Lacy, daughter of an English earl, has been bartered as a bride to the enemy in exchange for peace. Eleanor knows little about her husband-to-be, the Welsh king Brach Goch, only that he is a ruthless leader responsible for attacks on her people and the death of her beloved brother. Once she reaches the Welsh king’s castle, she receives ominous warnings from a terrifying ghost: Brach cannot be trusted. However she begins to realize all is not as it seems, and finds herself in the middle of a web of deceit. She must decide who to trust, and who to love.
Honestly I found the character development to be rather wanting, but I feel like it helps establish this book as a light read. The encounters with the ghost kept things interesting and helped move the plot. I also really enjoyed the Welsh setting. This book would be great for someone looking for a clean romance, or a casual read that won’t demand much thought to enjoy.
