The Unveiling and The Yielding, the first two books in the Age of Faith series, introduced readers to the formidable Wulfrith family during Duke Henry’s battle for England’s throne and his succession. Now that Henry wears the crown, he is more determined than ever to bring the Wulfriths to heel.
IN THE EYES OF THE CHURCH AND MEN, HERS IS NO SMALL SIN
Lady Gaenor Wulfrith is a woman scorned. And King Henry’s pawn. After three broken betrothals, she is ordered to wed her family’s enemy, a man she has never met and has good reason to fear. Faced with the prospect of an abusive marriage that will surely turn worse when her sin is revealed, she flees her family’s home with the aid of a knight—a man who could prove her ruin.
Christian Lavonne, the only remaining heir to the barony of Abingdale, has thrown off his monk’s robes—and God—to minister his lands. Determined to end the devastation wrought by his family’s feud with the Wulfriths, he agrees to marry his enemy’s sister, a woman no man seems to want. When he learns she has fled with a knight who has broken fealty with the Wulfriths, he pursues her, knowing that when they meet his own sin will be revealed and he will be as much in need of redemption as the woman who may carry another man’s child.

Ms. Leigh's 3rd book in the Age of Faith series was another captivating, page- turner! The characters and their story leap off the page and have you eager to read more. Gaenor Wulfrith and Christian Lavonne must learn many lessons along the way, one of them being to learn to trust each other and even more importantly to trust God. They must also learn lessons on giving and receiving forgiveness. I found the spiritual messages and truths nicely tucked throughout this tale, were great reminders for us in our everyday lives. As well as a reminder of our Lord, Who first loved us, even when we were still in our sin.
I have truly enjoyed this series and I am VERY eager for Book 4 to come out! Also, I am secretly hoping Leigh might add a few more books to the series. I can think of three other characters right now, of which I would like to see the rest of their stories unfold. I think that says something good about her writing. So, if you are interested in a good, clean, medieval romance, dashed with some action and suspense, then look no further, this is the series for you!
