Her sensual, hypnotic novels have won acclaim and devoted readership. Now award-winning author Jo Beverley weaves her magic spell once more as a dark knight and a beautiful woman clash on the stormy battlefield of love in Lord of Midnight.He entered her life in the midnight darkness of a storm, in the shadow of her beloved father's death. A rebellion had left Clarence of Summerbourne dead -- his castle and his daughter, Claire, forfeit to the king's champion. Renald de Lisle arrived at the castle gates as a warrior, took possession of Claire like a conqueror, and set her heart racing as her lover. Amid moonlight and velvet, she became his bride; atop tangled bedclothes she discovered passion. Then she learned Renald's terrible secret and vowed revenge against this man she had wed, this man she loved with all her heart....

Good but could be better
"Lord of Midnight," by Jo Beverley, is a typical romance where the hero and heroine are forced to marry for political and/or social reasons and must somehow find love. The twist? The hero killed the heroine's father and is taking over his estate. I found this to be a very refreshing and intriguing change from the average romance plot. My problems with this book? Beverley allows very little interaction between the hero and heroine before they "fall in love," and the reader only hears minimal points of view from Renald (the hero). Because of this, some of his actions seem to come out of nowhere, and you don't really know what's going on in his head. Beverley also seems to write herself into a corner, trying to figure out how to redeem Renald from his crime to both Claire (the heroine) and the reader. Beverley writes the tale so that Renald is simply being described by other people as good rather than portraying him as good through his actions (most especially in the last few chapters). Furthermore, the murder mystery that Claire tries to solve throughout the second half of the book seems like an almost blatant plot device trying to wrap up the story, and is not meshed very well into the main plot. Despite all of these problems that I had with this book, I actually did enjoy reading it, and I really liked the characters (especially Renald and Josce). It is an enjoyable read, but not necessarily a book you can pick up anytime to read your favorite parts (mostly because events spread out over such long periods that you would basically have to read the whole book again anyway). If you are already a Beverley fan, I recommend the book, not as highly as I would others, but it is worth at least one read.Read full review
