When Gunnar returns on a dangerous quest, she has a hard time keeping her resolve not to love him. Believing him to only be toying with her affections, she has finally settled on a different future. Mikaela had her heart broken by Gunnar five years ago. While he tries to hide his love for Mikaela, when the quest for the Holy Grail leads him back home to her, he doesn’t know if he will be able to give her up again. But as the brother of an evil Earl, romance with a lowly bond servant is forbidden, not to mention dangerous for Mikaela and her family. Underneath his flirty, playboy facade, Gunnar has only ever loved one woman, his childhood friend Mikaela. In this story, Gunnar, the handsome knight known as the “slayer” of hearts, is on a mission with Torvald to find the Holy Grail which promises to cure the queen’s bleeding disease. With well-written brave knights and intelligent maidens, it’s easy to fall in love with each couple and their daring tale.
Jotunn, a creepy forest, forbidden swoony romance, an evil brother, and a quest for the Holy Grail make Jody Hedlund’s Ensnared a thrilling latest installment in the Knights of Brethren series! I love this series and find with each book, I love it even more. “One act of courage has the power to clear the path for more.” I received a copy of this book from the author, all opinions, however, are my own. I cannot wait for more books in this series and to get to the bottom of what this bleeding curse is about. Both the characters were amazing, naturally Gunnar/Gawain was my favorite but that's a given. The plot was really great, kept me guessing and I'll never grow tired of just how Norse inspired this story world is (we've got some jottun in this one). Okay Imma stop talking now before I convince myself to start writing a book exclusively about Gawain 🤣 (one of these days though.). He's the hero we both need and deserve 😌 Actually, every Arthurian story should star Gawain. Every retelling of King Arthur should have a Gawain. He's my favorite figure from Arthurian stories period. I don't know how many of you know this, but Gawain is my absolute favorite Knight of the Round Table. I read it in just two days (and if you guys are familiar with my reading speed you know that's a feat 😅). This one was the best yet! But then I didn't expect otherwise from Gawain's *cough* I mean Gunnar's story.
