"A medieval tale of good versus evil with some romance thrown in!"

Edwin, a Saxon and his father's heir, was poaching in Wales when he became separated from his brother and the rest of his hunting group. While wandering around, Edwin comes across a clearing with a woman in it. And not just any woman, but a rare beauty. When he approaches her, she challenges him to a sword fight. Surprisingly, the woman is very good, but not good enough to defeat Edwin. After all, he fought in the Saxon/Mercian war beside his king. When he defeats her and is just about ready to claim his reward, he is interrupted by his brother Alfwyn. In the confusion, the woman runs away. In the treaty between the Mercian and the Saxon king, marriages have been arranged to bring the two peoples together. Just Edwin's luck, he is to marry a Mercian lady. Of course, he knows no woman will tempt him as much as the beauty he came across in the clearing.

Lady Aislinn has been sent by her father to her mother's people in Wales. She sat out the war between the Mercians and the Saxons in her uncle's keep. Now she has been called home to marry a Saxon lord. Deciding to read the runes just once more before she heads to her father's keep, Aislinn is interrupted by a warrior. After managing to get away from this Edwin, Aislinn runs into Bran, her uncle, who was sent to fetch her. Not surprisingly, Aislinn finds herself intrigued by Edwin and can't get him out of her thoughts. Well Aislinn has no intentions of entering any marriage meekly, so decides to get the consummation over with on her terms. Imagine Aislinn's surprise when she finds herself wedded to none other than Edwin.

When Edwin discovers his bride is none other than the beauty he saw in the clearing in Wales, he is beside himself with joy and decides they will have a true marriage and he vows to protect her. Aislinn is worried that her husband's people will not accept her, for not only is she Mercian, but she is also Sidhe.

Will Edwin and Aislinn have the chance to fall in love? Will Edwin be able to keep Aislinn safe? Will the Saxons discover Aislinn's secret—that she is Sidhe?

ENCHANTRESS: THE FEY is a wonderful paranormal medieval romance. Amy Ruttan did a fantastic job of pulling me into the story from the very first page and kept my interest throughout. And yes, we do have the good versus evil in this story, but in a way that took me by surprise. Aislinn is a woman that won't easily submit to any man, much less a husband. And of course, Edwin is strong enough to handle her. All in all, this is a very engaging story and one I suggest reading, especially if you have an interest in anything Celtic.
