Summary
The year is 1066. Events are unfolding that will change the course of history.
Conquering Passion is an epic medieval romance. The first book in the family saga series The Montbryce Legacy, Conquering Passion introduces us to Rambaud, Antoine, and Hugh de Montbryce, brothers from a noble Norman family with a long and illustrious military history. The eldest brother, Ram de Montbryce, is an ambitious warrior, greedy for glory and power in the service of his friend, William the Conqueror. His heroism at the Battle of Hastings helps secure the Norman victory and earns him an earldom in newly conquered England. Nothing can stand in the way of his ambition, especially not love. He recognizes he has an obligation to marry but believes the woman his father has chosen for him is unsuitable.
Mabelle de Valtesse has spent years wandering through Normandy with her exiled father. When his lands are finally restored to him and freedom is within her grasp, her father betroths her to Ram de Montbryce. Together Ram and Mabelle struggle to establish a powerful dynasty in a hostile and dangerous medieval world. They share passion, but can a warrior like Ram, who demands obedience in a wife, find love with the willful refugee brought to his bed in an arranged marriage?
They are drawn to each other physically, but it takes a cruel separation to make them realize the depth of their mutual love. Power and wealth will mean nothing if Ram cannot rescue her from her kidnappers.
Can love survive and flourish amid the carnage, hatred, betrayals, and dangers of the Norman Conquest?

Conquering Passion
This book is fantastic. I think it was one of the books that got me to read historical love books. The story was told by the narrator and he told it excellently. I have read this book quite a few times and enjoyed it immensely each time, this audible version, I have owned for a few years and have listened to it many time, but I have never written a review for it and I should have. The story tells of a girl and her Father.
The Father was nobility and owned lots of property and land but all of this was taken from him by his evil son. The Father was power mad but had lived rough in castles for a number of years due to his own and his son’s behaviour. The daughter Mabel, travelled with her Father and spent her time working at each castle that they stayed. It was a terrible life for them. Especially Mabel. Unbeknownst to her, Father had
Agreed an arranged marriage to Ram, who was the eldest son in of
His Family. He did not know either. So the day before the wedding day the couple were told, and actually did not know each other. The couple were reluctant to agree to the marriage. The story of wars
And fighting, a trip across the sea starts this story into the wonderful story that it is. It is the first book of a series of books regarding the characters in the family. Lots of loving, adventure, kidnapping, inheritance, so much going on all the time. Miss Markland, you excelled yourself with this series. I loved every word. God bless you, and keep writing. X
