The Knave and the Maiden

★★★★3.9·14 ratings

From Booklist Rescuing his liege, William, on the battlefields of France earned English knight Garren the name of "Savior," but all his efforts seem futile once they reach Readington Castle and William begins a slow descent toward death. Now in a desperate bid to save his friend, Garren agrees to go on a pilgrimage to the shrine of the Blessed Larina. Among the other pilgrims is beautiful Dominica, who seeks some sign that the saint approves of her choice to become a novice. Unbeknownst to Dominica, the prioress, in collaboration with William's younger brother, pays Garren to seduce Dominica in the hope of keeping her out of the convent. Garren tries everything he can think of to tempt Dominica into surrendering her innocence, only to find Dominica's unshakable faith tempting him into believing in God again. Faith and love play an important part in Gifford's sweetly passionate and wonderfully romantic debut historical, which vividly re-creates the medieval pilgrimage experience, complete with a company of characters worthy of Chaucer.
