Kundenrezensionen
The author shows us Richard as a lonely young fellow who idolized his cousin John of Montagu, who looked to the Earl of Warwick as a surrogate father and fell in love with the Earl's daughter, Anne Neville. It was a horrible age where brother went against brother as politics, greed, and marriages entered into the mix. Richard would have to make the heart wrenching decision to choose sides and it appeared that his love for Anne would fall victim to politics, and family loyalty.
Richard is painted as a truly good, honorable and kind youth who became a pawn, used and abused by his brother, the King, Edward IV. The choices he made for honor and love of kin, at a cost to his own heartache will leave you shaking your head and wiping tears of sympathy for the injustices of that period - not only for him but also for Anne.
Whether intentional or not, I found that the secondary romance between John Neville, Lord Montagu and his wife Isobel to be pure poetry. The love depicted between John and his wife, who was also such a special friend to Richard, was depicted so beautifully that it simply took my breath away.
I am definitely looking forward to the next book in this planned trilogy and if the tone and finesse imbued in this, her debut novel is any indication of what to expect we are all in for a marvelous treat. ---- Submitted by Marilyn Rondeau, Official Reviewer for www.historicalromancewriters.com
Richard has been maligned over the centuries. Never would you think that a man capable of such horror's could find such a strong and long lasting love. I knew that he had married his Anne but I was not privy to what their romance could have been like. This was a small window into a very murky past that sheds just a little light on "what could have been." Without a doubt the times were turbulent and war was constantly being waged. This was a fine read that will take the reader back to England during the reign of Edward IV.
This is an incredibly rich read with descriptions that were amazing. You can truly tell that Ms. Worth did her research. I truly look forward to continuing on with this series. This was an all encompassing read so be ready to be transported back to a time that no longer exists to see the childhood of a King that has perhaps been a bit misunderstood.

The first book in a planned trilogy (O, how hurtful to have to wait!) - Ms. Worth's has discovered a Richard, full of pride of family, devotion to his wife, a heart-felt hero-worship for his unlce John Neville - his life so short, yet so full of difficult choices. All during a time when it was brother against brother, bloody fields and glorious triumphs and the love of his fair, Anne Neville - one time wife to the greatest enemy of the House of York, daughter of his mentor, Warwick. My emotions were as tangled as the real players in this drama as conflict begets conflict.
Richard, in perphaps one of the most moving parts of this lovely book, shares a special devotion to and with John Neville. I found this 'Neville's' story (within Richard and Anne's story) to be gently ebbing and comforting....and soulfully heartbreaking.
Love & War is passion and drama and bittersweet and amazingly beautiful to read.
