Falling for Her Captor by Elisabeth Hobbes

She swore again, partly from the pain but mostly because of the large tear she now had in her already grubby skirt. The sound of ripping cloth accompanied her gasp as she landed in a heap, scuffing her knees and palms. She sat down and lowered herself until she could drop to the ground. No one was around to hear her use her father’s favourite exclamation of annoyance, otherwise she wouldn’t have dared say anything so unladylike. She reached the tip of her fingers out and managed to pull the pear free, only for it to slip from her grasp and fall to the ground. Some devil had let the geese loose and they were making for their favourite forbidden place: the orchard where Rowenna was currently standing.

Out of the corner of her eye she could see the determined mass of white heading at speed towards her. She froze, standing on the sturdiest branch of the pear tree, with her hand outstretched towards one particularly ripe specimen. The first indication that Rowenna Danby was in trouble was the honking of the geese. “Hobbes has brought to life flawed and stubborn characters, yet so lovable in the way they care for each other and their fumbling at handling their sentiments.” - Elodie’s Reading Corner Read more “With an absolutely adorable couple, wonderful secondary characters and an intriguing storyline, this was a book I struggled to put down! Highly recommend!” - Rose is Reading Hobbes’ sense of place and time, as always, sings.” - All About Romance Hobbes, as always, gets how love works and writes beautiful love stories without a single flaw . . .

“ A Midsummer Knight’s Kiss gives Elisabeth Hobbes another solid notch in her quiver of appealing romances . . . Yet Robbie’s heart appears to belong to another-unless a midsummer kiss could change everything? Their newly awakened affection inspires in Rowenna a new-decidedly adult-impulsiveness. When she meets Robbie again in York, he’s close to claiming his knighthood.

Since her mischief-making childhood with Robbie Danby, Rowenna has curbed her impetuous nature and become a lady. The author of The Blacksmith’s Wife delivers “a mesmerizing and atmospheric romantic adventure through a beautiful city in a time of unrest and upheaval” ( Chicks, Rogues and Scandals).
