Yes, I have read the ending more than a few times.”“Plead Forgiveness is much more than a romance between the hero and heroine, which is breath taking to say the least, but it also includes such a deep family dynamic that is rarely added to romance novels. It was brilliant of the author to include this heart wrenching, but very beautiful aspect to her book.” GOODREADSREADER REVIEWS“REFRESHING AND ORIGINAL! This medieval page-turner is extremely well written, but it was the intriguing, fast-paced story line that kept me enthralled.” "ABSOLUTELY AMAZING:This book is absolutely amazing, the characters are engaging, for a first book I was amazed at the depth of the characters and storyline.
