Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen E. Woodiwiss

The Wolf and the Dove

★★★☆　
翻訳版が絶版なので原書に挑戦。この作家さんの作品は面白いのか面白くないのか解らない。好きか嫌いかもよくわからないけど読んでしまうというか・・・
この作品以外は翻訳版で読んだので、一概には言えませんが（「冬のバラ」は自動翻訳機で訳したような最悪な文章でした）、前半は面白いのだけど、大抵の作品は後半陳腐なサスペンス系が入ってくるので、間延びしちゃうことが多いような気がします。
それにしても入浴シーンが好きな作家さんです（ドレスが破けるのはもとより）　中世なのに頻繁にお風呂に入るヒロインです（笑）。
ヒーローWulfgarの魅力に☆おまけ。

Synopsis

When the Normans invade and sweep across Saxon England in 1066, lovely Aislinn of Darkenwald watches her father murdered outside her home. Wulfgar, the Iron Wolf of Normandy, arrives to rule Darkenwald, and one look at Aislinn leads him to claim her as his own. She hates the Norman conquering forces, but Wulfgar awakens a consuming passion in her that she can't deny. As she struggles with her growing love for Wulfgar, she does what she can to aid her conquered people and her bereaved mother. But a jealous lord conspires with Wulfgar's spoiled half-sister and Aislinn's very life is threatened before Wulfgar can admit that the woman he conquered has in truth, conquered his heart.
