He Would Risk His Life
A hostage in Normandy for five long years, Adeline of Caerdoc, the daughter of a rebellious Welsh Chieftain, has been granted her freedom: at a terrible price. She is condemned to spy on Simon of Taillebroc, a traitorous Norman knight. But in her dangerous attempt to learn his plans, Adeline finds herself faced with a new sort of peril, as the darkly handsome warrior kindles a longing that threatens her very soul.
To Stay By Her Side
Simon has lost everything—his honor, his land, his freedom-while earning the undying enmity of the Crown. He knows that the enticing green—eyed lass has been sent to spy on him, and yet, he cannot stay away. When she contrives to see them wed to further her schemes, Simon takes her as his bride, knowing that he may be condemning himself. For there is nothing he won't do to possess the daring beauty who holds his fate-and heart-in her hands.

This book had many flowery descriptions of the surroundings. Sometimes these enhanced the story sometimes they felt like filler.
Our hero was brave, honourable and kind. Our heroine was in a difficult position as she was to spy on the Norman she weds or her father and his people's lives would be at risk. Her actions frustrated me many times and interferred with her husband's strategy.
The story was good but not as fast-paced as I would have liked. One part defied belief and others just didn't fit from my perspective. I don't want to give anything away though.
I would have liked an epilogue.
If you like historical fiction with a lot of descriptive scenes and plots you should like this book.
