Warrior #7
A Warrior's Bride
The Bride Wore Chain Mail...
...or would have, if she could, for the Lady Aileas Dugall was more concerned with things martial than marital. Nevertheless, she was the woman Sir George de Gramercie desired. Though he wondered if she would come to the marriage bed more warrior than wife?
Aileas Dugall bemoaned the fate that bound her to Sir George de Gramercie, a knight who seemed more interested in the luxuries of life than the mechanics of war. Still, when he gazed at her with husbandly intent, she wanted nothing more than to surrender!

Award-winning author Margaret Moore actually began her career at the age of eight, when she and a friend concocted stories featuring a lovely, spirited damsel and a handsome, misunderstood thief nicknamed "The Red Sheik."
Unknowingly pursuing her destiny, Margaret graduated with distinction from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Literature. During that time, she also became a Leading Wren with the Royal Canadian Naval Reserve, where she learned to use a variety of weapons and had the weepy experience of being tear-gassed.
In addition to being a wife and mother of two, she's also been an award-winning public speaker, synchronized swimmer, an archer, and studied fencing and ballroom dancing.
Margaret sold her first historical romance and the premiere book of her Warrior series, A WARRIOR'S HEART, to Harlequin Historicals® in 1991. Since that time, she's written over 25 historical romance novels and novellas. She has also written for Avon Books, as well as a young adult historical romance for HarperCollins Childrens Books. She now writes for Harlequin's new single title imprint, HQN.
Her books have been published in France, Italy, Germany, Great Britain, Australia, Belgium, Switzerland, Brazil, Korea, Japan, Sweden, the Netherlands, Russia, Poland and India.

3 1/2 stars they were both immature and their interactions seemed childish, in spite of the steam. She threw tantrums and sulked and he just smirked to hide his true feelings. The “mystery” was not suspenseful but it all wrapped up quite neatly with a HEA. Taking the story lightly, her “skills” and the drama it caused were entertaining enough for 3 1/2 stars. Not a re-read because it was frustrating to see a conversation being able to clear up the misunderstandings.
First by the author but I liked her writing so I will try another in the series.
3/22/25 accidentally re-read, 3 stars, still found her childish

I was actually quite pleased with this book when I read it back in June 2023. ( it is now à bit hazy)
But I thought the female main character was feisty. And she was Not at all about stupid sentimentalism that we read on and on in mill and boons style of book. This girl cares about her castle and about her People. She thinks her community needs more a brave soldier with swords and shields to protect her People than à man Who only are interested in his looks.
She is à bit of à Joan of Arc than à Damzell in distress. Which really was à Nice change.
It was one of my first Historical romantic book.
And to think that back in medieval Times women could be This courageous ( rather than just sewing their way through life) was inspiring.
In fact this was so much of à change for me that after that i started to buy Historical romance books to read other women inspiring lives story.

I have read several books by Margaret Moore and really liked it. A Warrior's Bride was very hard for me to get into. The characters were just not very likable. I was expecting better from Margaret Moore.

Sétimo volume da série Warriors.
Lady Alice é uma mulher tão abrutalhada que eu estava esperando que a qualquer momento ela jogasse sir George sobre o ombro e o carregasse para a cama. E ele provavelmente ficaria escandalizado, sendo um dândi numa época em que tais ainda não existiam.
É divertido.
