Cynthia and Constantine

Beyond Camelot - Brother Knights #1

by Kathye Quick

Lady Cynthia of Abertaine is trapped. Not only has her fiancé, Sir William Leyborne, not been back to the castle for over ten years, but she's also not a titled Lady. Lord Simon of Cowell, a renegade warlord aligned with Mordred against Arthur and his Knights, has declared himself sovereign over Leybourne Castle and everything that once belonged to Sir William--including Cynthia. Sir Constantine, Knight of the Round Table, has come to the shire to give Cynthia the news that her fiancé has fallen in battle. With him is William's oral will giving all he owns to Cynthia as though they had been wed. But when he finds Cynthia and discovers the shire under the control of an evil warlord, he knows he cannot leave without first driving Simon and his soldiers from the land. Drawn together by an attraction older than time, Cynthia and Constantine soon discover that though a vow made by a knight's honor has brought them together, it may just also cost them their lives.

About the author

Kathye was drawn into writing by her high shool journalism teacher who talked her into writing for the school paper. She's been writing in one capacity or another ever since. From short stories to a weekly newpaper column to fiction and non-fiction, she has touched on every writing genre avaiable to man (or woman). Kathye has also worked for a non-fiction publishing house and credits much of what she knows about the industry to the senior editor with whom she worked closely. Kathye is married and lives in New Jersey with her husband and one son left at home. She grown twin sons; one married and living in Arizona and one living in New Jersey. ONE RAINY NIGHT was written the year before Kathye lost her home and everthing in it to the flooding associated with Hurricane Floyd in 1999. Coincidently, the book opens with the heroine caught in a hurricane of her own. Kathye always says that if she knew she was going to be so prohpetic, she would hve written about a lottery winner.

She also writes as Kathryn Quick.

[Farrah · Rating 3 out of 5]

Right from the beginning you feel the passion between Cynthia and Constantine. A passion that just gives you thrills and makes you want to feel that instant connection with someone if you have never experienced it before. Not only will you get excitement from their passion but from cheering Cynthia on as she keeps strong for her love and for her people. I found the book to be just as faced paced as all the action described amongst the pages. Quick now has me curious about Jane and Braedon…
