Book Review: "For Love & Honor" by Jody Hedlund


About the book
Lady Sabine is harboring a skin blemish, one, that if revealed, could cause her to be branded as a witch, put her life in danger, and damage her chances of making a good marriage. After all, what nobleman would want to marry a woman so flawed?
Sir Bennet is returning home to protect his family from an imminent attack by neighboring lords who seek repayment of debts. Without fortune or means to pay those debts, Sir Bennet realizes his only option is to make a marriage match with a wealthy noblewoman. As a man of honor, he loathes the idea of courting a woman for her money, but with time running out for his family’s safety, what other choice does he have?
As Lady Sabine and Sir Bennet are thrust together under dangerous circumstances, will they both be able to learn to trust each other enough to share their deepest secrets? Or will those secrets ultimately lead to their demise?

My Thoughts
This book tells the story of Sir Bennet, the third knight we met in the first book in the series (An Uncertain Choice). I love how the different sections are in a different font depending on if it is Bennet or Sabine that we are following. I liked the interactions between Bennet and Sabine and their banter back and forth. The book took twists I didn't expect which was nice. I also liked the spiritual thread and the grow in the characters' lives. I am looking forward to reading Aldric's story next.
