Spring, 1297. Recently widowed Joanna of Acre, dutiful and loving daughter of Edward I, is pleased at her father's unexpected visit. Ostensibly Edward's visit is prompted by patriarchal concern, in reality he is motivated by the whisper of a rumour that Joanna, still officially in her widow's weeds, has begun an inappropriate friendship with penniless commoner, Ralph Monthermer. Edward's fury is unbounded when he discovers what he believes to be proof of a clandestine affair. He immures Joanna in a nunnery and imprisons Ralph within Bristol Castle. Only Henry Trokelowe, Edward's clerk, prevents him from killing Ralph, who is allowed to live while the cold, almost passionless Henry investigates. Ralph and Joanna's only chance of survival lies in the hands of Henry Trokelowe but how can a confirmed bachelor even begin to understand the all-consuming passion that binds Ralph and Joanna? Vannessa Alexander's richly evocative novel, immersed in the colours, drama and essence of Medieval life, combines fact and fiction to tell one of history's greatest but most secret love affairs.

The Love Knot is devoted primarily to the partner's side of the cancer story. It is Robert Ross's gift to those who live with the fear, the pain, the uncertainty, and possible loss of the person they love most in the world. Many books have been written on how to be a cancer survivor, on how to make the necessary accommodations to cancer without being defeated by it, on how not to act the victim. Not surprisingly, these books have been written primarily for the person who actually has cancer, but the intrusion of a life-threatening illness like cancer touches a circle of people far beyond the person who has cancer.

THREE VERY DIFFERENT OUTCOMES... Following the death of her mother, Leonie Lynch is brought up in London's Eastgate Street by foster parents, her living expenses provided for by her young mother's friend, Lady Angela Bentick. When she turns eighteen, her godmother, the redoubtable Mrs Dodd, turns to Lady Angela to ask that she takes her on as a nurse at her nursing home and it is upon starting work that Leonie meets our two other heroines - Mercy Cordel and Dorinda Montgomery. Mercy grew up at the family home, Cordel Court in Somerset, and shortly after her seventeenth birthday, was brought up to London by her stepmother for the London Season. Dorinda Montgomery, on the other hand, has hardly ridden up and down Rotten Row more than a half a dozen times before she has captured the heart of every masher around town. Within days she is a famous member of the demi-monde, with her own house and carriage in St John's Wood. Meanwhile, Mercy Cordel is hard put to find a dancing partner. That she eventually finds a husband in the hard-bitten, hard-riding John Brancaster is a source of happy amazement to her. Society seems to reward Dorinda Montgomery more than it does the virtuous girl pushed into marriage with a suitably older husband. Certainly this is how it seems to Leonie Lynch, the only one of the three who has quite made up her mind to dedicate herself to something other than marriage...
