Another great read from Jude Deveraux. A real engaging story right from the start.
The bold English conqueror was called the Black Lyon for his lionlike fierceness. he had no match among enemies, or women -- until he met Lyonene, the green-eyed beauty whose fiery spirit matched his own. Through a whirlwind romance and stormy marriage, she endured every peril to be by his side, until jealous and vicious lies drove her across the Irish Sea and into grave danger. Only one man could save her. Only the fierce Black Lyon had the courage to destroy the ruthless plot that had driven them apart and threatened the bond of love they had vowed could never be broken
This book begins the Montgomery legacy.
I really enjoyed this book. The first half was just a bit slow but that wasn't even a problem because once I got into it, I couldn't put it down. The characters are wonderful with flaws all their own and the story itself is wonderfully written. Certainly one of the best I've read in a long time! Highly recommended!!
LOVE Deveraux's older romances - the Black Lyon is a great story.
I just loved this book. It made me cry, it was that good. My first would be Knight in Shining Armor. That one is a classic. Black Lyon is a close second.

This is the first book of hers I ever read. This is my second time reading this particular book. She writes great novels. This is a book to enjoy. It will mke you mad, it will make you sad, then you will become glad. Next you should read about the Montegomery brothers. If I remember correctly, there is Raine, Gavin, Stephen, and Giles.
1-5 I give it a 4.5 Love this author, have never been disappointed.
Not one of my favorite Deveraux books. A little slow at times and has an annoying heroine.
