I thought I would share a romance novel with you called Unbroken Vow by Bree M. Lewandowski (Author). Don’t let the word romance stop you from reading this novel as there is so, much more to the story. I received the PDF Copy of the book from Voracious Readers and the Author in exchange for this review. Inside this post is my affiliate links. If you click on the links and make a purchase I will make a small percentage off the products you purchase.
Unbroken Vow if you were to ask me what genre it fits into I would say is a futuristic/arthurian romance although it could also be considered a romantic fantasy and at times a tear-jerker and I almost caught myself tearing up once or twice. The story will keep you reading and not wanting to put the book down as there is twists and turns throughout the strory.
Glaive, a Paladin, a high-ranking knight in Ardara, and Ada, a woman who didn’t plan to be swept up in forbidden rules but here we are. We travel through the lives of both, separated by Seas and duty, but come back together through trials, tribulations, heartbreak, and even promises of love and a life that offers more than palace walls.
Glaive Leal is a Paladin in the kingdom of Ardara- the highest rank a knight can achieve, one that reflects loyalty to his brothers-in-arms, his vow, and his king. When Glaive’s closest friend confesses a secret while he lay dying, Glaive is charged with saving a young woman from the countryside. Ada Vidhava is the secret bride of a Paladin, waiting until she and her husband can be together rather than hiding a marriage that violates the vow he took when becoming a knight; Glaive is not the man she expected to take her away from her parent’s home. Together, they have to maneuver through palace intrigues and politics, trying to honor the vows they each made to the man they knew and loved, while also being honest to their hearts.
About the book:
“He pledged his sword to her. She struggled not to surrender her heart in return.”
The widow of his brother-in-arms, neither of them were prepared to fall in love. Marrying a Paladin is forbidden, but Ada followed her heart, not knowing forbidden meant more than a jail sentence.
Upon Markus’ death, Glaive gives his word to protect Ada. Hiding her away as a servant to the king was supposed to keep her safe. Until a man of power can’t take “no” for an answer. As punishment, she’s sent across an ocean to work for an illustrious crazed queen.
A knight of Ardara, a Paladin of the highest rank, Glaive would die before he risks breaking the pledge he made and would give his life to save her.
Marrying a Paladin is forbidden…
