The Grail and Glory (Once and Future Hearts Book 11)

As betrayal and war close in, can two hearts learn to trust again? Deryn of Calleva flees her ruined home, betrayed by her own kin and pursued by Saxons. With nothing left but her wits and her will to survive, she seeks shelter in Arthur’s court—a place where loyalties shift like the wind and every ally may yet prove false. Cadfael of Dunoding, eldest son of his house and sworn to Arthur’s service, is being shaped into the next war duke. Fiercely loyal to his king, he struggles to hold fast to honor while Britain fractures around him. Yet the wary, sharp-eyed woman from his past awakens a bond he cannot deny. Together, Deryn and Cadfael must navigate treachery within Camelot and the relentless threat beyond its walls. When Arthur’s fighting men are called to their greatest trial, their choices will decide not only their hearts, but the fate of a kingdom.

Readers have described Tracy Cooper-Posey as “a superb story teller” and her historical fantasy romances as “written art.” A Historical Fantasy Romance/Ancient Historical Romance series __ Praise for the Once and Future Hearts series For some it's the legend of King Arthur that excites them about this series but for me it's a thoroughly engrossing, beautifully written novel that has authentic characters and historical facts of the time that enrich the story. Tracy has the amazing ability of building her characters with such respect and tenderness that you have no other option than to love her [Guenivere]. I highly recommend the whole series and I enjoy revisiting characters common to the previous books in the series with the main characters of Camelot merely an interesting background. I’ll actually be sorry to see this series comes to an end, which is the highest praise someone like me (an Arthurian hater) can offer. I can't wait for the next one. War, political intrigues and conniving characters are usually something I avoid but author Tracy Cooper-Posey does a brilliant job of balancing the these elements by putting the focus on two lives being tossed around by circumstances beyond their control.
