Karin Tabke's MASTER OF CRAVING

Karin Tabke has a new release, MASTER OF CRAVING, available for purchase. This is the third in Karin's Blood Sword Legacy series. I received a copy from Karin the other day (thank you, Karin!) but won't be able to get to it for a while. I wanted to spread the word while it's still fresh and new so there's no review from me, but this is what Romantic Times had to say:
"Tabke's alpha heroes and strong-willed women captivate. Her third Blood Sword Legacy novel is a powerful battle-of-wills love story that resonates with the atmosphere of the era and simmering passion, betrayals and politics that add depth to a stirring tale."
I've read all but one of Karin's books, including the previous two in this series, and there have never been any disappointments. I recommend Karin's work to all romance readers with absolutely no hesitation.
A blurb about the series:
Eight mercenary knights, each of them base born, each of them bound by unspeakable torture in a Saracen prison, each of them branded with the mark of the sword for life. Each of their destinies marked by a woman.
‘Twas whispered along the Marches the demon knights who rode upon black horses donned in black mail wielding black swords would slay any man, woman or child who dared look upon them. ‘Twas whispered their loyalty was only to the other and no man could split them asunder, nor was there enough gold or silver in the kingdom to buy their oath. ‘Twas well known each of them was touched not by the hand of God but by Lucifer himself.
‘Twas also whispered, but only by the bravest of souls, that each Blood Sword was destined to find only one woman in all of Christendom who would bear him and only him sons, and until that one woman was found, he would battle and ravage the land...
…but the darkest secret whispered was that there was one among them whose violent craving for the one woman he could not have would be the spark that would set an entire region on fire, and nearly bring down a kingdom, with the aftermath to be felt for the next thousand years.

Sounds great, doesn't it? Be sure to add MASTER OF CRAVING to your bookstore shopping list - and here's a link to Amazon for anyone who wants to toss a copy in their cart!
Thanks for checking it out!
