| Medieval romantic novels typically deal with dukes or counts or other men connected with them. In those times, conquering new territories meant a lot to the men in power and convenient marriages were one of the ways of enhancing their fiefdoms. One example of a medieval romantic novel will give the readers some insight into the genre of this type of story telling.
In one of the engrossing medieval romances set in 1094 AD, My Dear Valentine finds perils and men and women full of deceit and chicanery. In the midst of all these negative two lonely hearts come together in love. One of the King’s most loyal knights was singed in love and was determined never to love again for he had no more appetite for hurts.
On the other hand, the lonely lady of the castle had known nothing but the brutal world of “love” where lust was the order of the day. But when it was time to reward the loyal subject for his prowess in battles, the King did it by giving him a wife, the same lady, who saw only blackness in name of love. Two walled hearts come together in constrained circumstances revealing that only the radiance of love can banish away the shadows.
Medieval romantic novels pen a true description of the life and times of the bygone era. It is all very interesting and talented novelists make sure that the novels are all unputdownable.
