Meet the 2024 Prizes: Isabel: Countess of Pembroke, by Kaitlynn Clarkson

This year five authors have joined me to provide a fantastic medieval-themed Hug a Medievalist Day prize package for you! We will be giving away 8 autographed print books, an ebook, and some medieval-themed bonus prizes. We want you to have a chance to "meet the prizes" before our giveaway kicks off, so I'll be sharing information about one prize with you each day.

Prize 7

An e-book copy of Isabel: Countess of Pembroke, a medieval romance by Kaitlynn Clarkson.



Taken from her widowed mother, young Isabel de Clare lives in the Tower of London as a ward of King Henry II. As the sole heiress of vast estates, she is a desirable marriage prize, and her protectors are determined to find her a worthy husband.

William Marshall is a veteran of many battles and a skilled statesman. His exploits are legendary, but he has always lived the life of a knight, never in one place for long. One day, he visits the Tower of London and meets a beautiful young girl. There seems to be an instant connection between them, but William keeps his distance, for she is just a child and he knows nothing of her heritage.

As time passes and the political landscape shifts, William finds himself in London once more. He is shocked to discover that the lovely child has become a beautiful, eligible young lady. And there are whispers that she could be his as a reward for his services to the crown.

Will Isabel accept a man old enough to be her father? Will William win her heart as well as her hand? Or will the death of the king sever the fragile promise between them forever?
