I have adored the previous books from the Knights of Brethren series and was excited to get my hands on the newest installment, Ensnared. Oh my goodness, it is probably my new favorite of the series. I adored Gunnar and Mikaela’s story. It was sweet and full of faith with a mixture danger and suspense. It was not a long book to read for me and enjoyed reading it on a cool and rainy day.
Ensnared will be getting five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading clean historical and medieval era romance. I can not wait for the release of next book from the Knights of Brethren series, Enriched.
I received a digital copy of Ensnared from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion. ( )

Book three of the Knights of Brethren series finds Mikaela and Gunnar reunited. Mikaela is acting as a nursemaid and Gunnar is one of the Knights. Gunnar is on a mission to help the queen and also wants to look out for Mikaela. They both must work hard for what they believe in and for each other.

I received a copy to read, the review is mine. ( )

Although every book she writes is amazing, Ensnared might be my favorite of the Knights of Brethren series so far! The characters are engaging, the romance is endearing, and the plot is enchanting. I found it easy to become invested in the story almost immediately and had no trouble ignoring sleep in pursuit of knowing what came next in the story. I liked how creative this story truly is with medieval knights, lovely maidens, and dangerous forests and villains. I am always impressed that Jody Hedlund can continue to come up with such unique storylines with memorable characters. I really liked the romance between Mikaela and Gunnar and enjoyed reading how their relationship grew in the story; in fact, childhood best friends to lovers just happens to be one of my favorite love tropes! I do recommend reading this series in order as I think the story builds on previous books. I am so excited to read the next book in the series! Highly recommended!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author. Opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own. ( )

This is the third book of the Knights of Brethren series and this series just keeps getting better! Another courageous knight is searching for the Holy Grail but there are many obstacles along the way. Gunnar is very handsome and a noble knight indeed, but he admits that he is a "slayer of hearts". His heart, however, belongs to his childhood friend, but Mikaela has very different feelings about him. Gunnar broke her heart several years ago so how can she trust him now? How can there possibly be a 'happily ever after'?

If you enjoy a story with kisses that make you swoon, incredible physical chemistry between a knight and maiden, and an adventure full of twists and turns, this is the book for you. Ensnared is a clean romance that targets the young adult audience but it's also a great read for older readers. I was totally 'ensnared' with this medieval romance, and you will be also!

I received a digital copy of this book from the author but there was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts. ( )

“One act of courage has the power to clear the path for more.”

Jotunn, a creepy forest, forbidden swoony romance, an evil brother, and a quest for the Holy Grail make Jody Hedlund’s Ensnared a thrilling latest installment in the Knights of Brethren series! I love this series and find with each book, I love it even more. With well-written brave knights and intelligent maidens, it’s easy to fall in love with each couple and their daring tale.

In this story, Gunnar, the handsome knight known as the “slayer” of hearts, is on a mission with Torvald to find the Holy Grail which promises to cure the queen’s bleeding disease. Underneath his flirty, playboy facade, Gunnar has only ever loved one woman, his childhood friend Mikaela. But as the brother of an evil Earl, romance with a lowly bond servant is forbidden, not to mention dangerous for Mikaela and her family. While he tries to hide his love for Mikaela, when the quest for the Holy Grail leads him back home to her, he doesn’t know if he will be able to give her up again.

Mikaela had her heart broken by Gunnar five years ago. Believing him to only be toying with her affections, she has finally settled on a different future. When Gunnar returns on a dangerous quest, she has a hard time keeping her resolve not to love him. But when Gunnar journeys into the dark Hardanger Forest, she must decide if a future with him is worth fighting for.

Absolutely adored Gunnar! This charming, swoony knight who is too handsome for his own good, completely won me over with his devotion and willingness to sacrifice everything for Mikaela’s happiness. The story had a bit of an enemies to lovers vibe, but like Mikaela found, it’s hard to stay angry with him for very long. Their heartfelt, powerful attraction definitely kept me turning those pages. I loved the hide and seek scene where he finds her in the tool shed and those cute storytelling moments with his nieces.

Mikaela is a heroine worth cheering for. She’s brave, passionate, and desiring to do something to make things better for her people. She’s strong and resolved, but also willing to forgive. She’s a great match for Gunnar. I especially enjoyed her willingness to sacrifice something precious to save others.

This is definitely one story you don’t want to miss! Now, I can’t wait to find out what happens to Torvald. This clean YA romance could be read as a standalone, but it’s definitely more enjoyable if you’ve read the previous books in the series. Thanks to the author for the advanced complimentary copy. All opinions are my own and I was not required to provide a positive review. ( )
