An Uncertain Choice

I've been relistening to some audiobooks I enjoyed this week at work. This was the first book by Jody Hedlund I listened to, and I have loved her YA Medieval Fiction series so much, that I have read most of the books. The first four books in this series, Uncertain Choice or Noble Knights, are on audio, but the last one in this series and the entire next two series are only in e-book and print.

In this book, Lady Rosemarie has known for the past four years that her parents made the vow of Hana, that their daughter would be given to the Lord. She is destined to be a nun in a convent after she turns 18, but one month before her birthday, her godfather, a duke and noble knight, has come to inform her about a loophole. If she finds true love and marries before she turns 18, she will not have to become a nun. The duke also brings his three most trusted and noblest knights with him: Bennet, Colin, and Derek.

As she courts the three young knights and gets to know them, she is drawn to the one who seems to have the least interest in her. She doesn't know he is holding back because he feels unworthy.

Rosemarie also learns that she will not be able to truly lead her people and help the poor as she desires once her entire life is spent in servitude to God. Throughout the book, she learns who is pulling strings she never were aware had been threaded, and as her heart longs for her noble knight, she makes her choice.

But don't fear, the two men who aren't chosen get their own love stories in the second and third books in this series.
