The Deed Audiobook Summary

Before her Argeneau vampire family paranormal romance novels made her a New York Times bestselling superstar, Lynsay Sands did The Deed. Lynsay’s witty, sexy, utterly fantastic debut romance transports the listener back to Medieval England to witness the outrageous trials and temptations of a good wife whose husband unfortunately dies before he can do…The Deed. The lady, left shockingly unprepared, finds herself promised to a handsome, landless knight, and misunderstandings, missteps, and (of course) passion ensue. The first of her more than thirty historical romance novels and anthologies known for their wonderfully humorous edge, The Deed is as delightful treat for confirmed Sands fans, as well as for listeners who appreciate the early novels of Julie Garwood.

A very fun love-story that starts with marriage of convenience.!Emmaline Eberhart marries the Fear-less knight Amaury de Aneford by King Richard`s orders. And a splendid journey starts with the promise of eternal love as their bond grows to come closer together.I adored Emma`s naivety, and when she

This is book 1, with book 2 "The Key" ,and 3 being "The Chase".This book is great and funny.Lady Emmaline Eberhart petitions the King to get her husband to consummate her marraige, but her husband dies on route to do the deed.The King orders her to remarry Sir Amaury one of his trusted knights. Amaury is a landless knight who bears the taint of his illegitimacy, Amaury knows that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for him to be "Lord" of his own manor, something he has dreamt of since he was a child. Amaury thinks Emmalines husband killed himself rather than consummate the marraige so he thinks her ugly and is in no hurry to wed.But if her new husband does not do the "deed" quickly, she loses her home and her land to a cousin of her late husbands.There is a hilarious scene while the marraige is being consummated and the family is outside the door shouting "if they are finished because the late husbands cousin was coming".Ok The story is a bit silly but, this is a good light funny read ,and I love when couples marry very early on in a book as there is a lot more interaction between them.With fantastic secondry characters you have to love and the most naive Heroine ever.

This book just reminded me of how much I love Lynsay Sands' HR books. Her new releases have been touch-and-go for me nowadays.But this. The humour. The banter. The wholesome side characters. With a side of assassination attempts. These are what perfect fluffy romcom HR that she always deliver.There were so many memorable and hilarious moments in this book. The clueless hero who thinks women weren't supposed to enjoy their bedding, struggles to compliment his wife and adores her so much so that he was willing to accommodate her in any way that he can. I can't say no to a man like that.And also the determined heroine who wants to have children with her husband, placate him without stopping being assertive, protective of him and yet never stopped giving him back as much as she received. I just love her. All in all, if you're stuck in a dreary day and just want to have fun and hilarious HR, I would definitely recommend this book. ❤️

This book is a firm favourite of mine that I’ve read many times.It always makes me chuckle and has such a vein of humour and ridiculous about it that gets to me every time.I love that it doesn’t take itself to seriously and that it’s such an easy enjoyable read.Genre-wise it’s a historical romance set in 1395 lady Emmalene (Emma) upon being ignored by her husband and wanting a family petitions king Richard to order said husband to perform his duty.When her husband dies before this task can be completed the king arranges for Lord Amaury De Aneford an unlanded knight to wed Emma and secure her lands.Amaury is initially reluctant to wed he’s heard the rumours regarding her court visit and is convinced Emma must be a hag so he does drag his feet to the alter.He’s ecstatic to discover otherwise but his delay causes concern as the marriage needs to be consummated immediately to be valid as there is also another party hell-bent on stopping their union.So this is such a humorous read with plenty of laugh out loud scenarios.As characters, Emma and Amaury are a blast and this at times this borders on the ridiculous.Emma is quite the character she’s is very naive and strong-willed not at all worldly and not afraid to speak her mind.She really is a breath of fresh air and takes enjoyment in a lot of the simple things.Her innocence and naivety are the cause of a lot of the hilarious misunderstandings that take place.By contrast, Amaury is equally obtuse he really has some strange ideas and is basically a duck out of water when it comes to his understanding of the fairer sex.He has no problems digging a big hole and burying himself with the outlandish statements that seem to come out of his mouth.Statements that definitely rub Emma up the wrong way.At heart though Amaury is harmless and a decent man it’s all in good fun and added to the whole vibe.The style of narration here very much had a farce flavour to it with all its over-exaggerated characterisation My favourite scene here has got to be the consummation one when everyone is shouting through the bedroom door to hurry them up and accomplish the deed.This book continues to be a favourite and it is one I regularly reread it always leaves me with a warm glow and I especially love the simplicity and the honesty of the central relationship and the incredible fun humour it imparts.Reviewed By Beckie Bookwormhttps://www.facebook.com/beckiebookworm/www.beckiebookworm.com

Delightfully lovely...review here at http://anotherlookbookreviews.blogspo...What a witty and fun read The Deed was. Poor Emma was so naive that she didn't understand what consummating the marriage meant exactly. Sure her husband slept with her one night but the only noise coming from the bed chamber was his snores.Emma's misunderstandings about many different things made me chuckle quite a few times. After two years of marriage and with only one night of sleeping together Emma is desperate to have a child. She takes her plight to the king to see if he could order her husband to bed her. That time in court explaining her dilemma to the king was probably the most humourous part of the book. Here is a sample from last Tuesday's Teaser where I shared a few lines. Although the king does side with Emma, by the time the deed was to be completed, her husband passes away. The king then orders a knight, Amaury de Aneford to marry her. Of course Amaury hears about Emma's visit to see the king and immediately thinks that Emma must be an old hag. The bumbling antics these two encounter with their super quick wedding and then their growing love for each each made for a delightfully lovely read. I enjoyed from page one right until the end. You'll enjoy reading all about their growing care and love for each other and you can't help but have Emma win your heart over. The only thing I wish I could understand more clearly is why her first husband decided not to bed her. It seemed to be left in the air a bit and perhaps left to the reader to determine that answer.I am happy to have purchased this book during a time where proceeds are donated to the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance.
