First line: "There was a time when life was easy, neighbors cared about one another, and charity reigned in the kingdom."


 I'm a sucker for a romance. I really am. And throw in Robin Hood, a strong female and a romance and I'm hooked.
I liked the story of Robin Marie. She's spunky and strong. Daniel is her equal. I liked how their two stories merged.
There is a lot of description in this story so I skimmed the story a little. The characters weren't always real but they were good, strong people who any reader would like to read.
I loved the twist at the end.

Robin Marie

Pacing (I skimmed)

The Stories of Robin Hood is Inspiration for The Rebels of Cordovia

We celebrate Independence Day, remembering the freedom we fought for centuries ago. Many patriots had to pay for this freedom with their lives and we are grateful to those who fought for our liberty. In this new novel, you get a glimpse of what another country had to fight for, as well. The freedom of speech, the freedom of equality, and the freedom to worship as we please! No one could have a greater gift than this.

This tale will entertain those who enjoy bits of adventure, humor, mystery, and a tender love story. The stories of Robin Hood have enchanted readers for years. In our youth, we enjoyed hearing the escapades of Robin Hood and were spellbound by each story and how he cared for the people. How awesome would it be to live during that time period just because of Robin Hood! In The Rebels of Cordovia, a similar story is created but centuries after the legend of Robin Hood. But this time, there are two major groups of rebels fighting for the rights of the people. Daniel, a good-looking rogue, would be the leader of the Freemen. Robin Marie, a young woman, would be the leader of Robin’s Rebels. Each leader is an expert archer and swordsman. With bits of adventure and delectable kisses, this tale will entertain anyone who enjoys a sweet romance.
