**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
Lydia Susi is passionate about protecting wolves in their natural habitat. When a hotel chain develops a tract of land next to the preserve, Lydia is one of the most vocal opponents of the project—and becomes a target.

One night, a shadowy figure threatens Lydia’s life in the forest, and a new hire at the Wolf Study Project comes from out of nowhere to save her. Daniel Joseph is both mysterious, and someone she intrinsically wants to trust. But is he hiding something?

As the stakes get higher, and one of Lydia’s colleagues is murdered, she must decide how far she will go to protect the wolves. Then a shocking revelation about Daniel challenges Lydia’s reality in ways she could never have predicted. Some fates demand courage, while others require even more, with no guarantees. Is she destined to have true love...or will a soul-shattering loss ruin her forever?

Tandy Graham leaves the army to to look after her son, Scott on the Arizona ranch she inherited after the death of her father. Life becomes quite hostile from the other ranchers after biologist Wyatt returns to track the wolves he released a few years previous.
This is the first book I've read from Roz Denny Fox and would certainly read more from this author. Marrying the rancher is a slow building clean romance with a hit of suspense and fans of Mills and Boon Cherish will love it.

So, I picked this book up for book club. I was told that it was a "feel good" book that was short and sweet. That is definitely not how I would describe this. "Rules for a Knight" is a small book of fables. One of the fables is almost word for word (might actually be an infringement on copyright) of the two wolves parable.


I'm not sure what I was expecting (possibly a true plot) but the novella was okay. The fables were okay, nothing more, nothing less.

Mediocre Script
Wasn't Bad, Wasn't Good
The story itself was very good, a very cute tale about a woman getting her son back from kidnappers, all taking placein the forest with wolves on the prowl. Although the story was decent the execution was terrible.
With a mediocre script and characters that brought nothing more than face value acting ruined this film.
I'll admit the scenes were executed with beautifully made scenery and anglings but thua was lost to the two dimensional execution of the actual storyline.
