About this listen

Get ready for another passionate adventure from the Executioner Knights universe. It’s a battle for true love in this stunning and diverse Medieval epic set in Plantagenet England.

Welcome to the world of THE BLACK DRAGON!


Addax al-Kort was not born in England.

As the heir to the throne of a defunct distant kingdom (near present day Pakistan), Addax came to England with a trade caravan when he was very young. He became a page for a powerful knight and worked his way through the ranks and protocols of Medieval England to become a full-fledged English knight serving William Marshal. Addax is part of the brotherhood of Executioner Knights serving the Marshal, but he has a great talent for the tournament circuit. Competing under a standard emblazoned with black dragon, he becomes quite rich.

But something changes the course of his life forever.

A man he thought was a friend.

Addax and Maximillian de Grey, a fellow competitor, are close friends, so close that Addax leaves the tournament circuit to go with his friend to help secure his new legacy when he marries a woman of his father’s choosing. Unfortunately, that’s where the trouble begins, for Maximillian is not a noble man when it comes to women. He doesn't want a wife and he makes that abundantly clear. He has mistresses, openly, in front of his new wife, and steps on everything that marriage stands for.

But the new wife isn't any ordinary woman. Emmeline de Witt is a sweet, beautiful woman who doesn’t deserve what Maximillian is dishing out. Addax is put in the position of comforting his friend’s wife simply out of duty and a sense of compassion, but the inevitable happens. When the woman Addax loves is abused by her husband, will he look the other way because of the sanctity of marriage? Or will he fight for the woman who has captured his heart, no matter what happens to him in the end? He's a man of honor, above all... but will honor be what he chooses?

Addax has lost everything in his life – his throne, his identity, his family. But Emmeline... Emmy... gives him hope that he can know joy once again. In her, he can see his destiny.

Or his death.

Don't miss this rip-roaring Executioner Knight romance!!

Wonderful!

I can’t give enough stars that this one deserves! Addax and his brother was found in an olive grove and half starved. They were brought to England by Chris de Lohr and raised to be great knights. What a delight to see William de Wolfe, Paris de Norvel and Karin Hage as young men in this story.
Brad Wills spoke every word with passion narrating it! He is truly a professional and I always look forward to hearing him. Don’t miss the twist and turns and the emotions brought to the front and center!

I'm ready for Essien's story!

I really enjoyed this book. It had the right amount of romance and enough drama to keep things going. It was nice to get a closer look at one of the two brothers found by Christopher De Lohr and his men during their time in the Levant. I hope that Essien's story is coming to us soon.

Long trip to HEA for this pair.

This couple goes through a lot before they reach their HEA. It seems there is no way for them to come together because of other situations beyond their control and it takes a while before we get to their conclusion. Love conquers all and just when you think it won't come together, bamb! I was so happy to hear the results of this union and that of our hero's brother. Wonderful!

Brad Wills is on top of his game as always!

Loved It!

KLV has done it again. I loved the way the story started, and without giving spoilers, the beginning was heart wrenching. The characters and the story of Addax, Max and Emmy was great. At one point I didn't know which direction this story was going to go, and I felt so sad toward the end. This is a very good story. I can't wait for her next book, and I would recommend this one.

What also made this book special for me was characters from the DeWolf series in their younger years.

Brad Wills of course is always exceptional.

Different but just as entertaining

As always I love the books Kathryn LeVeque writes. She really knows how to make her characters come alive and always makes you feel part of the story. When I finish one book I quickly get ready to start another.
