Book Review By Pamela Piarowski
Velvet Song by Jude Deveraux

Alyx Blackett has the voice of an angel...which only ends up causing her problems. Her home burned and her father murdered, she fled to a small camp of brigands overseen by Raine Montgomery. Alyx acts as Raine's squire, hiding as a boy, but she finds herself becoming more and more attracted to the handsome and demanding outlaw knight. How long can she keep her secret? Alyx's love changes the lives and the hearts of the Montgomerys, and their blood enemies, the Chatworths, forever. Jude Deveraux's "Velvet Song" is a melody of love, loss, adventure, and passion.
