1298 A.D. - Lady Diamantha de Bocage Edlington lost her husband at the Battle of Falkirk. Grieving, she is unprepared for the visit of Sir Cortez de Bretagne, King Edward's garrison commander at Sherborne Castle. Dark and fiery from his Spanish heritage, Cortez is a knight with sultry good looks and a quick temperament. He has also come on a mission.
Cortez was the last man who saw Diamantha's husband alive and promised the dying man he would take care of his wife. He has therefore come to claim her. Horrified, Diamantha struggles to come to terms with what de Bretagne is telling her, but in her heart, resentment and hatred stir: Robert Edlington's corpse was left upon the fields of Falkirk and de Bretagne, as the last man to see him, is to blame.
Therefore, before Diamantha will become de Bretagne's wife, she makes a demand of him: return for Robert's body and bring him home for a proper burial. And so, the great Questing to find Robert Edlington's body begins...
Join Diamantha and Cortez on their great journey from the fields of Dorset to the hallowed grounds of Falkirk, a journey during which they discover great and terrible things about the world, their country, and each other. From the ashes of grief rises a phoenix of great passion, and bonds are forged between Diamantha and Cortez that can never be broken.

By Scotswoman The most touching words "my quest is you" have never been poignantly uttered by any of Ms. le Veque's heroes as they were spoken in this latest novel.This visually rich and beautifully written story centers on the recently widowed Lady Diamantha Edlington (daughter of Michael de Bocage from THE WOLFE). As her husband lay dying during the Battle of Falkirk he asks his friend, one of the greatest knights of the realm, Cortez de Bretagne, to grant him a dying wish by marrying his young widow. This was not a hardship for Cortez as he was recently widowed himself, and his dearly departed wife and Diamantha had been best of friends. Cortez had always thought, even during his previous marriage, that Diamantha was THE most beautiful woman in all of England. To him it was a win-win situation.Of course, Diamantha didn't see the situation the same way Cortez did. After a very rocky head start between the hero and heroine Cortez agrees to take Diamantha and her daughter Sophie on the quest to recover Robert Edlington's body from the Falkirk battlefield for proper burial and for final closure on that chapter in Diamantha's life.Along the way to Scotland from England, Cortez and Diamantha experienced many adventures. They were each able to see the other in a new light. The twists and turns in this story were a-ma-zing!Diamantha's 'quest' was to recover her husband's body for closure so she could emotionally move on to the new chapter in her life with Cortez, and Cortez's 'quest' was Diamantha. Be prepared to clutch your heart as you read Cortez's tender vow to Diamantha. Also, have some tissues ready when you read the epilogue.I savored each and every word of this long anticipated novel as if it were a box of expensive Swiss chocolate - it was THAT good!
9 of 9 people found the following review helpful. This Book Had Me At 3% - A Fantastic, fantastic Story - Grab a Box of Kleenex...You have Been Warned By McIn Cortez de Bretagne is a famous knight from a reknowned and respected family. He is dark haird and darked eyed. He is half Spaniard and half Welsh. He has suffered tragedy in his life with the death of his wife and daughter, three years prior to the Battle of Falkirk. At this battle, Cortez the honorible knight that he is, makes a promise to a friend, which he intends to keep and see through.Diamantha de Bocage Edlington also comes from an impressive lineage of famous knights. Her father, Sir Michael de Bocage served Wiliam de Wolfe, her grandmother was the daughter of Christopher de Lohr and her great grandfather was Ajax de Velt. Any one who has read this author's other books will recognize all of these names. Throughout this magnificent story there will be even more names of others you will recognize. Diamantha has the eyes of Ajax de Velt, two-colored and is beautiful with Reddish brown hair.I try not to do spoilers so here it is... these two will meet and the battle, the heartfelt journey and quest begin for all involved.This magnificent book, had me at 3%. What do I mean? WelI, I can tell you at 3% of this book I was sobbing and had to stop reading. Throughout the reading of this book I had to literally have a box of Kleenex next to me. It was that emotional and heart wrenching for me personally.I normally read a book a day. I could not do this with The Questing because I had to stop reading because I was emotionally drained. It took me 3 nights to finish it. Now this is definately not a negative, on the contrary it is a huge compliment to this gifted and fabulous author. I will honestly tell you, I have never come across a Medieval book that has done this to me to this degree. Only one other book came close in this genre and it was Lord of the Shadows and I can tell you it was not to the degree of this book, The Questing.I highly recommend this book. This author slings you over her shoulder and deposits you into such an emotional journey with these characters in The Questing. She has outdone herself.I can only hope I piqued your interest and you can obtain The Questing and enjoy it as much as I did. For me The Questing is a keeper, which I will re-read over and over, over the years.
5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Absoulutely Thrilling By Queen of Books I am so glad I read this book from one of my favorite authors. Ms Le Veque does a fabulous job at writing knights who are so heroic in times when war is involved, especially at the Battle of Falkirk. So many English and Scottish warriors were lost during this episode. You can feel the pain especially when one man is shot with a cross bow and he knows that the end is near. Robert Edlington is that man and he wants a promise from his friend to take care of his family. Robert insists that Cortez de Bretagne marry his Lady wife Diamantha and be a father to his daughter Sophie. Of course, Cortez is astonished by this, and tells Robert that he will get help. But Robert will take no for an answer and Cortez agrees. When the battle is over, Cortez must travel to tell Robert's widow that her husband's last wish was for marriage. Diamantha being the widow with a child to raise, will marry him on one condition. He must take her with him to locate her husband's body and bring it back home for burial. There are many conflicts trying to deter the mission. But their "quest" was destined to bring them on a journey to find love again.
