A knight with nightmares, a novice with dreams of passion

Sounds like an intersting story, but it lacked something. Cicely has spent 10 years in a nunnary but hasn't taken vows--to a regious order anyway, though she did vow her father she would never be a nun. She sees her chance when she saves Simon, a physically and mentally tormented knight from the Crusades. She finds a way to make him take her with him when he leaves. During their battle to stay together and marry-Cicely offers her body to Simon at every turn in the road, Simon tries to keep her chaiste no matter what. Well of course Cicely wins, but by then I really didn't care.
