Rolf's Quest is another of the stories I'm showcasing in 'Love Least Expected' - an anthology from award-winning authors:
Today we have the author of Rolf's Quest, Aubrey Wynne.
Love Least Expected is a collaboration with stories from various genres, including contemporary/erotic/paranormal romance, crime drama, science fiction/fantasy.
A quest for true love brings together two unlikely people,

themselves. The clock is ticking.

your heartstrings. Beautifully written, rich and lyrical, this story will have
you reaching for the tissues, and leave you feeling warmly satisfied.

Rolf's Quest
Synopsis:
Baron Rolf Arbrec,
the royal wizard for King Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine, is burdened with a
centuries– old quest to free his descendant , Merlin. To lift the enchantment,
he must find true love without the use of magic or deceit, something that has
eluded the male generations before him. Finding genuine love is no easy task,
even for a wizard, If he cannot break the spell and fails his quest, future
generations will be deprived of their chance for happiness. When Melissa steps
from his dreams and into his arms, he realizes his need for her love runs deep
and she is more than just a way to free Merlin. Lady Melissa Garrick travels to
London to meet her betrothed. Along the way, she encounters a man who haunts
her dreams and makes her reconsider her destiny. Torn between loyalty to her
family and her intense attraction to Rolf, she struggles to remain an obedient
daughter. Though she desires him, will she defy her family and turn her back on
her betrothed? Or will time run out and Rolf be doomed to a life of discontent
and bitterness like his ancestors before him?
