Synopsis

A warrior with a wounded heart . . .

Strian Eindrideson has served alongside his friends since he was old enough to swing a sword, but beneath the handsome but brutal exterior lies a wounded heart. Separated from the only woman he ever loved, Strian searches for his missing wife until a pair of blue eyes captures his attention during a raid. Will love be enough to repair the damage caused by so many years apart?

A survivor with a painful secret . . .

Gressa Jorgensdottir thought she had everything her heart desired until a battle left her near death and torn away from the man she had married only months earlier. When that man from her past returns her to a land where her Sami heritage makes her an outcast, Gressa must decide whether her life with Strian holds more promise than the pull from secrets that bind her to Wales. Will their need to protect one another be their undoing?

Torn apart during one battle only to be reunited during another, Strian and Gressa must learn to trust one another again, sharing the truth of their time apart while relying upon one another to survive. Will their pasts drive them apart even when their hearts call to one another?

Contains mature themes.
