A golden warrior of the North . . . Sent to escort his father’s promised bride to the Barony of Valsemé, Rurik Atlison finds himself entranced by the dark-haired beauty and his passions set aflame. Love unexpected, bringing peril to all . . . Tormented by their desires, Rurik and Brienne resist giving into their yearnings and endangering their people. But destiny will not be denied. Their love will burn brightly through all the ages to come as Norse and Frank meld into a new people — the Normans. “Exciting and heartrending. Touched with warmth and humor. One of the best novels I’ve read in years!” — René Garrod, author of Passion’s Endless Tide
