Mara, the daughter of an
Irish clansman, was raised to believe the men of the North are heathens -
murderous pagans without a moral bone in their bodies. Despite warnings of the
Northmen's raids, and the growing threat of another incursion, Mara is
continually drawn to her favorite place - the River Shannon.
Dægan Ræliksen, a wealthy chieftain from Norway's frozen fjords, secretly discovers Mara at the water's edge. He is charmed by her beauty and sensuous grace. As the days pass, his contentment with simply watching her grows thin. He can no longer deny his unabated desire for the young maiden. His search for a wife has ended.
However, Mara and Dægan come face-to-face in a time when Ireland is in turmoil - when every Irishman is being called up to fight against the Nordic foreigners. In these times of upheaval, how can Dægan make peace with Mara's father and acquire the woman he treasures? Furthermore, can Mara move past her fears and find the noble man within the savage?
Teaser Quote:
“You are correct in
saying that desires often come from things we cannot easily gain—mine, being
that of your love. By all accounts, I do wish I could steal it. But I am not
that sort of man. I will wait. Forever and a day…I will wait.”

Breandán Mac Liam, the
strapping young hunter from Ireland’s lush forests, is in love with Mara, an
ineligible beautiful princess. For seven long years, he has been vividly
haunted by her memory, taunted by the throes of his heartache. And not even the
thought of her marriage to a Northman can extinguish the fierce, burning desire
running rampant through his heart and soul.
An innocent heart…
Mara, the spirited
Connacht princess, has no idea she is the object of the Irishman’s longing. She
is living out her days on Inis Mór, raising a troubled son and trying to endure
the cruel loneliness that afflicts her.
A deadly secret…
Ordered by the king on
his deathbed, Breandán must return to Mara and bring her through the perilous
lands of Connacht to fulfill her father’s last dying wish. But as their worlds
collide, Breandán not only finds himself wrapped in the arms of Mara’s embrace,
but thrown into a struggle to defend his honor.
With Mara caught between
the family she loves and the father she knows, can Breandán uncover the mystery
of her past and still protect her from a secret that threatens them all?

Leif Dæganssen, an archeologist from Norway, is determined to trace back his Scandinavian roots as far as the Dark Ages and find proof of their existence on the Emerald Isle. After several years of living off the west coast of Ireland, he finally uncovers an ancient artifact—an intricately decorated chest with pagan carvings—buried beneath the very porch of his coastal cottage. Knowing it only confirms the presence of a glorified Norse-influenced settlement on Inis Mór, he’s determined to establish a link between himself and those who once inhabited the rugged isle.
For as long as she can remember, Lorraine O’Connor has had dreams of a Norse warrior kissing her. And even though she’s never fully understood the reason for her vivid subconscious imagination, she welcomes the meaningless and wanton pleasure of being in a Viking’s protective embrace—until the day she meets that brazen Northman on an impulsive vacation trip to Ireland.
Though blindsided by the relevance of her dreams and the strange familiarity of the man within them, Lorraine can’t help but feel a deep-seated intimacy toward Leif. And the more she gets to know him, the more she’s convinced they’ve shared a life together in a time long forgotten.
Are
the clues to their ancestral past hidden within the contents of the chest or
buried deep within their hearts?
Teaser Quote:
“What Lorraine has told you is the
honest truth. There’s no denying who you are. But until you go in that house
and dig up the evidence for yourself, you’ll never know who you used to be. Oh,
I know you’ll realize it one day. By then, I fear it’ll be too late. So, don’t
be a fool and let the only woman you’ve ever loved slip through your grasp.
Three days, Leif.”
Reviews:
"I
didn't believe it was possible to take Daegan and Mara's incredible love story
to another level, but I am extremely pleased to be wrong. Every word seemed to
have a purpose in helping create a beautiful and poetic ending to an
unforgettable trilogy. If you've never heard of the name Renee Vincent then
you're missing out on quality reading that's worth every second of your
undivided attention. It's an escapists dream and I will most certainly be back
for more."
