Book description
A princess of defeated Mercia, Rosamund had lost all hope of a future,
until she stumbled across a chained Mercian prisoner. Drawn by Boda's
brutal strength and the defiance in his closed fist, she impulsively
wagered her safety for his and won him from their Viking captors. But
Rosamund's risk is great. For just as Boda's loyalties may not be all
they seem, she too, is not what she pretends to be. And though she
yearns to trust his honor and lean upon his strength, the scars of war
run deep, and betrayal may be the price of love.... A princess of
