![]() Rorik is the Lord of Hawkfell, an island off the east cost of Britain. But she is the one taken as hostage to use as a pawn against him. Her life changes utterly one fateful day when Rorik and his men come to Clontarf, a Viking fortress on the eastern coast of Ireland, to kill her half-brother. Mirana is a Viking woman who loves birds, is more ingenious than most men, and loyal down to her toes. Rorik is a Viking warrior, as fierce and savage as the North Sea during the winter solstice. It is a season of growth and flowering, of treachery and malice, of love and learning. It is the season of the sun in Norway, the clear midnight light of summer. She wears the slave collar around her neck for all to see, but bears his distrust of her and her own pain deep within her. Zarabeth does eventually return with Magnus to his farmstead in Norway, but as his slave, not as his wife. But her stepfather, Olav the Vain, has no intention of setting a bride price on Zarabeth. ![]() ![]() ![]() She is both stunned and fascinated by his bluntness, but is soon won over by this man who makes her laugh, brings her desire, and ultimately makes her trust him with her future and that of her little sister, Lotti.
