She had the fierce spirit of a warrior--and the passionate
heart of a woman in love.
He is called Conn of the
Hundred Battles, the warrior-king who forged a nation from
a land of isolated clans. As High King of Ireland, he
rides with the legendary Fianna, his elite band of
warriors. But a threat to the throne looms from a
mysterious scourge who has vanquished several of Conn's
bravest warriors. Conn rides out alone to face a seemingly
invincible foe, never expecting that he will confront a
grief-maddened hellcat with emerald eyes and hair like
liquid flame....
Wielding a sword called Vengeance,
Gelina ó Monaghan has sworn to defeat the man she holds
responsible for her family's ruin. She never dreamed she'd
be bested by him in combat...and lose her heart in the
bargain. Their forbidden passion will become a private war
fought with swords and kisses, promises and betrayal--and
surrender will be only the beginning....
