Viking's Thrall
Julia Byrne
In the year 904, the small English town of Selsey wakes to the violence of a Viking raid…
Brutalized by her cowardly husband and left to be carried off by the Viking leader, Yvaine, Lady of Selsey braces herself for further abuse before being sold as a slave. She soon discovers that far from being a savage barbarian, Rorik tends to her bruises and protects her from his men. But has he kidnapped her for ransom, revenge against her kinsman, or because he desires her? Until she knows his true motive how can she even contemplate surrender?
Rorik has sworn a vow of vengeance against Yvaine’s cousin, but his plans begin to change as he and Yvaine become closer. But when they reach Norway, he has to face an unexpected challenge to his leadership that will put both their lives at risk. Will their love survive the forces determined to separate them?
