Another great story by Jianne Carlo.  She has a way of building an interesting and hot romance.  I would definitely recommend this latest book which is the third in a series.  You are re-introduced to the characters in the previous two books and get some closure on some of the issues presented in the other storylines.  I would recommend reading the books in order: Malice Striker, Death Blow, and Vengeance Hammer.Summary:Can a Viking forgive the woman who cheated him of his vengeance?All Dráddor has to do is kill the Earl of Caithness, wed the man's daughter, and vengeance would be his and the oath to his father would be fulfilled. But when he arrives at Caithness, the earl is already dead, poisoned by own wife. And when he finds the earl's daughter, the Lady Xára, he find she's unable to speak. Unwilling to be thwarted, Dráddor marries her anyway to claim the earl's lands and title, knowing King Kenneth could not fault him for later casting her aside.Desperate to protect her family, Xára willingly weds the Viking. She must win Dráddor to her side before he discovers the secret that will destroy all. But the Saracen warrior, Niketas, has other plans. He needs the blood of two virgin half-immortals to win eternal life and the powers of the gods. Until the god Heimdallr, Xára's true sire, makes it clear he has other plans for his beloved daughter...
