This is the second book by Delle Jacobs that I have read and I must admit it was just as amazing if not even more so that the first. This book tugs at my heart because we see women who have lost everything, but because of their leader, they refuse to be broken. Everyday they struggle to survive and without Alienh they probably couldn't have carried on. When it looks like the women can't take any more hardship more comes in the very thing they hate above all others. Vikings. Yet are they here to cause trouble? They certainly not acting like the Vikings of the past the women have come to know and fear.We follow the story of a group of women struggling to surviving, but refusing the only help they have been offered simply because it is the Vikings that offer it. We watch as the women band together to protect their own and how they struggle to  let go of past hatred in order to trust the men who have proven themselves worthy.I loved watching the relationships develop between the characters. Ronan was Alienh's Viking boy, yet she cannot let go of the past and his Viking blood enough to see him as the man he has become. I admired Ronan as a leader and as a man. He protected what he loved and he wasn't afraid to fight honorably for what he wanted. Alienh was one  of those characters that make your heart swell with pride for her strength as a woman in a time where women were supposed to be sweet and docile and then again she is one of those characters that make you want to just shake your head for her stubbornness. In my opinion they make an excellent pair :)Delle Jacobs has done it again and stuns me with her skills as a writer. I most definitely look forward to reading more of her work. Would definitely recommend this book.
