The story is of a noblewoman who has been in a convent since the age of 12. The convent is raided and the leader of the Vikings (Ragnor) takes her captive.The story was very short. Not worth the price of $2.99.It wasn't your normal 'prisoner' story...as life appeared so bleak and sad at the convent that Elizabeth wasn't really being taken from anything great. The short story also meant that we didn't really see much development of...well...anything. Book timeline is maybe 24 hours. I think I read it in less than an hour.He brings her back to camp. While I'm sure the purpose was to build sexual tension...that didn't really happen with this story. There was no real tension...little resistance...to the change in circumstances.I was somewhat annoyed by the language issue. While I'm sure that is accurate to the time...the fact that there was not much talking between the characters and that there was a language barrier I found annoying. There are better stories out there for 2.99. If you like Viking Books...you might check out some of these...much better written and quality for about the same price.Loki's Daughters by Delle JacobsThe Viking Series by Jianne Carlo (Bear and the Bride, The Peacemaker, The Dragon Slayer, The Seducer).Good Viking Romances are sometimes hard to find.
