author: Jones, Beth Carlsey
description: The battle cry of bloody Viking invasion swept across Britain, dividing its people into vengeful enemies in a kingdom at war...
  
  And with a blazing spirit as furious as the raging battle was the unconquerable Emma, a fallen noblewoman driven from her war-ravaged homeland of Mercia - and enslaved by the ruthless and fiercely passionate Viking warrior Thorkil. Her mysterious beauty masked her tragic past and, some warned, her powers of witchery. But Thorkil saw a burning need in his captive's dark eyes, and he knew his longing would be impossible to restrain... This tempestuous enemy would be his!
  
  Yet the unbridled desire of forbidden love had a price - their world fell to bloody destruction in a vicious war in which only the heartless survived. Despite the bitter hatred of their people, they surrendered to love. For how could they deny a love destined by the stars?
