The Captive Book

Lady Gwendolyn of Wessex will be damned before she became a bargaining chip in the Saxon war against the Vikings. So she decides to split from the keep, but unfortunately falls into the hands of Wulf Geirsson who promptly whisks her away into the woods. Gwen's furious. How dare this heathen treat her like that?! Of course her indignation would be much more realistic if she didn't actually enjoy every moment spent in the hulking Dane's company.

This was a cute, quick-read, sexy tale of a medieval widow coveted on all sides. Some want her for her lands and riches, some want her as a bargaining chip to gain as much power as possible, and Wulf wants her simply because she stirs his blood. ;) But unfortunately she's a Saxon and he's a Dane so their relationship is doomed. Or is it?

If you want to know how an early Dark Age rendition of Romeo and Juliet with a happy ending might sound like, you might as well pick up this story. There's drama, action, mayhem, romance, treachery, revenge, sex, a headstrong Saxon beauty, and a yummy brute of a Viking. Not memorable, but still a nice diversion.
