Lady Brenna Carmarham, a Celtic beauty more interested in making war than keeping house, is powerless against the Norsemen that trick her father and raid her land. Captured and enslaved by the Vikings, Brenna vows vengeance as well as a promise to never be owned. However, the man she is given to claims her body in a way that overpowers them both. Garrick Haardrad vows to master the fiery beauty but finds his own heart captured by her spirit and pride. Between the two, fierce hatred, passion, cruelty, and love combine to make a powerful story of clashing wills. Much pain and doubt must be endured before Brenna and Garrick can claim love's rewards together.
