Produktbeschreibung

An invading army, a captured enemy, and a new beginning.

43AD: the despised and dreaded Roman army invades Britannia. Sorcha, daughter of the king of the Durotriges tribe, is devasted when her father is killed during battle against the Romans. She yearns for revenge.

Soon the Romans are marching towards her home at Mai Dun hillfort, intent on conquest. Sorcha is commanded to lead the clan's women and children to a distant Durotriges's settlement that borders the lands of the Dumnone, their enemy. On the way, she captures a Roman cavalry officer.

Lucius Gallus Antonius has been raised to serve Rome. The ambition of his family to enter Rome's senatorial class rests with him. He must prove himself as an outstanding leader to Vespasian, commander of the Second Legion, and return to Rome in glory as one of the conquerors of Britannia. His capture and enslavement by Sorcha jeopardizes not just his ambitions but also his life.

Can Lucius escape captivity to return to the army of Vespasian, ready to impose the will of Rome on the barbarian Celts? If not, will Sorcha, the ferocious Celtic leader, ever allow his return?

As the displaced Durotriges people settle into their refuge, the threats from their enemies, Dumnone and Roman, grow. Sorcha must forget that the beguiling Lucius is her enemy, as they work together to defend their new homeland.

Can they fight their growing attraction, or will they surrender to it? And if they yield to their desires, will the fates allow them happiness?

The Celtic King's Daughter, Book #1 of The Divided Isles Saga, is a spicy M/F romance novel featuring: enemies to lovers, forced proximity, and forbidden love tropes.

The Divided Isles Saga, commencing in the first century AD, follows the lives and loves of the Celtic queen, Alina, and her female descendants over generations. Each book is set in a time of division in Britain caused by invasion, civil war, cultural or political differences.
