An invading army, a captured enemy, and an unexpected love.
43AD: The despised and dreaded Roman army invades Britannia, determined to crush the Celtic tribes and claim their land for its empire. 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. Instead, when the Romans march towards her hillfort home, intent on conquest, Sorcha is commanded to lead her clan's women and children to safety.
On the way, she captures a Roman cavalry officer and is persuaded to spare his life and hold him as a hostage.
Lucius Gallus Antonius has been raised to serve Rome. Achieving his family's ambition 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 by Sorcha jeopardizes not just his goal but also his life. Lucius must escape and return to the army of Vespasian, to share in its victory as it imposes the will of Rome on the barbarian Celts.
As the displaced Durotriges people settle into their refuge, they face mounting threats from their enemies. Sorcha and Lucius must work together to defend their new homeland. Sorcha begins to forget that the beguiling Lucius is her enemy-while Lucius comes to admire the beautiful and indomitable Sorcha.
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?
