About the book
HE WAS THE STRONGEST MAN OF HIS TIME -- UNTIL SHE BECAME HIS WEAKNESS... Beautiful, devout, young Tara, a novice in a country abbey, finds her cloistered life suddenly destroyed when Viking invaders burn the convent and take her prisoner. Wedded against her will to the pagan chieftain Rorik, Tara slowly overcomes her fear as Rorik introduces her to the joy of passionate love.
