The Viking’s Yuletide Woman by Cynthia Breeding
Ohh! It’s been a long, long time since I’ve traveled to Viking days, and now, thanks to Ella and Bronwolf’s story, I’m wanting to stick around more!
The barbaric Vikings aren’t warring according to normal rules (hahaha! But of course!) and Ella finds herself playing the part of the princess hostage. Which may have been the right decision to make...or maybe not… Balancing between acting the princess and standing up to the Viking invaders, and bowing to the evil prince and keeping him at arm’s length, Ella finds herself also fighting off an attraction to Bronwolf. Which is hard to hide as well as deny. And really, who would want to deny Bronwolf?
Bronwolf, while one of the prince’s closest men, stands apart from his fellow Viking warriors. He’s been able to keep a hedge around himself to prevent the evil from his prince to leak into his heart. And because of that, has devoted men and a presence that draws others to him. Especially a particular princess-playing maid. His ability to command, to lead, and to protect just make his struggle-filled pursuit of his Ella all that more swoony-sigh worthy.
With just enough drama, heat, excitement, and danger, Ella and Bronwolf’s story enchants and keeps you turning the pages till you at last reach the last page and really consider begging for just another chapter, or two, or three….
