A shipwrecked Viking; A bronze skinned beauty: destined to find love is the greatest discovery of all…..

Rorik Wolframson, a young Viking explorer, soon learned that love is the greatest discovery of all when destiny brought him into the arms of Werona, daughter of her Algonquin tribe’s honored shaman. Their love for each other would change not only their own lives but the destiny of the New World as well.

Werona dreamed of love as she gathered roots and herbs for her mother’s medicines. When she stumbled upon the body of a huge, blond warrior on the beach she knew that her dreams had been answered. Determined to save him, she fused her mouth to his and breathed air into his lungs, happy to feel the spark of life within him. Shipwrecked far from his Nordic homeland during a storm, Rorik was a stranger on an alien shore. Opening his eyes, gazing upon the dark-haired beauty bending over him, he was certain that she was the goddess, Freyja and that he has died and gone to Valhalla.

Determined to possess the bronze-skinned maiden who saved his life, Rorik vowed to fight the whole tribe if he must, spirit the Indian girl away from these foreign shores and sail away with her to the icy splendor of his Viking homeland. Before he could fulfill his plans, however, Rorik must first find his crew, regain his ship and wage the battle of his life.
Werona’s people had allowed them to live together in peace but the Norsemen were not as amiable. In a society that made its profits on slavery, where a man was judged so severely on family ties and heredity, would a dark-skinned young woman from a strange land be accepted as Rorik’s wife? Rorik was soon to find out.
