CONGRATS TO ShaMona Hagan Winner of my Valentine’s Blog Hop!
856 CE, Ireland is a land of myth, magic, and blood. Viking raiders have fought the Irish for over half a century. Rival Irish clans promise only betrayal and carnage.
Kaireen, daughter of Laird Liannon, is suddenly forced into an arranged marriage with her sworn enemy, a Viking. She refuses to submit. With no mention of love, only land and the protection of her clan, she endeavors to get her betrothed banished from her country. Will love find its way around her stubborn heart?
Bram, the Viking, finds himself without future or inheritance as a younger son in his family. A marriage to the Laird’s daughter would grant him land if he swears fidelity and if his men will fight along with the Liannons against any foe – Irish or Viking. However, the Laird’s feisty daughter only holds animosity for him and his kind. Is marriage worth the battle scars of such a relentless opponent?
With the blame for a rival Laird’s death treacherously set against the Liannons, Kaireen and Bram must find a way to lay aside their differences as an unforeseen darkness sends death snapping at their heels.

Bram sounds terrific! My favorite Valentine candy is conversation hearts, my favorite card would be the first one my daughter drew for me in preschool, and my favorite Valentine’s date is my hubby. Thanks for the giveaway and being part of the hop!
Thank you 🙂 I like the conversation hearts too. A good way to keep your daughter’s card as a keepsake is to put it in a photo album or even a picture frame. Thanks for stopping by.
I’ve added your book to my TBR it sounds like an exciting read I really don’t have a favorite valentine’s candy however I love Godiva chocolates and I eat them year round.
Ooh, Godiva, yum. Thanks for the TBR and for stopping by.
Hershey’s kisses, card from mom, date with friends
Those are three good things to have on Valentines. Thanks for coming by.
See’s Nuts & Chews, a valentine from hubby and the gift of dinner out with him too! I just got both of the books in your Viking series so haven’t read them yet. jdh2690@gmail.com
Jdh,
Wow! Thank you so much. Let me know what you think of the stories. A gift with hubby is a great valentine 🙂
We have a great chocolate store here in town that does chocolate covered popcorn and chocolate covered graham crackers. My husband knows I love those but won’t normally buy them so he will get them sometimes on Valentine’s
Tina,
Chocolate covered popcorn? I’ve got a new favorite 🙂
Thanks for stopping by.
favorite card came from hubby and i have em all….in the 90’s he gave me my favorite gift and asked me to marry him on valentines with an ad in the paper and a heart shaped diamond ring….. favorite valentine/date is him… so yearly we celebrate together… the date isn’t anywhere near as important as just being together.
Diana,
That was so romantic. You’ve got a great husband there. Hope you both have a wonderful V-Day.
Thanks for coming by.
Those Reese hearts, flowers for the garden. Walk along deserted beach
Dawn,
Reese’s hearts? I’ll have to scope out the store for those. A walk along a deserted beach sounds nice – dawn or sunset?
Thanks for stopping by.
My favorite Valentine candy is chocolate covered cherries.
Patricia,
I love chocolate covered cherries too. A little too much since I could easily eat the whole box.
Thanks for coming by.
Your books are added to my Wish List.
Favorite Valentine treat: chocolate, of course. I’m addicted to chocolate, particularly dark chocolate. Favorite gift: anything made by my children back then (they’re now adults but I’m sure soon, my grandson will start making me nice drawings – he’s a little over 3 years old).
Liette,
I’m right there with you on the dark chocolate. Your grandson will undoubtedly make you wonderful drawings.
Thanks for stopping by.
My favorite Valentine Candy is chocolate covered coconut ♡ I love getting Valentine Cards from my husband and hoping to have some lobster tails for a nice dinner. Thank you ♡
Linda,
Lobster in butter sauce and that would be an awesome dinner. I hope your hubby gets you a wonderful card and dinner along with chocolate covered coconut for dessert.
Thanks for coming by.
My favorite candy is Hersheys Hugs. Favorite card would be a handmade one telling me how much he loves me. Favorite date would be a candlelit dinner and then watch a romantic movie snuggled up on the couch.
Chocolate, home-made card, and snuggling are a winner for a Valentine date.
Thanks for stopping by.
Favorite Valentine candy is chocolate covered cherries my engagement ring not so much a card but was by far the best gift I have ever received!
An engagement ring on Valentines? Sweet 🙂
I am signed up for your newsletter:)
Thank you so much! Glad you stopped by.
anything chocolate, any card hand made by my kids and favorite date would be the first date my husband (then Fiancée) went on. We went to red lobster, pulled in next to another car and realized it was a father with his sick son. He asked me if I could page his wife who was inside the restaurant already because he didn’t think their son was gonna make it through dinner. I said sure and asked her name. He said Janae (and last name) and it hit me, THAT will be my daughters name if I have one. sure enough 2 years later I had my daughter and yes her name is Janae, that was almost 19 years ago.
Hopefully the son was okay, but that’s a cool story about Janae and knowing it would be your daughter’s name.
I love chocolate covered cherries! The really liquidy kind.
Candy,
I know, right 🙂 If they ever made an ice cream that tasted like them, my freezer would be full.
Thanks for coming by.

Jo Anne,
Oooh, a mountain lake and candlelight…I might have to use that in a story 🙂
Thanks for stopping by.
My favorite Valentine candy is anything dark chocolate. I don’t have a favorite Valentine card. My favorite date is my husband.
Janie,
I love dark chocolate too and was the one who dug in the mix bag for it. Thanks for coming by.
My favorite valentine candy is chocolate, and lots of it. Thanks for the chance to win.
One can never have too much chocolate 🙂
Thanks for stopping by.
I like dark chocolate, my mom’s snarky cards, and the date depends on the interests my guy and I would have in common…
Trix,
Those are three great things for Valentine’s Day.
Thanks for coming by.
I don’t really have a favorite Valentine’s Day candy. I can’t eat sugar and my favorite candy is dark chocolate and they don’t really make a lot of good sugar-free Valentine’s selections where I live. Favorite card is whatever card I get each year (none this year – my husband forgot about Valentine’s Day). Favorite Date: I don’t have one of these either. I would love to have a romantic dinner at a restaurant on the beach followed by a long, barefoot walk in the sand. Cliche, I know, but I still want it.
Michelle,
I’m sorry your hubby forgot about Valentine’s Day. This year, I bought the candy and flowers for him 🙂
Yes, there needs to be better sugar-free candy – if I could – I’d pay a fancy chef to create some. Happy Valentine’s day, I hope you get your walk on the beach.
Hi! Happy Valentines! Sounds like a great hero! Definitely looking forward to read this. I love chocolate, my favorite is the chocolate caramel. I dont have a favorite card or date. Thank you for the awesomeness!
