For fans of Francine Rivers’ realistic Christian fiction comes a slow-burn Viking historical romance of enemies to lovers and second chances.
While gathering wild strawberries near her fishing village, thirteen-year-old Brigit stumbles into the path of a young Viking warrior, Reidar. A night terror come alive, the heathen boy is part of a Norse horde descended on Ireland beneath the cover of night. Eager for conquest and glory on his first raid, Reidar takes Brigit captive. But when her terror stirs an overwhelming compassion, he defies his father and saves her from his own people as they raze her village. This unexpected act of mercy sears Brigit’s memory into his soul and becomes his Great Flaw.
Seven years later, the Vikings storm the Irish keep where Brigit is trapped in a loveless marriage. Amid the raid, their young warlord sets his sights on Brigit. Her faith, once her anchor, has withered under years of loss and hardship, and her Great Scorn for Norsemen and all who wronged her has become her only armor. Yet her defenses crumble as she wrestles with a dangerous attraction to her enemy. Bound to her captor’s will and surrounded by savagery, Brigit fights to preserve her dignity and fading faith as she clings to the memory of the boy who once spared her. But the man Reidar has become a hardened warrior, sworn to vengeance and shackled by blood feud.
Both are doomed to ruin unless they open their hearts to the one power greater than the Flaw and Scorn that bind them.
Perfect for readers who love slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance, forbidden love, second chances, and stories of faith, grace, and redemption.
"A beautiful and emotional story! The hurt, anger, despair, and confusion were real and made the characters so relatable. The overall theme was redemption, love, and God strengthening His children to overcome all obstacles. The storytelling is absolutely beautiful, and I am excited to read even more in this series!"
