      In her captor’s bed!

      Women are not part of Sigurd Sigmundson’s existence, and Eilidith should purely be a means to an end to gain access to a well-guarded Viking stronghold. He would have to be made of iron, though, not to be stirred by the warmly sensual woman beneath her ice-cold shield.

      Liddy has been made to feel ugly and insignificant because of her facial birthmark. Surely her captor couldn’t physically desire her? But, oh, how the stifled, passionate Liddy yearns to experience unrestrained love in his arms...

      ‘Of course I might be willing to sell my daughter,’ her father said. ‘You may have her in lieu of this year’s harvest.’

      ‘I volunteered to be a hostage, not a slave!’ Liddy cried. ‘A hostage has certain rights. A slave has none.’

      ‘You offer your daughter as tribute?’ Sigurd asked, in a tone chipped from last winter’s ice.

      ‘Aye,’ her father said heavily. ‘I may have to sell her on the open market to raise the amount required if the harvest fails.’

      Something flickered in Sigurd’s eyes and his face became more carved in stone than ever.

      ‘I will buy her from you...if the price is right.’

       Author Note

      For the last four years my youngest son has spent part of his summers volunteering on the Scottish island of Oronsay. The first time he returned home he told me all about the Vikings on the west coast of Scotland, and how the Viking fleet had been based on Colonsay. I was intrigued, and wanted to do some more research. In September 2014 I was lucky enough to spend a week on Islay and Jura as my husband wanted to go whisky-tasting. The weather, contrary to all expectations, was blue skies and sunshine the entire time. I had a thoroughly good time and became more determined than ever to write a Viking romance set on the west coast of Scotland.

      It took me a little time to get it right, but here it is.

      As ever, I do hope you enjoy reading Sigurd and Liddy’s story as much I did writing it.

      I love getting comments from readers and can be reached at [email protected], or through my publisher, or Facebook or Twitter: @MichelleLStyles.
