Book Description

Publication Date: December 15, 2003

A New York Times Bestselling Author

The first time he saw her she was clad in nothing but moonlight and mist and the midnight cloud of her lustrous hair. And from that moment, Thorne the Relentless knew he'd been bewitched by the maiden bathing in the forest pool. How else to explain the torrid dreams that haunted his nights, the fierce longing that kept his hard-muscled warrior's body in a constant state of arousal? Thorne knew of only one way to combat the witch's powerful spell -- to capture her in a Viking raid and make her his own.

Available only in Core 7.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great look into Viking reality, but....., November 27, 2000

This review is from: Viking! (Mass Market Paperback)

I loved this story, but the hero was a little irritating. Thorne the Relentless spots Fiona the Learned in a pool naked on the Isle of Man after he feels a compulsion to go to the island. Immediately he is enchanted and has to have her. He is scared off but returns a year later after suffering a whole year dreaming about her and obsessing about her until he is sure he is bewitched. He is sent to kill the 'witch' on the Isle of Man. He soon finds he can't kill her, he'd rather stop breathing for he feels completely under her siren spell and must have her.

Fiona is no witch, she is a healer. Since she was small, her friend and teacher Brann, has told her she will be captured by her future soulmate, a Viking, on a raid. She is appalled and aghast. She isn't sure Brann is correct, but when Thorne shows up and takes her to his homeland. She soons realizes she is indeed his soulmate and can't understand how Thorne will accept this since he firmly believes she is a witch and has cast a spell on him.

The history here is excellent and is accurate. You get a real life glimpse into Viking life and how they were. I liked Fiona and Brann, but Thorne quickly got on my nerves. He continuously believes that she is a witch and has cast a spell on him. He also believes EVERYONE else besides Fiona when things happen, even a known murderer and liar. The story kept me turning the pages regardless of how Thorne got on my nerves, lol, Connie Mason is a superb writer and this story is worth the read...

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful *Wipe a way Tear*, January 31, 2006

Number one Book of my Favorites of all times!!!!!

This book is darling I enjoyed every last page!! And I will dislike to spoil your fun by telling you what happen but I will say this in the matter if you dislike raped,love intense scenes, an a romance mixed all together then you will by all means enjoy this book. Although I must warn you at times it does get annoying with how the Hero thinks of his Heroine and how his family treats her although its only logical they'll think like that but after awhile you'll be like "DUDE HE LOVES THE FREAKIN GURL JUST ACCEPT HER ALREADY!!!" and then there are the awesome describle scenes that are stuck in your brain (not like thats a bad thing) point is; Get this book.
