The clouds swirled, the breeze sang, and the meadow
cushioned her fleet steps. Tomorrow her
fate would be sealed, but this moment was hers.
A
low hill rose before her. Pausing, she
breathed deeply of the crisp air and the scent of pine needles. She removed her brown mantle, tossed it over
her arm, and started up the hill. Not
far ahead, a bird’s caw mingled with the rustle of leaves.
And
there was another sound, deep and low. A
male voice. A smooth, rich timbre
interwoven with the wind. It wended its
way into her ears like music.
Soul
of the Wolf – Blurb
A Norman loyalist, Lady Jocelyn bristles when
ordered to marry Wulfstan, a Saxon sorcerer. She nurses a painful secret and
would rather bathe in a cesspit than be pawed by such a man...until her
lifelong dream of motherhood rears its head.
A man of magic and mystery, Wulfstan has no time for
wedded bliss. He fears that consummating their marriage will bind their souls
and wrench his focus from the ancient riddle his dying mother begged him to
solve. He's a lone wolf, salving old wounds with endless work. But Jocelyn
stirs him as no woman ever has.
Their attraction is undeniable. Their fates are
intertwined. Together, they must face their demons and bring light to a
troubled land.
