Donald:
Sons of Sagamore
The Pirates of Britannia Connected World
He surrendered his heart
and would give his life for her to succeed.
Andrea Ricard, an inquisitive scholar
of antiquities travels with her uncle to help him with his trade business. When
she finds her mother’s family name on a piece of a map associated with the
location of a rare relic, she is compelled to find it. Nothing will get in her
way to unearth its secrets.
Donald MacDougall Tyler Eden has
enjoyed carefree life, but over the last year he has found satisfaction working
with his brother Hugh, who has a successful investment business. He has forged
a close relationship with one of their business partners, Andrea’s uncle. On a
visit to Hugh, Donald meets Andrea and is smitten. When Andrea finds that an
antique in Hugh’s collection contains another piece to her mysterious map she
is more determined than ever to find the relic. Donald is drawn into her
adventure and volunteers to accompany her on her quest.
Andrea has only told Donald
half-truths for fear he would not join her. The relic is surrounded by mystery
and prophecy. A disgraced soldier with hopes of repairing his relationship with
the king has found out about the relic and is just as determined as Andrea to
secure it for himself.
Andrea and Donald’s belief in what’s
right as well as each other will be tested on a journey filled with adventure
and hardships as they race across the vineyards of the Champagne region in
France, up the east coast of England to an ancient church in Bamburgh.
Can Andrea and
her MacDougall warrior resolve the mystery, face the prophecy,
vanquish the villain… and find their happily ever after.

Snippet
The berserker’s
blade flashed as he brought over his head and sang when he brought it down. He
kept advancing sending his opponent to the very edge. One foot slipped on the
loose pebbles and he lost his balance.
The
warrior reached out to grab him, but the man pulled his hand away. His arms wind
milled as he fell backward.
It
seemed as if time slowed. For a heartbeat, Donald stared at Davenport’s sneer and
then he was gone.
Exciting! Love the cover, too. Happy Medieval Monday, Ruth!
