Soothing the Beast (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781648395376)

Two souls looking for love, hearts longing for a rhythm they can share with another.

Frigyth and Sigurd, a Saxon and a Dane, walk their own solitary paths day in and day out, never expecting the two should cross. But when Frigyth is attacked by a Norseman living in Sigurd's village, they find their fates intertwined.

For Sigurd, the attraction is immediate, but how can he act on it? After the trauma she's been dealt, he knows the last thing she needs is another man vying for her attention. He has no choice but to watch her walk away. When a few days later, the beautiful Saxon returns, begging for his help, he can't resist. She needs him to pretend to be her husband in order to spare her from a life she does not want.

But can he accept, knowing his feelings? And if what starts out as a pretense turns to something more, will she stay, or walk out of his life forever.
