The Viking's Chosen
by Quinn Loftis
His orders are clear: launch a raid against England, and bring home the spoils of war. But the prophecy is also clear: General Torben will take a foreign bride—one who is a seer and a healer just like his mother. The eldest princess of England is said to be just that: a beautiful, charming, and headstrong woman. But he's a Viking army general, and she's an English princess—and one who is already promised to the king of Tara. Two worlds collide in this historical epic that's centered upon an undeniable chemistry that smolders against the odds.
