A Kingdom to Claim

Aisley lost everything in a Viking attack years ago. Now, facing a new assault, she works alongside the one man she trusts to fight for her people--and for love. Wessex, AD 878 Aisley's young life was changed forever when her father accompanied King Alfred into battle and lost his life in a deadly skirmish with the Vikings. Despite her rare skill for healing, Aisley was helpless to repair her broken family or their suffering people. Now, almost seven years later, the Vikings are once again rallying against the Saxons, and she fears that her brother may have treacherous plans to betray the king and ally with the raiding Norsemen. When Aisley encounters a handsome nobleman in the market, she feels a stirring of hope. She recognizes him immediately, though they met only once when she was little more than a child. Brecc is one of the king's most trusted men--and he soon becomes Aisley's most trusted confidant. As the two work to find a way to protect their people from the forces threatening the kingdom, their romantic feelings for each other are impossible to ignore. But any thoughts of a future together will have to wait. A surprise attack by the Vikings forces King Alfred and his men into hiding, but the Saxon monarch and his warriors are far from undone. And come what may, Aisley will fight for her king, her people--and the man she loves.
