Book Description:
 SHE was the Chief's daughter in a small tribe...

To bring an end to an ancient feud between her tribe and another, Leawyn's hand in marriage to Chief Xavier was the only way to ensure peace.

HE was the fiercest warrior of them all...

Plucked from everything she's ever known, and bound to a man she hates, Leawyn must learn to be strong. Each passing day renews Leawyn's longing to escape, but when a new threat from a mysterious foe puts the tribes in jeopardy, everything changes...including her feelings for Xavier.

Bound between duty and honor, Leawyn must make the decision that could change everything. Can she stay and accept her new life, and her husband? Or is Xavier's heart too cold for her to melt?

Lines will be broken.

Blood will be shed.

With love being their biggest battle of all, only time will tell, if it will be enough...to make her warrior fall.

My Thoughts:

It's been a long time since I read anything close to a historical novel. I didn't know what to expect going in but it isn't what I got. This book is raw, in your face and most definitely not for the faint of heart. The pace is fast moving. The characters are well put together and flow easily throughout the story giving it depth and making it an emotional roller coaster you wont soon forget riding.

There is a part of the story that bought me to tears. At points I wanted to thrash some of the characters, others I laughed with. I wasn't so sure I would survive to the end of this tale but it gripped me in such a way that I had to finish the adventure I started on with Leawyn.

This book will make you uncomfortable but prove it's worth it. It's a book that shows a woman has power of her own no matter what period of time she is from if she will but have the courage to look deep enough within herself for it.
