A modern woman. An ancient warrior. Will their love survive the deadly tests of fate?

After an unexpected breakup, all Meggie Washington yearns for is a fresh start; what she gets is far more than she bargained for. When she stumbles upon long-forgotten magic, she’s ripped from everything she knows and thrust into a world where magic is real, witches aren’t a fairy tale, and fated love isn’t just something you read about in books.

Colin is a fierce warrior among his people, proud of the power and respect he commands. So, when a peculiar woman in strange clothing claiming she’s from another time arrives, disrupting the predictability of castle life, the last thing he expects is to fall in love with her.

When her presence reignites a decades-old feud with a neighboring clan, Meggie and Colin must decide if love, designed by fate and threatened by magic, is worth the sacrifice and battle to keep it.

They are two souls entwined by magic and destiny. Do they have the strength to protect the love that destiny has thrown in their path, or will it be lost forever?

If you enjoy romance, magic, and tales of fated love and sacrifice, then grab your copy of The Shield and the Thistle today and find out if love truly does conquer all.
