A widow forced to marry the enemy. A king who must sacrifice happiness for his people. An epic love they never expected. A tale of forced marriage and soulmates set in Ancient Britain.

Saewara, sister to the King of Mercia, has just lost her husband. Finally free of a cruel bully, she wishes to take the veil and retire to a life of peace and solitude. But, the king destroys her plans when he orders her to remarry--to Annan, the King of the East Angles.

Following his kingdom's humiliating defeat to Mercia six months earlier, Annan must 'bend the knee' to his new lord. However, what begins as a forced marriage develops into a slow-burning passion between Annan and Saewara.

Two proud individuals, they must come to terms with more than an unwanted marriage. Leaving her past behind, Saewara attempts to forge a new life for herself as Queen of the East Angles--but her fragile happiness with Annan risks destruction by the ambitions of her ruthless brother.

This emotional third installment in Jayne Castel's THE KINGDOM OF THE EAST ANGLES series is for avid readers of Historical Fiction, Historical Romance and Adventure. Although each novel follows on historically, this series can be read as separate, standalone, romances.
