Britannia, 62AD. Carys, daughter of Sorcha, the chieftain of the Celtic Dun Creg clan, and Lucius, former Roman cavalry officer, longs to prove herself as a warrior. Instead, her family insists she stay out of danger training her siblings and cousins. Defying their orders, she ventures close to the border of their bitter enemies—the Dumnones—and encounters the handsome and beguiling warrior, Breock. Meeting him once isn’t enough and soon she’s falling in love with the enemy.
Breock, chieftain of the Askel Groghen clan, has one mission: avenge his father's death at the hands of the Durotriges of Dun Creg. A fragile peace treaty between the two tribes, which he mustn’t break, keeps the Roman army away—for now. Breock sees a means to achieve his revenge through Carys. But by the gods, soon he’s falling under her spell!
As passion sparks and loyalties are tested, Carys and Breock must choose between love and duty, peace and war, their pasts and a future they never imagined. Can Breock’s growing feelings for Carys overcome his life-long desire to avenge his father’s death? Will Carys heed the warnings of her clan and deny her attraction to Breock?
