Synopsis

The Wolf King didn't believe he was capable of love. Barely escaping the cursed throne, he's found a new life in the land of the Gaels. Spying on a redheaded beauty with healer's hands, he quickly becomes enamored. As soon as his gaze sets upon her, so do the gazes of his enemies.

Briar MacLeod is a talented healer on the Moorland frontier. Her mother taught her all she knows, and her father gave her the strength of the Highlanders. When a mysterious bleeding man appears in her barn, her attention to his wounds festers an old one in the Magistrate.

The only person who can tame the elusive Wolf King; she soon becomes entangled in a web of passion, power, and revolution. The Amari Darkness may be gone from Faolan, but letting go of his own is a difficult task.

Ghosts of the past may threaten them, but love is like a thistle. It blooms in the wasteland.

[A retelling of Sleeping Beauty, with elements from Welsh and Scottish mythology].
