Well, in the second book in the Éire’s Viking trilogy, Agnarr is the hero.

Éire’s Captive Moon is one of the few books I gave five stars last year (read my review). To say I can’t wait to read Éire’s Viking would be an understatement. I’m firmly Team Agnarr, so I was stoked when I found out this next book is his story.

I’m excited to be part of the cover reveal for this second title in Sandi Layne’s riveting trilogy. If you haven’t read the first one yet, you should hurry and get a copy so you can be ready for the January release!

Summary:

It’s been years since Agnarr met his wyrd on the Green Island. Years since he left Charis, his former trell and medicine woman, with her new husband in her new village. Even though he lost her, he cannot help but feel his destiny lies with her people of Éire, so he returns with his final raiding party. Once there, a chance encounter strikes him speechless and without his memory, alone in a foreign land.

He is taken to Aislinn, a physician who is serving in Bangor Monastery. Born in Ragor, the village Agnarr destroyed when she was a child, she is now the adopted daughter of Charis and Cowan, and has herself trained in healing. Drawn to her tall, blond patient in a way that she never has been to a man before, she is horrified and angry to find that he is the one responsible for the loss of her home.

These are turbulent times in Éire, and there are volatile tempers all around. Still, Agnarr Halvardson would stay on the island, wed, and sire sons to live in strength and plenty in his adopted home. He wants Aislinn to be his wife and the mother of his children, but she won’t marry without love. He worships Thor and Odin; she worships Jesu the Christ. Can two from such opposing backgrounds find happiness with one another? Might they even find a love that will change both their worlds?
