The Viking's Shadow Lady - Maureen Castell - Bog

She was born a lady. He was raised a Viking. They weren't supposed to fall in love. Sixteen years ago a mysterious sky ship crashed through a hole in the world, dragging a trio of Norse ships into the seas of Bronze Age Northern Europe three thousand years before their time. Beren was a child when the Norsemen arrived. He grew up learning the ways of his adoptive family and is now skilled in sword and bow. However, he is not eager to follow the path expected of him. His heart-parents are both great warriors and he...is not. He'd rather tinker with the sky ship's cargo and the small portals they open. Then, one day, he succeeds in opening a hole large enough for a man to walk through...or a woman to run. When newly widowed Lady Elizabeth Conroy flees the pirates who killed her husband, she finds herself in a room full of Vikings. But these are not the savage barbarians she's read about, even if they won't answer her questions: how did she step from a ship in the middle of the Caribbean into a stone room on the shores of Denmark; why does one of her rescuers look more Arab prince than Norse warrior; and why do her hosts speak of 18th century England as if it is farther away than a few hundred miles? What will Elizabeth do when she finds out her home doesn't exist, that she's trapped in the past with no way back to her own time, and that the man she's falling in love with is responsible?
