Her Celtic Captor by Ashe Barker

As the sister of a powerful Viking chief, Brynhild Freysson is accustomed to giving orders and having them obeyed. However, her world is turned upside down when she finds herself at the mercy of Taranc, a Celtic warrior determined to bring her back to his village, regardless of her wishes.

Once a leader of his people, Taranc was captured by Viking raiders. Now free, he refuses to let a headstrong Norse woman hinder his journey home. When Brynhild defies him, he swiftly administers a stern punishment, making it clear that further disobedience will result in even harsher consequences.

Despite her deep-seated hatred for the Celts, Brynhild finds herself drawn to Taranc’s commanding presence. His dominance awakens desires she thought long buried, and when he claims her, the pleasure is beyond anything she imagined. As her passion for him grows, Brynhild grapples with her confusion and conflicted loyalties. Can she truly love a man whose people are enemies of her own?

But the more her own future becomes entwined with that of Taranc and his people, and when long buried truths begin to emerge, she realises that the past was not as she believed and the choices facing her are simpler than she thought.
