The Seventh Son: Norman Conquest, Book 4

York takes the reader on a journey back to 11th-century Ireland in the fast-paced and enjoyable fourth Norman Conquest romance (after The Irish Warrior). Tadhg MacNaughton has become chieftain upon the death of his father, Padraig. The old chieftain had broken off a treaty that joined the MacNaughton family with the O’Briens, an act that annulled Tadhg’s betrothal to his beloved, Tisa O’Brien. Before Tadhg can craft a new treaty or reinstate the betrothal, Tisa’s father weds her to Darragh Meic Lochlainn. Tisa is very unhappy in her marriage and her new home with the Meic Lochlainn clan; her cruel husband is not sexually attracted to women and, she fears, cannot protect her from other men who wish her harm. When she and Tadhg meet again, they learn that the spark that was kindled between them years ago has never been extinguished. York expertly combines her historical knowledge with romance and intrigue in this alluring tale of parted lovers whose greatest desire is to be together once again. (BookLife)
