“When I read the previous book I knew I needed to read this one. I was so captivated by the hero when he made a brief appearance! And I was not disappointed, because he’s really as intriguing as he seemed. I love a brooding hero, especially when coupled with a sunny, kind and feisty heroine! Grumpy-sunshine is one of my favorite trope. And poor Rhys has every reason to be grumpy! He is lonely, crushed by responsibilities, surrounded by enemies and can’t trust anyone. I loved how Helga was able to worm her way into his life and bring joy to his days. She’s a strong woman, much stronger than her mother and sister who are warriors on the battlefield, because she fights with her kindness and her art of healing and her mind (and her crossbow as well!)
Lucy Morris is a great writer, and I enjoyed the accurate descriptions and historical bits as much as the emotional characterization of her characters. I’ll definitely follow her much more closely from now on!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.”

In this third book and series finale of the Shieldmaiden Sisters, it centers on Helga the youngest sister. She feels she is less than her older sisters since she is not a Shilemaiden like Valda and Brynhild. Helga also feels they are ashamed of her since she isn't a warrior like them. Furthemore, both Shieldmaidens have found their lifemates, something neither wanted. Helga is a healer who comprehends and understands the human condition that some enemies called her a witch! She also has a positive outlook on marriage and can’t wait to fall in love, unlike her two older sisters who thought marriage was a prison and being a wife was a type of slavery.
The hero in this story starts off as a villain, like Helga we meet Rhys, a Welsh Prince, the leader of Black Dragon of Gwynedd in previous books of this series. Rhys wants revenge against Jarl Ulf who has mistreated his people and lands horribly, but he has been misinformed thinking Ulf would care about what happens to Helga or her sisters! Plus Rhys had made an alliance for his sister Alswn to marry Ulf’s son Halfdan, but he did not honor his fathers wishes! As he married Helga’s sister Valda, the woman he had always loved! The problem is his Welsh sister is missing, the reason for this abduction where he abducts Helga in book two Tempted by Her Outcast Viking.
Rhys picked Helga due to her not being a Shieldmaiden though he did think she was beautiful but he was a kind abductor not wanting her physically harmed in any way. As this abductor to lover story,though this is not the Stockholm Syndrome as Rhys really listens to Helga and respects her which soon turns to love. Yet what will happen when her strong Shiledmaiden sisters find out? They will want to tear him apart! Will he discover his missing sister? So many obstacles to overcome. Do these star-crossed lovers even have a chance? Read and find out!
Bravo to Lucy Morris who pens a phenomenal breathtaking series finale to her extraordinary Shieldmaiden series that I absolutely and unequivocally loved. Let me tell you this Welsh Prince had me drooling he will definitely have readers swooning! I wait to see what this author releases next! Another fast-paced, action-packed, romantic adventure that historical readers will definitely love. This can be read as a stand alone book or in series order. Both Viking fans historical romance readers will love this book.

“I am loving this whole Viking series by Lucy Morris.
I always am a fan of dual POV in a book and getting to know what both Helga and Lord Rhys are thinking about each other and the different perspectives on the situations/ challenges they are going into really flushes this story out. The world building is there from the other stories in this series, and while it isn't a must to read them, I feel you will enjoy this story a lot more by reading the whole series in order.”
