Eyes of the Seer (Book two in the Warrior Kings series)
He wishes to prove himself…
Marcán of Clonascra bears the bloodline of Brian Boru and his
prowess as a warrior has earned him great respect from everyone but Astrid, the
woman who holds his heart. Between her mother’s condemning him as a pagan Seer
and Astrid’s total disinterest, he finds solace as the king’s protector and
confidant.

She is desperate to escape…
Astrid is more than ready to wed but her brother, the king, is
in no hurry to see her married, so she decides to see to her own match-making.
The man she approaches quickly reveals his lack of honor, but her overbearing
mother pushes her to wed him anyway. When Astrid discovers Marcán’s love for
her, will it be too late to have the happiness she’d always dreamed of?
