Destiny cannot be altered.
With Britannia falling to the Saxon hordes, Morgaine, Queen of the
Faeries, has no choice but to make a pact with the Christian monks. She
promises to give them a High King who will unite the Britons against the Saxons
if he takes a queen from the faery realm. Morgaine hopes this will restore the
Goddess faith and return Avalon to its rightful place. She sends Lancelot to
guard the future High King, but when a love potion falls into the wrong hands,
all seems lost.

Gwenhwyfar is the only hope for the future, but betrayal, revenge,
and forbidden love surround her, all of which could send both Britannia and
Avalon into ruins.

Excerpt snippet #8
Morgaine left the stables with a smile. The meadow called to her,
pulling at her heart. It was a special place to her, filled with happy
memories. She stepped between the two yew trees that shielded her secret
meadow. A wooden bridge appeared, and she strode across the marshland. Contented,
she followed the tree-lined path to her favorite spot, enjoying the warm spring
sun on her face.
