AN INVOLUNTARY KING: A TALE OF ANGLO SAXON ENGLAND by
Nan Hawthorne
The younger son of a Saxon king unexpectedly finds
himself wearing the crown when his father and older brother are slain in an
attempted usurping. His is a story of a young man striving to prove himself to
others and to quench his own self-doubt. He is aided by his queen, the love of
his life, and his loyal friends, but finds himself beset by monumental
challenges. He must overcome threat in battle, from treachery, and from
setbacks that shake him. The queen is relentlessly pursued by a darkly sensual
mercenary who will do anything to win her away from her husband, even
cold-blooded murder. While the king wages battle in his wife's homeland she is
caught behind enemy lines and joins in the fight to restore the sovereignty of
the kingdom. Hard choices must be made and more conflict faced before the king,
queen, and their children will be together again. This novel is the story of
steadfast love amid brutal battles, devastating loss, heartbreaking betrayal,
yet with acts of remarkable devotion and even humor along the way.
