The Vixen Princess
EBOOK ISBN: 1-58749-540-6
GENRE: Medieval Celtic historical romance
AUTHOR: Cornelia Amiri
DESCRIPTION:
Nesta, a fiery, voluptuous, middle-aged widow, decides instead of settling down what she needs is action. So with her dead husband Gwydion's sword in hand, she fights Saxons with the new war leader a 15-year-old lad named Arthur. King Arthur's champion, Mabon, gave up on a family long ago to dedicate his life to king and country.
But to Maben's horror, Gwydion's ghost is called forth from the grave on a quest to bring the sword-wielding widow together with the dark, muscular warrior, and open their locked hearts with the magic of love. Will these two warriors fight falling in love as hard as they battle Saxons? Will love win in the end or has it met its match with two hardened warrior hearts?
REVIEWS:
"I got hooked on this story right from the beginning. The author did a wonderful job of employing just enough Celtic dialect to give due credit to the characters’ heritage, and her use of humor had me rolling from the start. Nesta is a fiery woman, one no ordinary man can claim. Mabon is a hardened warrior who wants nothing more than to give her the love she deserves; yet he has no idea how to go about it. And when the ghost of Nesta’s dead husband joins in on the matchmaking, you can’t help but pity poor Mabon. If you’re looking for a humorous and romantic read, then be sure to pick up a copy of the Vixen Princess." Reviewed by Shannon Leigh Davis of eBook Reviews Weekly
"The time period is realistically portrayed, right down to the battles between the Celts and the Saxons. Cornelia Amiri obviously did her research before ever beginning to write this story. The characters all remain true to themselves, the action is non-stop and I loved Gwydion! This is one Celtic/Paranormal romance I recommend!" Reviewed by Chere Gruber of Paranormal Romance
"VIXEN PRINCESS is a story of two older individuals who still believe there can be life beyond loss, love beyond pain. Watching Mabon and Nesta as they fall in love, is sweet, quirky, and at times touching. If you are a fan of unusual books with a paranormal flare, you might consider reading VIXEN PRINCESS."
