Romance
The Vixen Princess

EBOOK ISBN: 1-58749-540-6
GENRE: Medieval Celtic historical romance
AUTHOR: Cornelia Amiri



















THE VIXEN PRINCESS

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:

"Ms. Amiri has done a fantastic job of portraying the battles between the Celts and Saxons, but it's the battle of hearts between the two warriors, Mabon and Nesta, that is sure to win you over."  Reviewed by Linda Morelli for  MyShelf.com

"Gwydion's exploits as matchmaker are hilarious, and Mabon's determination to win Nesta's love is poignant." Reviewed by -Faith V. Smith for Romantic Times BookClub

"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." Reviewed by Edith Morrison of Romance Reviews Today www.romrevtoday.com

"The Vixen Princess is delightful read that will draw readers into the story from the first page with Lady Nesta’s declaration of fighting alongside Arthur and his men. Readers will laugh aloud at some of the antics of the ghost of Gwydion and Mabon’s reactions. Ms. Amiri does a superb job developing the storyline and characters while adding a few moments of humor. The battle scenes are not gory but will leave readers chanting for King Arthur and his people. Lady Nesta’s character although very headstrong is not overly so but just enough to prove women can endure and survive battle. Mabon is not a typical historical hero who scoffs at a woman’s attempt to fight but instead embraces Nesta’s ability to honor her late husband. Fans of historical romance will not want to miss The Vixen Princess for it is well deserving of its Recommended Read status!" Reviewed by JoAnn at Fallen Angel Reviews, 5 ANGELS

"I really am not much of a romance reader, but this book had far more of a storyline than what I would expect from a romance book. This book is well written, easy to read, and the story moves along quickly.  You could easily sit down and read this in one day because it actually makes you want to keep reading.  I look forward to reading more from Cornelia Amiri." Reviewed by by PagenReview

"The historical setting of The Vixen Princess is established through a select sprinkling of details: of time, place, and warring loyalties. At times, you can almost hear the clash of swords on the wind; almost feel the tickle of Gwydion’s breath on the nape of your neck. Cornelia Amiri has a very strong foothold in the historical subgenre, and The Vixen Princess is anything but a vexing read. A little bit bloody and a little bit dangerous, yes. The hero and heroine are older and wiser than most, and the teasing historical tidbits in the plot are ever so fascinating. Truly, you have to love a romance that has Celtic folklore -- mystical, romantic, mysterious -- at its core.” Reviewed by Cheryl Jeffries of Heartstrings Reviews

"The Vixen Princess was an interesting story... ...it was easy to identify with the humor involved in the story telling. Nesta and Mabon had undeniable chemistry and were obviously destined for one another. This is one exhilarating read that will not fail to disappoint." Reviewed by Kelly-Anne of A Romance Review
