Passionate Warriors — Mary Ellen Gronau

In an age long gone, in a land of proud Irish and their fierce Viking foes, a thrilling tale of war and love is born -- the drama of a match first made not in heaven nor in the bedchamber, but on the field of battle....

SHE IS AN IRISH WARRIOR BEAUTY, TAMED BY NO MAN.
HE IS A POWERFUL CHIEFTAIN, PLEDGED ONLY TO HER.

Her flaming red hair and regal stance make men speechless. Her name is Dorcas McMahon, a voluptuous Irish beauty who has honed her body and mind into those of a formidable warrior. After five years of exile, Neil McNeil, a chieftain's son, storms into her life. To honor a pact of peace between their two clans, Neil chooses Dorcas as his bride. Immediately, a spirited battle of wills begins, a tempestuous and searing struggle. Dorcas has made a fervent vow that she will never succumb to the carnal desires of any man -- especially a loathed McNeil! But the closeness of battle soon brings the fiery touch of passion, as the sensuous warriors lay down their armor and weapons on the battlefield of their hearts.
