Book excerpt: Experience the land of Deverry as never before in this new high fantasy romance series inspired by Celtic mythology. Reincarnated as young lovers, Nevyn and Jill test the bounds of their own magic while facing powerful enemies. Orphaned by a cholera epidemic, Neb and his young brother are sent to the desolate farm of their last living relative. But when the savage Horsekin tribes begin raiding the villages along Deverry’s western border, the brothers must flee for their lives. A chance encounter with Salamander—a bard and master of dweomer magic—proves their salvation, as he brings them to the shelter of Tieryn Cadryc’s dun. Here, Neb finds love with his soulmate Branna only to be dragged into a war for the very survival of the kingdom. And though both Neb and Branna are gifted with dweomer magic, they are also facing powerful enemies they have fought before in past lives they no longer remember.
