What happens when your carefully constructed world is turned upside down?
In the traditions of Marion Zimmer Bradley's Forest House and Lady of Avalon, Priestess of Fire, is the sweeping love story of Maelle and Cynnet and their role in the destiny of ancient Scotland and Britain.
As high priestess of the Goddess, second only to the Lady of the Eternal Hearth, Maelle has complete control over the element of fire, but apparently no control over her life, her destiny, or her heart. She finds herself at a crossroads where the past, present, and future are colliding...with a good bit of force. She's sent to Ystrad Clud by the Lady with two important missions -- heal the wife of head chieftain, Cynnet, and request his military support for the Isle of Man. What seems like two easy tasks quickly becomes an entangled mess the more time she spends with the brave, passionate chieftain whom she met ten years ago and dreamed about ever since.
Meanwhile, Cynnet's values of honor and loyalty are being tested. Even though his marriage to Ainsley isn't one of love, his life is still bound to her through their three sons. When Maelle comes to his keep to heal his wife, he can't seem to leave her alone and many in the keep, including his eldest son, take notice. Ten years has done nothing to temper his wild attraction to the high priestess. As head chieftain, father, and husband, he walks a very thin line between meeting the expectations of his people and his family and securing a future with the woman he truly loves.
As their journey progresses through battles at sea, heartbreaking decisions, dreadful dungeons, unexpected surprises, and sacred rituals, they learn that people aren't always what they seem and "fate has had help" in their lives.
Can the love they share survive guilt, manipulation, and the treachery of those around them?
Set in 6th century Scotland and the Isle of Man, this 100+ page novella is a prequel to Lady of the Eternal Hearth which tells the tale of their daughter, Nora, and Gawaine of Lothian, the famed knight of Camelot.
