The Warrior

Following The Rogue and The Scoundrel, this final take in Claire Delacroix's historical romance trilogy tells the story of Michael Lammergeier, the son of the hero and the heroine of The Scoundrel. On the night of his 18th birthday Michael embarks on a mission to seek out his ancestral home and to restore its former glory. There he comes across an old crone who claims she was his lover in a past life. She is killed once the battle begins, but her words haunt him. Years later, Michael has become a legend known only as the Hawk, who continues to fight the Maclaren clan.

When he meets Aileen of Abernge, he again is struck that she is his predestined lover and steals her for his bride. Reluctantly, she falls in love with him and helps him defeat his enemies and restore peace to the land.
