Mara, the daughter of an Irish clansman, was raised to believe the men  of the North are heathens - murderous pagans without a moral bone in  their bodies. Despite warnings of the Northmen's raids, and the growing  threat of another incursion, Mara is continually drawn to her favorite  place - the River Shannon.
 Dægan Ræliksen, a wealthy chieftain from Norway's frozen fjords,  secretly discovers Mara at the water's edge. He is charmed by her beauty  and sensuous grace. As the days pass, his contentment with simply  watching her grows thin. He can no longer deny his unabated desire for  the young maiden. His search for a wife has ended. 
 However, Mara and Dægan come face-to-face in a time when Ireland is in  turmoil - when every Irishman is being called up to fight against the  Nordic foreigners. In these times of upheaval, how can Dægan make peace  with Mara's father and acquire the woman he treasures? Furthermore, can  Mara move past her fears and find the noble man within the savage?
