    About this series

    Gwen, a girl from the twenty-first century, was kidnapped back in time to become King Arthur's Queen Guinevere in book one, The Dragon Ring. In book two, The Bear's Heart, she presented Arthur with his heir. But a dark cloud hangs over her son's birth, and she can't be sure Arthur believes the baby is his, nor even if he still loves her.

    With a head full of the Arthurian legends, Gwen knows both too much and too little. She's a girl from her husband's future keeping all she knows a secret-out of fear some of it could be true.

    However, she also fears that if it isn't, revealing her suspicions could be the one thing that might make everything she's afraid of happen. And she loves Arthur too much to let him die at Camlann.

    For love, she follows her husband north to the old Roman Wall and the town of Vindolanda, then beyond the Wall into dangerous enemy territory. She has to leave behind the quiet librarian she once was and discover her inner warrior queen, as she sees the battles her husband is famous for unfold before her eyes.

    And at Viroconium, the sword is waiting for the only man who can draw it from the stone.

    Contains mature themes.

      Gwen, a twenty-four-year-old librarian, lives with her boyfriend, Nathan, in a small house, with all the accoutrements of modern living any girl could ask for. When her father dies, it's left to Gwen to fulfill her father's wishes and scatter his ashes on the top of Glastonbury Tor in Somerset, England. Stepping into the ruined church tower, a gold ring catches her eye-a ring embossed with a dragon emblem. She's snatched into the dangerous world of the Dark Ages, where she discovers she's expected to fulfill a prophecy, by marrying Prince Arthur and helping him become the king of legend. Will she stay with Arthur? Arthur, Prince of Dumnonia, and son of the ailing King Uthyr Pendragon, has ruled the hilltop fortress of Din Cadan for his father since he was a boy of sixteen. But he has an older brother who looks set to inherit both the kingdom and the High Kingship. Tall, handsome, ruthless, he's less than convinced that any prophecy can decide his future, and he doesn't think he needs a wife. Taking Gwen with him, further and further from the Tor where she had hoped to return to her own world, he sets off to outwit his brother. Will he grow to love Gwen? Contains mature themes.

      Gwen, a Dark Age queen from the twenty-first century, is cursed with the knowledge of a future she dreads. In a time of murky history and confusing legends, Gwen, a girl from the twenty-first century who fell back in time to become King Arthur's Queen Guinevere, has no idea which of the tales told by her late father, a fanatical Arthurian scholar, are true. Her worst fear is that history is fixed, and she might be merely treading a path long laid down for her, that she can do nothing to alter. Every decision she makes could lead her closer to the doom that hangs over the people she's come to love-Camlann. The battle in which Arthur, the man she's given up everything for, is destined to die by the hand of his wicked nephew, Medraut. Will her questions be answered as she marches north with her husband to battle the invading Saxons? Will she even survive? Contains mature themes.
