"Heart Rending"
To read this is to is to suffer. The story is heart breaking, the tragedy of war, the love found and denied, this is an epic story. I cried, I had to put it down to recover from the sorrow. Well written, good editing, I loved it!"
​A powerful historical novel about the human will to survive, as a family is torn apart by war.
​
     The year is 1066. The Duke of Normandy has arrived on English soil, quickly quashing any uprising from the native Saxons and wresting the crown from King Harold.
The men of Tresche are a strong Saxon family. Made up mostly of bastards, the men are warriors from the moment they are old enough to hold a wooden sword in their tiny hands. Nothing could prepare them for the army of Duke William, and nothing could prepare them for the losses they suffer at the Battle of Hastings. They are left with only their memories of the past as they embark on a journey to bring the shattered pieces of their lives, and their family, back together.
Goodreads Review - 5 out of 5 stars
"Amazing"
A great second part to a trilogy. Anxiously waiting for the final book to find out if the family is reunited or if they're all dead.
​A battle for a crown leads a woman down a dark and desperate path in the second part of this heartbreaking trilogy.
​
     It is 1066, and the battleground at Hastings has fallen quiet. The only sound that is heard over the murders of her surviving countrymen is the voice of her brother, “Run!”
Leaving her brothers on the battlefield, Lady Ash must find a way to survive while William holds them prisoner. For the first time in her life, she finds herself without the strong guidance of her brothers. Now Ash must stay one step ahead of the King while anticipating the day she can reunite with her family. Always a strong fighter, Ash is plunged into a world of violence and brutality for which she finds she is unprepared. Will her journey lead her back to her brothers, or into the hands of the King?
The story of a family that carries  on, even when it seems impossible.
​
     Duke William has crowned himself King of England, but the English will not rest until they have pushed the King off English soil. To secure his place under the crown, King William sends his troops north to begin the Harrying of the North. Among his arsenal is the man who has become known as the Devil’s Hand. He and his army leave nothing but death and destruction in their wake as they do the King’s bidding. But William doesn’t trust the Devil’s Hand, a man he named Roan the Traitor. The King put a great deal of time into creating his perfect killing machine, and he does not trust that the mighty House of Tresche will not try to reclaim him.
     As the battleground at Hastings quieted, only one member of the House of Tresche was free. Now there is only one of them left under William’s thumb, and his family wants him back. It is no longer a battle for the crown, but one for a family torn apart by war. Will the mighty House of Tresche succeed in freeing Roan? Or is it too late to save the man once known as Roan the Fearless?
