“When everything goes to hell, the people who stand by you without flinching—they are your family.”—Jim Butcher, Dresden Files
Welcome to the Ludus Caledonia, an elite training compound where worthy men may sign on years of service to become highly trained warriors. Magnus Stewart has hidden the truth behind his royal bloodline and has fought his way to becoming the top gladiator known as “The Eagle”. Magnus is a proud man that struggles with opening up to his fellow fighters about his past, but when he’s in need of assistance to protect the woman he loves, Magnus discovers he’s not alone in this world…the Ludus Caledonia has become his family…a clan of powerful fighters who would lay their life down to defend one of their own…
Diantha de Mora remembers Magnus from her youth. Both being held hostage for political reasons, their younger years were filled with misery and loneliness. While Magnus was released from his bondage, Diantha finds herself betrothed to a man that is beyond cruel. Seeing a way to save herself, Diantha escapes and flees to the Ludus Caledonia begging Magnus to help her get back to her homeland. An agreement between them is reached, and over the next few weeks, Magnus finds the chip on his shoulder whittled down by this beautiful woman that sees so much more in him than just a fighter…
Is it possible for these two lost souls find a home with each other and in all places a fight club?
Dear reader, I’ve so enjoyed Kathryn LeVeque’s Scots & Swords series, and in her third installment, we have a sweet romance between Magnus and Diantha, where true love does indeed become legendary!
“I love ye…Ye have been mine since the beginning of time and ye’ll be mine until the end of all things...” If you are a fan of her medieval romances, be prepared for the same epic adventure and swoon worthy hero! Highly recommend!
Sharing what I love,
Veronica
