He’s a powerful warrior with painful memories. She’s not who she thinks she is. Can they face the past together? Eithne enjoys her work as a shepherdess. Each sheep has its own name and personality, and she loves spending her days out in nature caring for them. At night, she goes home to her loving parents, her sheep safely locked away behind the walls of their ringfort. But one day, things change when Fachtna and his men move into the nearby keep at the hilltop fortress. Eithne does her best to stay out of their way as they add to the fortress and prepare housing for their families, but she’s unaccustomed to finding warriors in all her favourite places. When Fachtna finds himself in a difficult situation, Eithne helps him, and in the process, discovers a secret about her past that makes her question who she is. But before she can make peace with the past, she finds herself in grave danger. Will she survive? Will she ever have the chance to tell Fachtna how she feels? Can Fachtna come to terms with his own past and learn to trust another person? Can Eithne see past the fierce warrior facade to his heart?
