Excerpt Tour + #Giveaway: Warlord by Miriam Newman @GoddessFish


5

Warlord
by Miriam Newman
GENRE: Historical Fantasy Romance


BLURB:

Ganina is a young girl with love to give, but giving it may cost her life.




Given to a famous old warlord to seal a treaty between two tribes, Ganina is a young girl with love to give. But Atulfa is old enough to be her grandfather. Then Atulfa and his oldest son die under mysterious circumstances and it is rumored that a younger son, Senec, has arranged their deaths.
Left without the old man’s protection, Ganina is fodder for the vicious torment of his other wives. She has no choice but to cast her lot with Senec.
Whatever he is, he is the new warlord and she is now at his mercy.


Excerpt:


Desperately, she glanced aside at the Westenian whose name she couldn’t say. But some things did not need words. There would be a funeral feast in Atulfa’s great red-dyed tent, at which his widows would serve the guests as a mark of respect. The foreign chief would be there. She must get close enough to tempt him. If he took her for the night and she pleased him, perhaps she would be given to him. Anything to leave the dreadful camp that had been her waking nightmare for two years.

He wasn’t bad-looking: tall, blond, bearded. It could be worse. She had never known a man; Atulfa had been too old and disabled to take another wife in anything but name. The thought of lying with one terrified her, but it was that or death. Seen in that light, he was really quite attractive.



AUTHOR Bio and Links:

Fantasy poetry driven by myths and legends has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I was published in poetry before catching the romance writing bug. I bring that background to my writing along with a lifelong addiction to horses, an 18 year career in various areas of psychiatric social services and many trips to Ireland, where I nurture my muse. My published works range from contemporary fantasy romance to fantasy historical, futuristic, science fiction and historical romance. Currently I live in rural Pennsylvania with a “motley crew” of rescue animals. You can see my books at www.miriamnewman.com.
