Serafina
de Lavillant, the strongest female knight in the West, was sent to subjugate
the barbarian tribes of the East. But when her mission fails miserably, she is
captured alive and imprisoned. Humiliated and fearing the horrific tortures she
will be subjected to, she asks to be killed. To her surprise, instead of
cutting her to pieces, the tribe's leader asks for her hand... in marriage!
Will Serafina face a cruel and abusive arranged marriage? Or will she discover
that these tribes are not as barbaric as she had been led to believe?
