Unwanted Mate
Isla is the unwanted daughter of her father and his second wife. Her days are spent in servitude while being ignored. The hope that she holds close is that she will be sold to another family to become their servant.
Bjorn has assumed the role of jarl after his father's death. With his best friend by his side, he and Magnus take a tour of his lands and search for a bride. At the end of the tour, he is offered a quiet and shy woman, and he agrees to take her as his wife without meeting her.
While in Londinium, Bjorn and Magnus sense their shared mate but are unable to find her before the rushed wedding. The two dragons continue to return to Londinium as they search for the unknown woman.
Returning from their excursions, they discover that the quiet and shy woman is anything but quiet or shy. Isla is holding her own secrets while turning their world upside down.
Finding their home in chaos, Bjorn calls on the one person who could bring the unruly Isla to heel. They soon find that not even Bjorn's headstrong and domineering stepmother can control his new wife.
But she does reveal the secret that the young bride has been hiding...
