ÆVA The Nest of Snakes
by Claire MarionPublish: May 31, 2020Historical Romance Historical Fiction Teen & Young Adult Book Overview
Aeva is a queen – in theory. Having pled her vows to Bayan under the watchful eyes of Gunnlaug Snake-tongue, she’s now the highest-ranking woman in all of Northumbria. In reality, she’s a prisoner, her guard the implacable and immovable Aelric. Though Idin was horribly injured at the fight of Eboric, he’s still alive, and all Aeva’s focus is fixed on getting to him.
First, though, she'll have to survive. Between the scheming Vikings and the snakes within Bayan's court, she can trust no one. Trapped in the middle of a political battlefield no less dangerous than the physical one she's just endured, Æva must learn how to navigate the volatile situation - and learn fast. Her future, and the future of the whole of Northumbria, depends on it.
