Sibeal of Sevenwaters is the daughter of the Lord of Sevenwaters. A druid-in-training, she is tasked by her Uncle and mentor to spend a summer on isle Inis Ealahas as a sort of retreat to contemplate her vocation choice. A shipwreck and a storm introduces the Norseman Knut. However handsome, Knut is a mystery Sibeal cannot resist!
On bookshelves full of romance choices, Juliet Marillier's work stands out as literature. Well researched and crafted, the story is meaty and substantial, inviting the reader to settle in for an enjoyable interlude with a master storyteller.
I thoroughly enjoyed the story and look forward to more from this author!
Book Summary
Get swept away in the romantic fantasy of this national bestselling author's world of Sevenwaters.
The young seer Sibeal is visiting an island of elite warriors, prior to making her final pledge as a druid. It's there she finds Felix, a survivor of a Viking shipwreck, who's lost his memory. The scholarly Felix and Sibeal form a natural bond. He could even be her soul mate, but Sibeal's vocation is her true calling, and her heart must answer.
As Felix fully regains his memory, Sibeal has a runic divination showing her that Felix must go on a perilous mission-and that she will join him. The rough waters and the sea creatures they will face are no match for Sibeal's own inner turmoil. She must choose between the two things that tug at her soul-her spirituality and a chance at love...
