Synopsis

England, 1071.
The Norman Conquest is barely complete—and rebellion still smolders in the fens of East Anglia.
As the legendary Saxon outlaw Hereward the Wake stirs unrest, King William the Conqueror dispatches three knights to crush the resistance and secure his rule. But far from the battlefield, another conflict is brewing—one that will change a young woman’s fate forever.
A Norman girl, clever but powerless in her father’s household, is forced into an unwanted marriage alliance with an aging lord from the north. She cannot accept the match. She will not submit. Yet defying her father could mean exile—or death.
With the reckless courage of youth, two naïve girls attempt a desperate escape, never imagining the cost. Betrayed by circumstance, she finds herself alone in the dark, crossing the brutal fenlands, hunted by fear, hunger, and the consequences of her choice.
Thus begins a perilous journey across medieval England—from the marshes of the east to a distant castle near Exeter in the far southwest. Along the way, she must endure betrayal, violence, and trials that will test her strength of will and force her to discover who she truly is.
She is hunted.
She is determined.
And she is far more dangerous than anyone expects.
It is unwise to prod a lioness.
She is quick. She is armed. And only triumph is acceptable.
The Lioness of Exeter is a sweeping historical romance of survival, courage, and defiant love, and the first novel in a four-book medieval series.
