About this ebook

1456 – During the Wars of the Roses, suspicions about loyalty run high. Hidden among the humans, secretive fae couple, Aioffe and Tarl, struggle to maintain their peaceful existence in a small town in medieval Wales. Aioffe longs to belong, but strict religious expectations weigh heavily on her. As the snowy festive season approaches, Tarl plans to reveal his true feelings to his love, but their romantic evening is interrupted by an unexpected visitor.

A heavily pregnant Margaret Beaufort appears on their doorstep, seeking their help and protection after the death of her husband, Edmund Tudor. Together, the trio embark on a perilous journey to find sanctuary, braving treacherous weather, a duplicitous witch and danger at every turn. As they seek answers and safety, Margaret’s pursuers draw closer, threatening to tear them apart.

Can Margaret survive to fulfil a prophecy, and will fated mates Aioffe and Tarl ever commit to each other?

If you love romance, magic and medieval history, you’ll love this pacy Christmas tale. Set in rural Wales, this quick read is your perfect taste of a magical midwinter, rich with festive symbolism and a romantic proposal!

About the author

By day, Jan juggles consultancy work with her family, but by night she sneaks off, into the past. Her penchant for sprinkling history with magic is fueled by coffee and Cadburys. When not writing, Jan takes her dogs and small monsters into the countryside, especially if there is a castle or historic building there with a cosy coffee shop in which to escape the rain of Manchester, England.
