Publisher's Synopsis
Being a matchmaking ghost isn't easy, especially when yo're tasked with getting your widow, a warrior woman, together with a brooding, hardened knight...who both care more about war than love.
Nesta's family urges the fiery, middle-aged widow to get a new husband to protect the villa, but she can take care of the villa herself. So, Instead, she grabs her deceased husband's longsword and joins the 15-year-old war leader, Arthur, to battle Saxons. There she meets the dark warrior, Ulfin. Ulfin is Arthur's champion. And, so skilled in hand-to-hand combat, he has never lost a fight. However, he has never fought love before. With absolutely no encouragement from the two of them, an attraction ignites between Nesta and Ulfin. Unknown to Nesta, Ulfin is being haunted by the matchmaker ghost of her deceased husband. Can this ghost fan the flame of love so hot that even this incredibly stubborn and reluctant to love hero and heroine can't ignore it? Though skilled at guarding a kingdom with their swords, will guarding their hearts prove to be a losing battle for them both? In this second book in the Swords and Roses Duology, the sequel to The Celtic Fox, Ulfin and Nesta are familiar with swords but have to get reacquainted with roses. A Later in Life Romance - Hero and Heroine are over 40 Editorial Reviews "A delightful tale, one that had me hooked from the first page." Reviewer Linda Morelli at Myshlef.com "The time period is realistically portrayed, right down to the battles between the Celts and the Saxons. Cornelia Amiri obviously did her research before ever beginning to write this story. The characters all remain true to themselves, the action is non-stop and I loved Gwydion! This is one Celtic/Paranormal romance I recommend!" Reviewer Chere Gruver at ParaNormal Romance "I got hooked on this story right from the beginning. The author did a wonderful job of employing just enough Celtic dialect to give due credit to the characters' heritage, and her use of humor had me rolling from the start. Nesta is a fiery woman, one no ordinary man can claim. Ulfin is a hardened warrior who wants nothing more than to give her the love she deserves, yet he has no idea how to go about it. And when the ghost of Nesta's dead husband joins in on the matchmaking, you can't help but pity poor Ulfin. If you're looking for a humorous and romantic read, then be sure to pick up a copy of The Celtic Vixen." Reviewed by Shannon Leigh Davis of eBook Reviews Weekly "If you are a fan of unusual books with a paranormal flair you might consider reading The Celtic Vixen." Reviewed by Edith Morrison of Romance Reviews Today "Ms. Amiri weaves a compelling and intriguing tale of two people who don't realize they are truly meant to be together. The fight scenes were drawn to just the right degree to play a part in the story, yet not overwhelm it and detract from the love story itself. The interfering family was just the right touch of humor to keep The Vixen Princess interesting." Barb, reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed
