Legend of Tariel

As a half-breed with no family name and illicit magic singing in her veins, Tariel has spent her entire life trying to hide who she is and fighting the forbidden desires in her heart. But when Tariel's warden tries to foist her onto a man with a reputation for killing his wives, she realizes all her efforts have been for naught. If she is to survive, she will have to embrace her magic and fight for her freedom - two things from which women in Fjordland have always been forbidden.

When Tariel and her band of strong, sexy heroes finally cross the border into Carliss, they think most of their troubles are behind them. The witch hunter is defeated, her harem is stronger than ever, and they are so close to the Empire they can almost taste their freedom. But when Riann is kidnapped by a group of bandits bent on revenge, Tariel's plans come to a screeching halt. Against all reason, Tariel and her remaining men venture deep into bandit territory to rescue their wayward knight.
