#NewRelease--ANAM CARA by Keena Kincaid -- #Giveaway!

While hiking Hadrian’s Wall trail in northern England, Keena Kincaid came up with the idea of a medieval murder-mystery with a minstrel sleuth. At some point, her hero opted to woo the local innkeeper instead, and the murder-mystery transformed into an historical romance—a lucky break for the intended victim. In addition to ANAM CARA, she’s written TIES THAT BIND and ENTHRALLED, sequels to ANAM CARA that will be released from Prairie Rose Publications in the summer of 2015.

BLURB:
Bran ap Owen knows it’s “once to die, then the judgment,” but his hell is to live again and again until he rights an ancient wrong. Unlike other souls caught up on the karmic wheel, he remembers the past—and he always remembers her—his ANAM CARA.

Liza of Carlisle knows nothing of the vow trapping her in Bran’s judgment, yet when he walks into her inn, their instant connection is unnerving. She fights her heart, knowing instinctively this wanderer could destroy the life she loves.

Determined to repair the damage of his first betrayal, Bran uses his visions and the knowledge of a thousand years to court Liza. But Fate conspires against them once more—Liza has secrets of her own. When an evil nobleman, Wakefield, determines to have her young daughter, Tess, Liza is pitted against a danger from which there may be no escape.

Bran regains Liza’s fragile trust, but a fresh betrayal threatens their last hope for love. They both stand to lose everything dear to them in their lives, including one another…again…

Can Bran stop the death of his brother? Can he save Tess from Wakefield’s formidable power? Will he finally be able to make things right with Liza, his ANAM CARA…his unforgettable forever love?

EXCERPT:

     Her head snapped up. Hatred painted her eyes a brilliant hue. He held steady, never wavering from the single thread that held true in this tangled knot that was his life. He was Roman first, a soldier second, and a man who loved her third.

     “Hush!”

     “Why? There is no one left to kill me but you.”

     “You will live.”

     “And what is the value of being the only one left?” Her voice was soft, yet deeper than one would imagine from a woman graced with such feminine bounty. It reflected neither her face nor her body, but her power. She was a force that set his blood thrumming and his body reeling. That he still breathed was a sign that she truly loved him. “You promised protection.”

     “You will live.”

     “And I will live alone.”
