Tara: Taken (Viking Guardians Book 5) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 17 ratings

Captured and enslaved. Can he rescue her from his enemy? Will she ever see her homeland again?

On an innocent day out, Tara is suddenly snatched by Viking raiders. Unable to escape, she soon finds herself on a longship bound for the land of Norowegr and life as a slave. She is certain she will never see her homeland or her family again.

As a travelling merchant, Erik often visits marketplaces around the land. One day as he is approaching the marketplace, a chain of slaves approaches. As they pass, he catches the eye of a stunning woman and instantly he knows that he cannot rest until he learns more about her.

The following day, he goes to the slave auction where he intends to bid for her. But she is beautiful and the bidding is fierce. The price goes above what he can afford and he watches in horror as she is bought by the man who destroyed his village and killed his parents.

Erik is desperate to rescue her from a life of tyranny. But will he be able to find her? Can he set her free without his enemy finding him?

Tara faces a horrifying future as the slave of a cruel man. Will she ever see her homeland again?

This sweet and clean novella is set in the days of Norway’s King Haakon the Good; a time when the Vikings left their homelands to raid and plunder; when Christianity was making tentative approaches and kings fought for the right to rule. It can be read as a standalone or enjoyed as part of the series. However, there are some references to previous events in the series.

    A well written story with well written characters and storyline. A glimpse into history and how lives may have been.
    A good conclusion of the series.
    Each are a stand alone but so much better when read in sequence.

    As part of a series, I believe this book can be read alone but should be read in sequence to get the full effect. The author has created a wonderful journey filled with characters I wanted to get to know. It illustrates the power that one man's generosity can have. So check out this book and the series for yourself.
    I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    I very much enjoyed reading this story. Tara was stolen from her homeland and taken to a foreign land to be sold as a slave. Erik sees her and has to have her but an enemy gets her instead. Will Erik be able to save Tara? Will Tara ever be truly free again? Read this great story and find out.

    A great story of a miraculous turn around in a number of lives due to the great and generous heart of one man. It also covers the issue of revenge versus forgiveness, and how choices play out in the kind of person and life ensues from those choices. A truly lovely read. Leaves you feeling elated with what God can do - even if it's just in a story. Recommend it.
