Irish Princess

Ireland, 1160

Aoife MacMurchada is just 14 years old when her father Diarmit, King of Leinster, is brutally deposed, and her family is forced to flee Southern Ireland into English exile. Diarmit seeks help from King Henry II, an alliance that leads him to the charismatic Richard de Clare, lord of Striguil, a man dissatisfied with his lot and open to new horizons.

Diarmit promises Richard wealth, lands, and Aoife's hand in marriage in return for his aid, but Aoife, has her own thoughts on the matter. She may be a prize, but she is not a pawn and she will play the game to her own advantage.

From the royal halls of scheming kings, to staunch Welsh border fortresses and across storm-tossed seas to the wild green kingdoms of Ireland, The Irish Princess is a sumptuous, journey of ambition and desire, love and loss, heartbreak and survival.

Irlanda, 1160 Aoife MacMurchada are doar 14 ani cand tatal ei, Diarmit, regele Leinsterului, este destituit brutal, iar familia ei este fortata sa fuga din Irlanda de Sud in exilul englezesc. Diarmit cauta ajutor de la regele Henric al II-lea, o alianta care il conduce catre carismaticul Richard de Clare, domnul lui Striguil, un om nemultumit de sortea sa si deschis spre noi orizonturi. Diarmit ii promite lui Richard bogatii, pamanturi si mana lui Aoife in casatorie pentru ajutor, dar Aoife are propriile ganduri in aceasta privinta.
