Immortal Outlaw (Immortal Brotherhood, Bk. 2)

For centuries he's hidden in the woods. Now a maid has come to lead him out...

It's been four centuries since Steinarr the Proud was cursed by a wicked sorceress--along with the rest of his Viking crew--to live for eternity as half man, half beast. By day Steinarr is like any other man--by night he is a lion. He has taken refuge in the woods of Nottinghamshire, England, and there he encounters two young travelers, Robin and Marian.

Painfully aware of the danger he presents when the moon rises, Steinarr initially refuses to help them search for the key to Robin's inheritance. Then a kiss from Marian awakens his desire. Driven to protect the maid he so desperately wants to possess, Steinarr joins their quest...while the sorceress Cwen gathers her dark magic to destroy them.

As a legend spreads of an outlaw in the woods, their band is joined by others. But it is Steinarr who has the most to gain and the most to lose--if he is ever to be free of the curse and free to love as a man...
