Fiery Roses: Book Two in the Band of Roses Trilogy

Irish Kings still rule the Emerald Isle, and part of the kingdom is burning. . .
In the thrilling sequel to A Band of Roses, a major discovery of offshore gas ensnares Crown Princess Talty Boru and her Royal Consort Neil in a web of blackmail and murder. When the residents of rural County Mayo object to plans to run pipelines over unstable bogs, an arsonist tries to change their minds. One of his fires triggers a chain of events that sends newlyweds Talty and Neil to an ancient Mediterranean world at the mercy of a waking volcano.

The people there believe that Talty is the Goddess Pele, the Goddess of Fire, and that she has come to calm the volcano and save them. Their leader, a tyrant with a shocking secret, makes his own demands on Talty and Neil, whose fledgling marriage comes under fire as they struggle to find their way back to Ireland.

Meanwhile, King Brian Boru and his Fianna lock horns with ruthless oilmen scheming to bully their way across the bogs. The resulting conflict infuriates Ireland’s royal family, but can the clan close ranks in time to save the kingdom they are sworn to protect?
