Heart of Legend

Award-winning author Martina Boone creates an evocative romantic novel about illusions, last chances, and embracing hope set against the magical backdrop of North Wales and the glitter of an epic Hollywood historical film.

Kath Cameron escaped a horrible mistake by running away to Hollywood, hoping to become someone else. Then her acting career plunged off a cliff after a divorce from her mega-star ex-husband. When casting for the lead in the Welsh version of Braveheart reopens weeks into production, she has one last chance for a reboot.

Filming on location in Wales, she finds herself working around the clock with the Dai Rhys, the film's director. And Dai has an uncomfortable knack for seeing past the lifetime of armor plating Kath has built up for herself.

Dai took up acting as part of his PTSD treatment after leaving the British army. Now he's spent more than a decade paying his dues, and The Last Prince is the project of a lifetime. He's had to replace one star already, so he can't risk any more complications by getting involved with Kath. Now if only his heart would listen to that advice. He's always had a protective streak two miles wide, and Kath's slow smile and vulnerability make him ache to show her how good an actor she can be.

Dai and Kath are both fighting to rebuild their lives. They know the film and their reputations are at stake, but as Dai pushes Kath to face her fears, they can't help opening themselves to each other. And that places the two of them in the kind of danger neither of them saw coming.
