When a fierce shield-maiden touched by the Valkyries is forced to marry a powerful Norwegian earl, fiery passion ignites, and destiny unfolds.
Freya: Born of seers and Vikings of old, I never could have imagined my father someday ordering me to hand over my shield and blade to the man he made me wed.
Nor could I have fathomed that man would be Earl Soren Dahl. A warrior chieftain known for his battle prowess and incredible feats, who has long wanted me.
When he arrives on my shores to claim me, I expect to despise him, yet he sets my blood afire. More telling, my mystical talisman claims we are fated.
Soren: From themoment I laid eyes on Freya Helvig, as a child, I knew she would someday be mine.
Though it took years of making a name for myself and building my tribe into one of the most formidable strongholds in the Kingdom of Norway, I finally claimed her. Or at least I tried.
My beautiful, feisty bride-to-be is a force to be reckoned with. A force I welcome, ready to go to battle and conquer her heart, no matter what it takes.
