In a brutal world inspired by Norse mythology, where warbands reign and rulers will do anything to hold onto power, our heroine is caught in the crossfire of a brewing war.

• Love Triangle – Two dangerously irresistible men, both staking their claim. One is protective and unwavering, the other mysterious and unpredictable. Who will she choose?

• Slow-Burn Romance – The tension simmers for pages, making every glance, every touch, excruciatingly rewarding.

• Touch-Her-and-Die – The warriors in this book do not take threats to their woman lightly. Expect possessive intensity.
