A shield maiden blessed by the gods battles to unite a nation under a power-hungry king—while also fighting her growing desire for his fiery son—in the first book of a Norse-inspired fantasy romance series from the bestselling author of The Bridge Kingdom series.

Bound in an unwanted marriage, Freya spends her days gutting fish, but dreams of becoming a warrior. And of putting an axe in her boorish husband’s back.

Freya’s dreams abruptly become reality when her husband betrays her to the region’s jarl, landing her in a fight to the death against his son, Bjorn. To survive, Freya is forced to reveal her deepest secret: She possesses a drop of a goddess’s blood, which makes her a shield maiden with magic capable of repelling any attack. It was foretold such a magic would unite the fractured nation of Skaland beneath the one who controls the shield maiden’s fate.

Believing he’s destined to rule Skaland as king, the fanatical jarl binds Freya with a blood oath and orders Bjorn to protect her from their enemies. Desperate to prove her strength, Freya must train to fight and learn to control her magic, all while facing perilous tests set by the gods. The greatest test of all, however, may be resisting her forbidden attraction to Bjorn. If Freya succumbs to her lust for the charming and fierce warrior, she risks not only her own destiny but the fate of all the people she swore to protect.

First of all, the good things: the world building was really good, as always with this author's books. You could really immerse yourself in the world. Unfortunately, the story was predictable, so the plot twist at the end didn't come as a surprise. The main female character was kind of exhausting and I didn't like her at all. I'm not sure if it was partly down to the narrator. I have read and devoured the author's last books. I will read the next part.

Great world building

The narrator does an amazing job. I could picture so much of the story, and it was nice knowing the names were pronounced correctly.

The story itself was pretty straightforward, but I didn't mind predictability. I did get tired of the main female character after a while because it felt like she wasn't learning at all. The main male character was a great guy, but sometimes it felt like he was just there to say what I wanted to say to the GMC (and she NEVER listened).

If you like forced proximity and slow burn romance, you'll probably like these two. The world building is secondary, but I liked the Norse mythology and inspiration.

great narrator, solid story

The voice and narrative style of the narrator made me stop reading the book after the first chapter. This is just my personal opinion. Maybe the story is good, but I can’t judge that.

For me, the narrator is one of the most important factors when deciding to buy an audiobook.

Unfortunately, the sample is not very informative, as you only get to hear 5 minutes, and 30 seconds of that is taken up by the "Audible" intro. Additionally, you only hear the sample from the "main character" – other voices are just a matter of luck.

Shame.
