It’s a risk of a lifetime loving a man you’re supposed to hate…
Betrayed by a brother she hardly trusted before the bloodthirsty Viking, Jarl Randvior Sigurdsson, attacks her home, Noelle Sinclair is conveniently bartered as a means to save her cowardly sibling’s skin. Forced to leave her homeland and accompany the petulant Viking to the untamed wilderness of central Norway, Noelle is ever-aware of the burgeoning dangers around her—including her weakening resolve to resist Randvior.
Should Noelle surrender to his resplendent charms and seduction, or fight with every ounce of strength she possesses to get home?

My Review:

I wish this Cover showcased the book a little better. At first glance, I couldn't even tell what it was. I think its the kind of cover that gets passed up. But the Trailer is great and really does highlight the story.

Vikings are such a minority in the Historical department and I really enjoyed reading Violetta Rands version of them. This was a very thrilling story that kept me engaged the entire time. The pacing was well done, the plot was well executed, and the characters were deep enough to not seem flat. 

Descriptions when dealing with another time or a fantasy world are very important to allow the reader to feel like they have been transported there. Violetta Rand did a great job of this!
