Named after the Norse God of the Sea, Njörd grew up sailing, swimming, and fishing the fjords of Norway. Endowed with extraordinary senses, speed, and strength, he became known as Wolf of the Nordic Seas, leading lucrative Viking raids from the Baltic shores to the Black and Caspian Seas. When a Viking völva foretells his future through a seidr vision, Njörd learns that his fate and his mate—the siren with the sea goddess eyes—lie on the alabaster coast of Normandy in the distant Land of the White Chalk Cliffs.
Elfi Thorfinnsdóttir is a skilled shieldmaiden who seeks vengeance against the ruthless Frankish count who killed her brother and abducted her father in an attempt to seize her clifftop castle. But rather that submit to the count’s relentless demand for her hand in marriage, Elfi allies with Richard the Fearless—the Viking Duke of Normandy— and the Danish Jarl of Ribe known as the Wolf of the Nordic Seas.
As Elfi and Njörd discover startling secrets about their respective pasts, they find that the three Norns have entwined the threads of their fates not just as political allies, but as mates destined to fulfill a divine prophecy.
Wolf of the Nordic Seas— book 2 of the Valiant Vikings series set in tenth century Normandy— is a sizzling, scintillating blend of historical fiction, Norse mythology, paranormal fantasy, and steamy Viking romance!
Excerpt
Elfi shivered as the mammoth Viking took her hand and lowered his massive head, brushing bristled lips across her sensitive skin while the lupine eyes of the wolfskin observed her with a lurid, otherworldly glow.
Gilded by the golden sun, Njörd’s thick chestnut hair gleamed, radiating the salty scent of the sea. “I am honored to meet you, Elfi of Étretat.” A current flowed up Elfi’s arm at his unsettling touch.
“Ribe is a vital Viking trade center on the western shores of the North Sea,” Richard continued, oblivious to Elfi’s distress. “Njörd is known throughout Denmark as Wolf of the Nordic Seas.” The deep timbre of Jarl Rikard’s voice magnified the menace of the name. And the thick white fur and haunting eyes of the monstrous wolfskin further intensified her unease.
Njörd rose to his full, towering height—still clutching Elfi’s trembling hand.
She looked up into his deep blue eyes, caught in the maelstrom of his mesmerizing gaze. An inexplicable, immutable bond linked her soul to the Wolf of the Nordic Seas. Mouth parched, heart racing, Elfi’s unsteady legs shook under her grey woolen gown.
