Well, I knew if many of my friends were slapping 5 stars on this book, I had to read it. They were right, it’s a 5 star read.
This isn’t my typical type of read, but I fell in love with the world building and all the characters. I especially adored Oliver. It definitely had a Game of Thrones vibe to with the setting in a far off land with scary rulers.
I can’t wait to start book 2, although I am a wee bit nervous with the author saying there is going to be at least 5 books in the series with book ...more

This was the best kind of treat, when that email hit my inbox that Gilley had dropped a surprise (to me) book I about sprained my one click finger to grab this.
It's a slow burn romance about more than just the one couple in a whole new world and I loved it! Nobody writes slow burn quite like this author does, she's one of the few authors whose books I never want to end.
I think this series is going to end up being one of my favourites. The world building and rich characters are a delicious treat ...more

4.5 Stars! This was amazing! I loved everything about it. I keep wondering how I’ve never read Lauren Gilley before…she is that good! Her Sons of Rome White Wolfand her Hell Theory seriesKing Among the Dead are now on my summer TBR list.

Rating: 3.5 stars
A heartwarming, humorous story of unexpected acceptance of friendship among the barbaric Northman. A family saga. Tessa finds herself in a difficult position of choosing duty over desire. The dynamic between Ollie and Erik is off the chart.
Ollie may be a bastard, but he can verbally hold his own against any worthy opponents. That also includes the King. Love the interactions.
