Publisher's Summary

She wants to rule the land and he lives for the sea. Is their love fated or cursed?

Shieldmaiden Brenna may be young, but she knows her mind. As the daughter of King Aric’s most trusted Huscarl, she is well-schooled in the art of battle and weaponry: skills vital for defending what is hers. Having fought to defend her homeland against would-be usurpers, she knows the cost of plunder and pillage.

Vali is a seasoned warrior. His thirst for adventure and battle has served him well in his many raiding expeditions. He has no use for the politics of position and land, preferring the freedom of the open seas.

Brenna and Vali’s young love is torn apart when the King offers Brenna’s hand in marriage to the Jarl of his most important trading centre, Birca. Believing this to be the will of the gods and a prophecy revealed to Brenna as a child, she agrees to the marriage.

Death brings Brenna and Vali back together to defend Birca. As their love is rekindled, Brenna must choose between Vali and the prophecy once more.

Her fate has been determined by the gods, but is it the destiny Brenna has always believed in?

Girl Power

A historical romance based in the times of the Vikings and with one bad-ass female lead, how could we go wrong!?

I met Tanya Nellestein at a local market of mine and after purchasing a few of her books, I went onto Audible and downloaded The Valkyrie's Viking to listen to while driving. I will admit Viking based books have not been something I have ever been drawn to and now I ask myself "Why the hell not!?"

Brenna is the main character every woman should want to be. She isn't waiting around, like a damsel in distress. She is forward thinking, a born leader and one strong woman. Brenna has been dealt some hard cards in her life but didn't let that stop her from doing what she had to.

I loved the way Nellestein brought to life a world that is long lost. She kept the passion without making it repetitive or predictable. She created characters with heart and warmth and passion.
