Valen Lanvik is a rare jewel, stolen from another world. A Viking stowaway, fleeing an arranged marriage to a brutal Earl... When she battles the sea for her freedom, she finds her salvation in a forgotten cave, hidden through a crack in the cliffs... A cave that leads her to another realm, where Valen finds herself at swordpoint by a man who promises to kill her...and drags her back to his castle. She's human. He's Fae. His people are vanishing. Their queen has been murdered. Their king is desperate for answers. The realm doesn't trust her. But going back is a death sentence. They set out to solve the mystery of the missing...and try not to fall in love. The Fae plead for the mercy of the lost gods... And Valen holds the key... As the battle for Valhalla rages between both their worlds.
