My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What would you do for love? Bernard is a solider who lost his entire family at Pearl Harbor. Bernard travels back to alter history, saving his family; but, the consequences are so dire they may have begun Ragnarok. Given one chance to set things right, Bernard works with his fellow solider and partner, Alva, to do just that. Yet as they do someone is doing all they can to make them unsuccessful. Will the two be able to figure out who it is? Will they be able to work together to save the nine realms?

I really enjoyed this book. It had a little bit of everything. Vanlandingham does an amazing job with her world building as well as the dynamics of her characters. This is the first book of hers that I have read but I will be going back to read her previous books while patiently waiting to see what comes next. Definitely worth the read.

~Fantastical Romance will have you reading through the night~

A read I picked up last week to be honest for the cover (I’m a sucker for good covers!!!) There were a number of other good reviews as well as a very intriguing synopsis. What drew me in though was the characters development. They stand alone really well on their own, but the author does a phenomenal job of bringing them together in a way that is truly exceptional.

This is typically my favorite genre to read; fantasy, romance, a little bit of darkness. What I haven’t read before is the tinge of history you get from this. I have to say it drew me in the way “Vikings” or “The Last Kingdom” did…such a good presentation it had me actually interested in Mythology and the historical context around the storyline.

Overall a great, straightforward read. If you are on the fence it has just the right amount of uniqueness and originality to make you begging for more.

From the start your taken on a magical journey to the unknown which sucks you in. It’s full of action and suspense and flows perfectly. Alva and Bernard must find a way to work together to protect the nine realms but of course and find others to help.

In a desperate attempt to bring his family back, solider Bernard tries to change their fates. Instead he changes history and almost destroys the world in the process.

Alva has a dilemma of her own as her partner has started the countdown of ending the world in their own way.

The two join forces to stop the world from ending but at what costs.

This was a book I couldn’t put down. The cover caught my attention but the premise was even more interesting. I was worried that I wouldn’t get immersed into the story but I was hooked right away.

I look forward to reading what happens next.

This is such a great blend of romance, action, and fantasy. I was drawn into the magical world that the author creates from the very first page. I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next! I really enjoyed the Norse mythology that was woven throughout. Bernard and Alva are drawn together but something is holding each of them back. They must work together if there’s any hope of saving the Nine Realms. This book is a real page turner that will have you captivated and on the edge of your seat the entire team.

Bernard and Alva are both brave, intelligent, and troubled heroes, who have lost their families and live their lives far from where they started. Bernard lost his parents and guardians long ago, and his wife and children at Pearl Harbour. Alva’s father died recently, and she is estranged from her mother, the queen, and her sisters because she refuses the practice of killing men to draw energy. Together with the goddess Freyja and other assistants, they defend the Nine Worlds from destruction. Bernard is so gutted about the war and the loss of his family, that he attempts to change the course of history to save them – unwittingly setting into motion a cascade of unintended consequences. As they battle together to right the wrong, they’ll need to use every power and person at their disposal.

I loved these two characters, and how they grew as people through the course of the story. They are flawed, but also courageous, loyal, and and loving. The authour wrote them masterfully. Exciting story and lots of action.

I enjoyed this fantasy story. This is a well written story about saving the NIne Realms and lurking enemies. This is a fast paced story that kept me engaged to the end. A story that is full of adventure where the characters had me coming back for more. I enjoyed how the characters are connectable and their growth throughout the story. They pulled me into their world and made me want to know what happened next. I enjoyed the growth of the plot as it made the story entertaining and easy to read. Will everyone be saved or does fate have something else in store for them? I enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it.

4.5 stars

This author has given us a story that is a blend of romance, fantasy, and Norse mythology. It starts off a little slow but soon gets going and entices and intrigues till the end. With a beautiful descriptive narrative, intricately woven threads, and great world-building leads to a tapestry of enjoyment. There is plenty of action, magic and emotions, desperation, sadness, happiness, and everything in between. With elves and characters of all types, this tale is one you can tell the author has put heart and soul into. This book is the first I have read by this author, and I enjoyed it immensely. I had devastating news early hours of this morning and this story was able to get me out of my head for a while. With twists and turns at every angle this is one thrilling and suspenseful tale.
What would you do for love?

Resistance soldier Bernard Marchand would do anything to bring his family back from the dead, but in his desperation to change their fates, he alters history and nearly destroys the world. Faced with the consequences, he’s horrified at what he’s done. It was never supposed to be this way.
As a Huldra, Alva should have stolen her partner’s life energy, drained him to the brink of death. Instead, she went against her natural instincts and helped him win the war against a dreaded enemy. However, when he inadvertently starts the countdown to Ragnarok, Alva will have to ignore the ache in her soul as she fights to save them once again.
And that’s just the beginning…
An unknown enemy lurks just out of reach and interferes in their every effort to restore Earth’s historical timeline. But why? What is he after? Will they be able to focus long enough to save the Nine Realms, or are they doomed to the horrific reality they unwittingly unleashed?
