What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
A sizzling fantasy romance from the No.1 Sunday Times bestseller & TikTok sensation Danielle Jensen, perfect for fans of Sarah J Maas & A Court of Thorns and Roses.
Trapped in an unwanted marriage, Freya dreams of becoming a warrior – and of putting an axe in her controlling husband’s back.
But those dreams become a nightmare when he makes a deal with their fanatical ruler, and she’s forced into a fight to the death. To survive, she must reveal her deepest secret: she possesses a drop of a goddess’s blood and magic that will unite their nation beneath the one who controls her fate.
Believing he’s destined to be king, the ruler binds Freya with a blood oath and orders his fierce but charming son to train her to fight, to control her magic . . . and to make sure no one lays a hand on her.
But the greatest test of all may be resisting her forbidden attraction to the son of her enemy.

Gosh, that’s quite a story! I am looking forward to completing it soon.
The narrator sounded like they did an excellent job with some extremely difficult pronunciations for my dyslexic English ears. There is a heavy Norse myths influence on the characters, story, setting and Gods particularly with the names of people. I enjoyed listening to this aspect as I know I would have had to skip over most of the names if I’d been looking at the page to read.
Good description and character development with plenty going on in the plot. It was a great read!dizzydyslexic 2026-09-29 -
