A Fate Inked In Blood 🩸⚔️
my review 💭💫
my review 💭💫
This was my first time reading a Viking fantasy and OMG I loved it from start to finish!! 🩵
I was oblivious to the entire Norse lore previous to reading this book, but thank you so much Danielle L. Jensen for introducing me to this fantastic world of gods, and mythology, and warriors! 🗺️✨🗡️
From page one I had this instant like for the main character, Freya. She is strong, determined, a lot stubborn, and will go to any lengths to protect those she loves. Then we have Bjorn. He’s powerful, good looking, charming, and a protector. I was obsessed with their dynamic from their first interaction. Bjorn and Freya are my new favorite couple! 😍
I loved how they literally go from flirting and having the cutest banter with each other to being forced to fight to the death soon after that. 🫢
I meaaaan… I was so invested the entire time with everything that was going on!
The pace of this book was perfect. It had the right balance between action, adventure, and romance. It was everything I wanted and needed from a romantasy book. I’m new to the genre, and I believe if you’re also new to it, then you’ll absolutely enjoy reading A Fate Inked In Blood. 🩸
The ending had my jaw on the floor. I need book two asap because what in the world was that major cliffhanger?! 😭
I have so many questions!!
you’ll love this book if you enjoy:
vikings/ norse mythology ⚔️
strong female characters 💪🏻
forced proximity 👫
forbidden romance 🚫
instant attraction but make it slow burn 🔥
all the banter 🤭
spice 🌶️
my rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5
