A Shift in Fortune:  Lost Legacies #3  

This novella is told from Bryn's (the Valkyrie) POV. This is a fast-paced shifter fantasy adventure with a focus on Bryn as she is getting used to her powers that she never knew she had until recently and also has a side of a budding sapphic romance with the oldest of Nemain's adopted shifter vampires she is caring for now. 


While they meet one of Nemain's old friends who happens to be a rogue Valkyrie to hopefully get proper training to understand Bryn's powers, they run into a bit of trouble and they all work together to sort it out. Some new sassy characters are introduced and a few amusing moments with Mikhail and Nemain where they are both avoiding the fact that they are very much into each other. It seems that Mikhail is waiting for Nemain to make the first move. He's a centuries-old shifter vampire, he has all the time in the world for her to make up her mind to give in to their obvious attraction. She just needs a little push. I'm hoping that will happen in book 4 because this slow burn is killing me.
