A powerful völva priestess…
A renowned Viking playboy…
A forced marriage…


Though born into Viking nobility, Edda Sorensen rejects the life her father and society expect of her after suffering a heartbreaking betrayal. Instead, she becomes a respected völva priestess trained in the magic arts of seiðr and healing. Determined to protect her shattered heart, Edda hides behind the fearsome painted masks worn by priestesses in ritual.

Forced to wed to secure an alliance, Edda knows that laying with her husband will cost her everything she loves—her magic, healing abilities, and connection to the gods. She can never surrender her calling as völva for any man. Can she convince her husband to forgo the intimacies of marriage for one of convenience? Or will she fall prey to the attentions of the renowned seducer?

Tormented by the broken bond with his twin brother, Ivvár Eriksson has forgone the path mapped for him. He refuses to take a wife or find happiness while his twin suffers under a mysterious shroud of darkness. Instead, Ivvár has drowned his sorrows in ale and shallow affairs. After a foolish mistake that dishonored his family, Ivvár must answer for his crime. The notorious skirt-chaser is sentenced to wed a furious, unwilling bride.

Seeing a chance to reclaim his life, Ivvár vows to win over his prickly wife, honor his mentor, and fulfill his duty to the clan. But when the newlyweds arrive in Gottland, Ivvár finds his mentor’s legacy in shambles, his new wife hides behind her masks and refuses to consummate the marriage, and the bond with his twin further erodes. Somehow, he must fix the wreckage of his mistakes to salvage his honor. But how will he claim the heart of his bewitching bride?
