Mikael was a Viking warrior-fierce, loyal, and in love with the one woman he could never have. Promised in marriage to Esther, a wealthy merchant's daughter hiding a powerful secret, Mikael buried his true feelings for Toril, the Viking village chief's fierce and breathtaking only daughter. Trained as a warrior and destined to lead her people, Toril stood beside Mikael in battle, her heart aching with every shared glance, every unspoken word. But fate had cruel plans. When Esther bore Mikael's first child, a daughter named Freya, it was Toril's favorite goddess who inspired it. Yet heartbreak struck again when Freya was taken by Esther's sister, Dahlia, as part of a dark bargain. Toril alone witnessed the betrayal-and acted. Slaying the witch, she vanished with the child, raising Freya in secret, protecting her from the woman who dared call herself her mother. Now, as ancient secrets threaten to resurface and the line between love and loyalty blurs, Mikael will discover the truth: the woman he lost may be the only one who can save him-and the family he never truly knew.
