I smirk over the rim of my glass as I sip. “You’re not easily deterred, are you?”
“I mean, you can’t dangle a juicy tidbit like that and expect me not to bite.” Her smile abruptly collapses, and her cheeks go tomato-red. “Can we pretend I didn’t just say that?”
Laughter pours out of me unchecked, throwing my head back with the force of it. “Not a chance – except for the ‘tidbit’ part. My ego would have preferred a more generous descriptor.”

Like most Vikings, the hero of LEGACY OF THE RUNES uses a cloak pin to keep his garment closed - perhaps not one quite as fancy as these though!

A bond that even time cannot break!

The reviews are in! Bonded To the Boo Hag is “utterly bingeable,” and that the spice is “yummy and elegant while still perfectly steamy.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Photo of man and woman about to kiss. Text reads:

All the oxygen evacuates my lungs, and the universe narrows down to this: me, on a sidewalk, craning my neck, filling my field of vision with this man’s face. Watching his pupils dilate until they overtake his green irises.

Woman with glasses, a curly brown hair in a ponytail, and bangs looks at the camera with a slight smile. Text on image reads:

After a second to take in the casually sexy way he leans against the bar, I flash him a grin I hope looks actually flirty, and not like my usual, stilted attempts at flirting.
