A Fate Inked in Blood
From TikTok sensation and bestselling author of The Bridge Kingdom series comes an enthralling Norse-inspired fantasy romance, A Fate Inked in Blood, a perfect read for fans of Fourth Wing, Katee Robert, and Sarah J. Maas.
In the rugged, mystic lands of Skaland, shield maiden Freya is bound in a stifling, unwanted marriage, spending her days gutting fish and dreaming of an escape through the glimmer of blade and battle. Freya longs to become the warrior she feels destined to be, secretly harbouring desires of putting an end to her boorish husband's life.
When Freya's husband betrays her, she finds herself facing the ruthless jarl's son in a fight to the death. To survive, she must reveal her most closely guarded secret: a drop of a goddess's blood flows through her veins, granting her a unique magic capable of repelling any attack. This magic has been prophesied to unify the fractured nation of Skaland under a singular king—the one who controls the shield maiden's fate.
Convinced that he is the destined ruler of Skaland, the ambitious and power-hungry jarl binds Freya with a blood oath and orders his fiery son, Bjorn, to safeguard her from their enemies. As Freya is thrust into a world of relentless training and council with gods, she must master her burgeoning powers and endure trials fraught with peril and divinity.
Amidst the chaos, Freya's greatest challenge emerges in the form of her forbidden attraction to the very warrior who is supposed to protect her. Bjorn's charm and fierceness ignite a passion within Freya, threatening to derail her mission and the fate of all she vows to protect.
In A Fate Inked in Blood, Danielle L. Jensen intricately weaves a tale of courage, sacrifice, and forbidden love, set against the backdrop of Norse mythology. As Freya navigates treacherous paths and tests her limits, readers will be captivated by this gripping saga of strength and destiny. Will Freya resist her deepest desires to fulfil her prophesied fate, or will love lead to the ultimate betrayal?
The battle for Skaland's unity is more than a clash of swords; it's a clash of hearts, and Freya stands at its epicentre.
