Synopsis:
In a bleak
future built on virtual reality, Ginn is a romantic who yearns for something
real. She designs environments for people who play at being Vikings. But when
her project goes awry, she’s stranded in the actual 10th century, on a
storybook farm in Viking Iceland.
Heirik is the young leader of his family, honored by the men and women who live
on his land. But he is feared and isolated because of a terrible curse. Ginn
and Heirik are two people who never thought they would find a home in someone
else’s heart.
When forces rise against them to keep them apart, Ginn is called on to
decide—will she give up the brutal and beautiful reality of the past? Or will
she have the courage to traverse time and become more of a Viking than she ever
imagined?
I got this book from the author, free of cost, in exchange of an honest review from my side.
Firstly I would like to thank the author for giving me this opportunity of reading and reviewing this book and I would also like to thank Lovers of Paranormal Group of Goodreads for giving me this copy under their Read to Review theme.
Well, to be honest this book is really awesome and I'm not exaggerating guys!!!
There is romance, passion, trust, struggle and a beautiful historic description of the plot that won my heart. I liked the story line very much and as this is my second Time-Travel novel that I read I would like to confess that this book totally changed my view point about this genre and from now on I'll be reading novels based on this genre.
Coming to the characters, well I couldn't express in words the excellence of their creation. I loved each and every character even the negative ones too because they played a major part of this story and made the read thrilling and entertaining.
The dialogues were crisp and straight forward and there wasn't any excessive bragging regarding a single scene or event. Moreover the events flowed smoothly from one to other without any big gaps that often makes the read meaningless and confusing.
The writing style of the author is fabulous and this is the first novel I read which is written by the author and I became a huge fan of her skill of writing. The detailed descriptions made me visualize the scenes while reading and that added to my excitement.
Over all a great read that I would definitely recommend to others and hope that you guys will love it too. Enjoy !!!
