My Review
When I first saw this title I was so curious. There are a lot of books with catching names, bu this one really jumped to my attention. So I joined the adventure to learn what was going on for a nun to join a Viking Warrior. Arranged marriage that was the reason and I find those kind of tropes quite interesting, since they can take different possibilities in terms of path.
Amée Évreaux was an amazing character. I could understand her in many ways, and that made it enjoyable to follow her journey. Jorund Jötunnson is a norseman with a heart of gold. Yes, he is and we get to discover that with Amée, while their relationship grows.
There is romance, there is drama, there is a sweet tone to the story too that I liked. And I love the cultural aspect. That’s always something I look forward to see and figure out when I read about the past and how societies worked back then.
Overall, it was amazing and I love Amée specially she was the kind of person I would love to have as a friend.
