Caught in an unraveling prophecy, the only way she can defeat the enemy is to take a mate. But first, she must work through heart-wrenching memories. What she doesn&#8217;t expect is navigating her rocky history alongside a man as broken as her. A Viking who offers not just solace but sparks fierce desire.<\/p>\n<p>Though determined to end his rival without becoming mated, Viking Rokar Sigdir begins thinking differently when Tess joins him on his quest and awakens feelings he thought long dormant. Yet with passion and a chance to start anew come dark flashbacks of losing his kin and the unimaginable pain it caused. A misery he fears repeating.<\/p>\n<p>Will Rokar and Tess be able to let their pasts go and work together to end their nemesis so they can share a future? Or are some things just too hard to overcome? Find out as they journey through time and turbulent memories on a fast-paced, otherworldly adventure that becomes not just a conquest of their enemy but of their grief-stricken souls.<\/p>\n<p><i>This book contains strong sexual content and is recommended for a mature audience.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25373 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/44832359-viking-s-conquest?from_search=true&amp;from_srp=true&amp;qid=D39rJ7u9pH&amp;rank=4\">Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25375 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4eog0FR\">Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/twinsieoftheday.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25390 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/twinsieoftheday.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/twinsieoftheday.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/twinsieoftheday.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/twinsieoftheday.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Review by Brandy<\/p>\n<p>I received this book for an honest review.<\/p>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"232.30666666666673\">\n<div data-canvas-width=\"606.3346666666665\">This is a good addition to this series, and really brings Tess&#8217;s character to life. I\u2019ve read a couple of the<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"619.2266666666665\">previous books and Tess came across as the flighty, carefree sister. As the previous books directly affect<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"512.3359999999999\">things in this book I would recommend not starting with this book if new to the series.<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"512.3359999999999\"><\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"610.3679999999997\">Both Tess and her man have been through a painful past, and neither is interested in being hurt again.<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"618.0826666666665\">Fate, however, has different plans and they must fight through their pain or everything is doomed. Tess<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"602.008\">has a big secret that\u2019s she\u2019s even kept from her sisters and it may ruin the future she\u2019s trying to save.<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"607.156\">Rokar can\u2019t escape the guilt over the death of his wife and child and has shut everyone out. Trouble is<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"621.2653333333333\">they have no idea how they are such a huge part of what is going on. When they finally figure it out it\u2019s a<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"611.1306666666666\">little bit of OMG! due to how their story ties a lot of things together from the entire series. This author<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"610.5586666666668\">really is very good at slowly unraveling the mystery of the truth without it feeling like it\u2019s a slow reveal.<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"606.0706666666666\"><\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"606.0706666666666\">I\u2019ve really enjoyed this series as there is a lot of Norse mythology woven into the story line along with<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"622.2186666666664\">Viking dragon shifters. This book is no exception, and if you haven\u2019t read any of the books you may get a<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"614.5626666666665\">bit confused as to where and when the characters are in different places as there is also time traveling.<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"598.752\">There are some major reveals in this book, so I wouldn&#8217;t start with this one if your new to the series.<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"180.00399999999996\">There is explicit adult content.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25376 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>SKY PURINGTON is the award-winning, 4-time RONE nominee, bestselling author of over seventy novels and novellas.
