Grandma Bekka, Delaney Kullerton's adorable 80-something grandmother, sits in the office of a carefully vetted high-class male escort service, flipping through glossy pages of their explicit, full-color catalog to select the prime candidate to fulfill her granddaughter's lifelong Viking fantasies. At least that's what Delaney assumes when a gorgeous, half-naked man appears on her doorstep, dressed in full Viking regalia, including horned Brunhilda helmet, sword and shield. In broken English, he tells Delaney he's Varik the Bold...and he wants to play. Tired of being a rule-following goody-two-shoes, she considers taking the big blonde muscled hunk of goodness up on his tempting offer. Why shouldn't she? Especially after Delaney's cheating, arrogant, condescending English professor husband blindsides her, leaving her for one of his perky graduate students--on Delaney's Valentine's Day birthday, no less. It's clear her beloved grandmother's estate is following Bekka's instructions, ensuring Delaney won't be alone and grieving on her birthday. Obviously, Varik the Bold is her grandmother's final parting gift. Right? A major misunderstanding, a dog-instigated chocolate disaster, and Odin's magic heartwish ring have Delaney packing her bags and moving across the country from Chicago to a small coastal town in Oregon to escape her mortification. The Viking's Heartwish is book 1 of the Heartwishes series. This full-length contemporary romance novel is full of warmth and humor--with a very special touch of magic. It's inspired by the author's previously published novelette, Caroline's Christmas Viking. While all Heartwishes books are part of a standalone series, you'll enjoy them more if you read them in order. These are small town romances with happily-ever-afters, and no cliffhangers.
