Reclaiming His Viking Queen by Lucy MorrisMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Just a tad over-hyped in my honest opinion. However, since I've never read this author before, I can't say if the hype is true or merely good marketing!
A typical 'hate-to-passionate love' romance with a setting during the ancient Viking era.
The descriptions are excellent, the interactions with the characters other than the main characters are pretty interesting, and I love Skadis' daughter, Astra.
Now the main male character, Agnar, has had many names - Usurper, Warlord, Wolf Slayer, and with names like these, you wouldn't think he would turn into a semispineless man acting like a little boy, but to my eyes, he does. He just wants to be loved and understood. Yikes. It was just a little too obvious.
The constant inner dialoguing got to me, too. I have been away from the obvious lusty romance for quite a while and thought I would make my re-entry with this...
Well, there you go, a semi-typical haters-to-lovers romance.

SUMMARY: "A royal, enemies to lovers, spicy Viking romance.
He will have his queen…
For better or worse!
Viking Agnar has had many names: Usurper. Warlord. Wolf Slayer. Still, there’s one role he’s hell-bent on claiming—Skadi Friggsdottir’s husband! Rejected by Skadi years ago, he’ll be denied no longer. Storming her hall is easy. Taming his warrior queen will be much harder…
Young Skadi chose survival by marrying another over honoring her promise to Agnar. Now, believing Agnar has killed her husband, she’ll surrender her hand but never submit! Yet behind Agnar’s fury lies a man deeply wronged…one she can’t help but want. Is her enemy husband her doom, or her greatest desire?
