"The blood of a princess
… and the heart of valkyrie
Sigrid may be the last surviving royal of Vanaheim, but she’s more warrior than princess. Her world is collapsing under the onslaught of their enemies, who are ripping apart Sigrid’s home and everyone in it. Even astride Sleipnir, her legendary eight-legged horse, Sigrid can’t fight the darkness unleashed by the Night Elves. And at any moment, the god Loki could unleash chaos upon them all …
With the fate of nine worlds perilously close to breaking, there’s only one way to restore the balance: by restoring Vanaheim’s gods-given magic. But doing so means undertaking a journey that’s not only treacherous but nearly impossible.
With her beloved Mariam by her side, Sigrid must find a way to unite all the worlds … including Helheim.
It will take courage.
It will take strength.
Most of all, it will tempt Sigrid to draw upon the thing she fears most: the darkness inside her own heart. Because the only way to take on a god—and win—will be to raise an army from the most fearsome corners of the nine worlds."

Ruby, eine durchorganisierte Minimalistin, und ihr treuer Hund Calvin könnten ebenfalls frischen Wind auf ihrem Kanal gebrauchen, da es trotz über einer Million Follower auch bei ihnen nicht rund läuft.

"Take one ex-girlfriend, a wilderness adventure, and only one cabin. What could possibly go wrong in this fun second chance lesbian romance?
Avery is finally going on the winter excursion to the Yukon she's been planning all year. Dog sledding, ice fishing, the Northern Lights . . . It's going to be amazing! Then her boyfriend dumps her the night before the trip. Worse, she gets paired up with the only other solo traveler in the group: Summer, her ex-girlfriend from high school.
Unlike Avery, who has a plan for everything, Summer lives a nomadic life—free, spontaneous, with no time for relationships. There would be no point in rekindling what they had—not when the last time ended so badly.
Stuck in a tiny yurt together and forced to partner up for activities, Avery and Summer must find a way to get along. But what if, amidst all that ice and snow, they also discover a flame that was never extinguished?

"A camper van, a camera, and the open road are all laid-back Carol Lavoie wants in life—and she's using her career as a social media video creator to fund her adventures. The problem is, if she can't work out how to get more followers soon, she'll have to give it all away.
Minimalist vlogger Ruby Hayashi has over a million followers who watch her meticulously edited takes on cooking, van living, and her cute rescue dog. She exists in a world of perfection that is getting boring and badly needs an injection of fresh energy.
When Coral and Ruby team up for a road trip to boost their audiences, it's a clash of opposites in what could be the change they both need. As they hit the Oregon coast, what they don't count on is how their enthralled followers start rooting for their favorite lesbians to get together.
Could faking a relationship for the cameras be the key to going viral and boosting their careers? But even if they make peace with lying to their fans, for how long will their hearts be able to tell the difference between fake flirtation and real love?
Contains mature themes."
"Being both a valkyrie and a princess isn’t turning out quite the way Sigrid imagined. The other valkyries still treat her like a stable hand. Her relationship with Mariam is less “long-distance” and more “worlds apart.” And lately, she’s been wondering if Sleipnir, her new horse, isn’t making her a little bit … well, evil.
But Sigrid’s first official valkyrie mission sends ripples through the Nine Worlds.
She’s attracted the wrath of not only the Night Elves but their sinister king, who wants nothing more than to bring darkness down on everyone. Worse yet, Loki might just be interfering with the balance of light and dark …
When war threatens the shores of Vanaheim and her friends are in danger of being exiled, Sigrid makes a deal with the new queen. She will ride Sleipnir against their enemies and use his might to defeat them, even as he pulls her closer to that line between good and evil.
What she becomes will either save everyone … or unleash disaster upon them all."

"Paste Magazine Pick for Best New Fantasy Books of July 2022
From the time she was born, Sigrid has only ever been ordinary. Being paired at birth with a plain horse—instead of the powerful winged mare of a valkyrie—meant there would be no warrior path for her. No riding the skies, no glory among the nine worlds. Just the simple, unremarkable life of a stable hand.
Everything changes when a terrible enemy ambushes Vanaheim and Sigrid sees a vision of herself atop a mythical stallion, leading the valkyries into a harrowing battle. Finally, she can grab her future with her own two hands and become the hero of her own story … if she dares.
But her destiny is tied up with Mariam, a fallen valkyrie who’s allied herself with the very enemy Sigrid is trying to stop.
Now Sigrid has left ordinary behind as she begins a journey with the beautiful—if treacherous—valkyrie, each step bringing her closer to answers … and to awakened feelings for Mariam.
But the life Sigrid left behind is starting to look a lot like paradise … especially when her destiny lies in the one place no mortal should tread: the gates of Hel."
