The Jarl's Winter Wife - Paperback

by Petra Abromov (Author)

His wife was supposed to be dead.

Leif Ragnvaldsson buried his heart the day Astrid vanished. Years later, she returns through a winter storm half frozen, carrying his ring and a warning that blood is moving toward his family's hall.

Astrid did not come back for forgiveness. She came back because the danger that stole her marriage has found the Ragnvaldssons again. She has survived captivity, false messages, and men who turned vows into weapons. Now she must face the husband who mourned her, the hall that doubts her, and the enemy who wants her silenced before she can speak the truth.

Leif wants answers more than mercy. Astrid wants safety more than tenderness. Neither wants to admit the marriage they thought broken still has power over them.

When snow closes the roads and enemies gather in the dark, Leif and Astrid are trapped inside the same hall, the same memories, and the same vow that once bound them. To survive the winter, they must uncover who separated them, why Astrid was kept away, and whether a love buried under grief can rise again as something stronger.

In the North, marriage is not a ceremony. It is a weapon.

The Jarl's Winter Wife is a dark Viking historical romance featuring second chance marriage, a protective warrior husband, a wife believed dead, forced proximity, winter danger, and a hard won happily ever after.
