Book Blurb
What if you have to choose?
Book 2 of Eirik Trilogy continues the story of a god and a Mortal girl.
Eirik wants nothing more than to show Celestia—the Witch who pulled him out of the darkness—that his feelings for her are real, but his parents expect him to avenge a wrong done to his family. To make matters worse, Celestia is moving on and is already dating another guy. Then Eirik discovers she is the key to accomplishing his goals. Caught between love and duty, Eirik will do whatever it takes, including getting up close and personal with Celestia, to get his way.
Celestia is convinced she is drawn to Eirik because of the bond created by the dragon's kiss, so she pushes him away. But when he comes to her for help, she is once again thrust into his world, where things are never what they seem.
From Earth to the realms of the gods, betrayal follows them and help comes from unexpected sources. But when the time comes for Eirik to choose, will he fulfill his duty or follow his heart? Everything rests on his shoulders as the wrong choice may lead to Celestia's worst fear—the rise of the Harbinger of Death.

Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala
Eirik is
searching for his grandmother and his long lost sister. He flies everyday looking for signs and
scents of his grandmother. He knows she
is the key to finding his sister.
However others have invaded his mother’s castle determined to win his
favor. He is expected to chose a bride
and for allainces. He battles with them
all showing his skills and prowess but is ready for them to leave. His attitude shows it as he spars with his
mother’s fighters.
His parents
take things into their own hands sending Echo to fetch Celestia. Eirik is trying to leave her be knowing he
causes her pain. Celestia is trying to
move on herself. She even goes on a date
with someone else. Echo appears
escorting her to Eirik. She comes face
to face with him and her feelings rush back.
So does Eirik’s. He decides he
isn’t letting her go a second time especially after he found out his
grandmother bit her.
They plan to
work together to find his sister and his grandmother. However witches are being murdered and her
mentor disappears. The orphans are on
the move. Eirik and the Grimnirs make a
plan to go after the orphans by entering another realm.
Eirik has to
make some difficult decisions protecting those he loves. Celestia sacrifices a lot to save Eirik’s
sister. However things aren’t as they
seem and Eirik has to draw on his powers and strength to save her.
I love this
series. I enjoyed reading about Raine
and Torin. I also loved Echo and Cora’s
story. So I was excited to read Eirik’s
story. I loved how Eirik and Celestia
met. She is a great character. She is independent and gives Eirik a run for
his money. She doesn’t put up with his
cocky attitude. Eirik loves that about
her. They also work well together in
this book. The beginning has them
separated from each other but the Goddess brings them together. They fight their feelings at first but accept
it for what it truly is.
The author
sends them both on a wild goose chase throughout the story. The reader has to witness every decision and
guesses they both make. Eirik is torn
about his grandmother at first. He wants
to think she is salvageable.
Celestia,
unfortunately, knows her mother is not.
You get a glimpse of her mother with a bit of the backstory
revealed. Celestia confronts her mother
and learns a bit of the secrets her mother has kept. She came across as completely crazy, raving
about her daughter being the harbinger of death.
This story
was full of twists and turns. You
weren’t sure who Eirik and Celestia should trust. It was a great story and addition to the
series. I can’t wait to see what these
two do next. I give it a 5 out of 5.
