    Oh my Gods, I loved Inga, Gunnar, and Ull.  Inga is such a strong character, Gunnar is playful, fun, a bit of a bad-ass, and a randy flirt, the relationship between them is perfect! They are both very strong, extremely confident and their relationship is completely solid. I find it fantastic how they seem to have an even share of sex appeal. I love how Inga knows how to get Gunnar going and isn't afraid to use her sexual power with her winks and smirks. What a great mix of action, friendship, love, humor, suspense, and sexiness. I was amazed at how few pages it took to hook me into this series. I can't wait to read "Elsker" and the rest of the saga!

    This was a great read for me, I have always been interested in Norse mythology and it was woven into this romance so well. The paranormal aspect of this book is very believable. Kristia and Ull are adorable together, they argue over so much but but in the best way, and the sexual tension is fantastic!

    The characters in this story are amazing, they all mesh really well together and all of them give a real sense of who they are as individuals and not just as a character worked into the whole. Kristia is a wholesome small town girl. She is a sweet girl with a big heart, but her parents are stand offish, she was raised by her grandmother, but because of her small affliction, aka having visions, she is a social pariah. Her best friend from her childhood hometown in Oregon, is a huge part of making Kristia the character she is. Ull Myhr is one hunk of a man, but he's a Norse God, so he would have to be. He has a bit of a temper, but is held in check by his love for Kristia. The roommates are adorable and Ull's friends and housemates are too cute and instantly lovable. I really enjoyed how Thor, and the other deities are depicted in this, since the Avengers movies, I feel like he isn't looked at as he is depicted in Norse mythology.

    I can't wait to find out what happens next! The writing was really well done and flowed perfectly, the details were great, the characters are amazing, and the story line itself is new, original and great! Book two here I come!

    I really love this series, and I mean REALLY love it! The characters are amazing, they are all very complex on their own but brought together, with S.T. Bende's writing they make for a perfect cast of characters, I really hope that each book continues to bring me as many laughs, and surprises as they prequel "Tur", the first book in the series "Elsker" and now "Endre", I am SO excite to dive into the third book in the series "Tro"! S.T. Bende you have done it again, I love your writing and this is a series I will be reading again and again, it's just that good!
