Who would have thought I’d need to die to really come into my own? But with my growing valkyrie powers and the scorching hot Norse gods who resurrected me by my side, I’ve never felt more alive. If only I could take a moment to enjoy my new home in Asgard. Unfortunately, our recent triumph has enraged a power-hungry giant who wants to see me dead all over again, along with everyone and everything … everything I care about. And then there’s our newly returned leader… Odin has turned out to be as single-minded as he is single-eyed, and I can’t shake the feeling that there’s more to this situation than he’s letting on.
My four gods and I will have to depend on each other if we’re going to find our way through this mess, even if opening my heart that much to anyone terrifies me. I’ve come this far. No way am I backing down now.
I’m Aria Watson, and I’ll be no one’s pawn.
Their Dark Valkyrie is a medium-burn reverse harem urban fantasy series. This action-packed, heart-wrenching ride gives you a kickass heroine, four irresistible gods, and Norse mythology like you’ve never seen it before.

I thought this one improved from book 3, earning a 4-4.5 stars from me. Like a lot of the other reviews, definitely wanted to reach into the book and hit Odin upside his head, or his good eye haha. He was making things way more difficult than it had to be and he just needed to get over it to help keep the worlds together, think about others besides who held him in captivity all these years. Surt’s army keeps growing and the Gods and their allies come together to put a major roadblock in there plans, but based on the cliffhanger at the end of book 3, it’s not over yet. In this book we get to see more relationships mend and more developments in the romance department (not a lot, still a medium burn series in my opinion). The steamy scenes that were in here were very good (looooved the twin moment – sorry spoiler, only one I promise haha). I loved how Aria helped Baldur the most in this story, along with Loki and Hod. Thor didnt need much helping, but her being constant with him and his rock was good. I loved the development with the raven and I think I saw she might have gotten her own short story somewhere, gonna have to go look for it! I liked the resolution with Odin and everyone, still have a lot to go for everyone to be ok with one another, but things are starting to be patched up and hopefully creating more cohesiveness before the major confrontation. One thing that I am not sure is going to be mentioned in book 4 is Baldur’s development and admission in book 3. I feel like that was a huge issue and then we forgot about it. Guess we shall see if its touched upon in the 4th and final book.
Narration was awesome in this one, would have given a 5 stars for it. I could feel the emotion from the characters, both did a great job getting into the heads of the characters and making them come to life. Especially with their frustration with Odin, Odin’s stubborn ways, and Aria’s admission of starting to love these gods. I wish I had book 4, have to wait tunic my subscription lets me download it in June gahhh. Can’t wait to finish up this awesome series
Another amazing read that I didn’t want to put down. Aria and the guys are still battling Surt and other bad memories from their past. Once I started reading this series it makes me want too battle along side them. Truly an amazing read and I can’t wait too read what happens next.
I am loving this series! Ari and her gods saved Odin, so now what? Now, they have to save the realms from Surt and his army. In between saving the Allfather and saving the realms, Ari has little time to appreciate her yummy men (but she does make some time with all of them in some steamy, sexy scenes ).
Next book please!
