They face a challenge in there right to Mate with Muriel to find out what happens next please read this awesome book.
Overall this book meet my expectations.
I voluntarily read advance reader copy of this book and my opinion are my own.

I love Lee Savino’s Berserkers and their world. She has based them just enough in the actual histories of the time period as well as legends of the Vikings that you can get an immersive feeling in the world.

Muriel is one of the twin sisters of Sabine and Brenna. When Sabine got taken, the Berserkers took her and her sickly twin, Fleur, as both hostages to Sabine’s good behavior and as potential brides to other Berserkers, since they are also spaewives.

Eventually, the Alphas of both the Highland and Lowlands packs decide that the easiest and fairest way for Muriel to be mated is to have a huge competition. Think of it like the US and Canada having a competition except that instead of winning a medal, the winner gets Muriel. Muriel isn’t all that happy about it, because she isn’t getting to choose her own mate or mates. In fact, she has to take the winner to mate, even if the winner is the nastiest, evilest, most disgusting Berserker ever.

I’m not going to give away the name of the winner because that would be some spoilers, and no one wants that.

I will say that Muriel’s story is my favorite out of all the sisters. I’m not sure why, there’s just something about her that calls to me. I do like the winner of the games and I do like how things pan out at the end of the story. I can’t wait to see how the sisters’ stories will interconnect with the stories from the Berserker Brides.

This book had a decent premise but never followed up. It became really bad bdsm. There was little plot, bad dialog and boring characters. The heroine couldn’t make up her mind who she wanted to be constantly flip flopping yes, I want to be strong…no i can’t! UGH. The heroes were also flip flopping around. Yes I am a big bad shifter…no wait I’m a wimp! No, we’re stupid! I’m sure not gonna read any more from this series.

This one may be my favorite in the series.
Standalone with no cliffhangers.
She may be falling in love with one of the Berserkers but she has just found out that she is to be the prize at the end of a fight for her hand.
But can she bond with the winner or is she not able to mate with them at all?
Lots of emotion and lack of self worth to be worked out in this one.
Loved the final battle.
I listened to this on Audible.

Muriel visits Sabine, unaware that she is the prize to be won at a competition. Wulfgar wins, unaware of her relationship with Fergus.

I received a copy of the book from the author via bookfunnel, and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Muriel is the prize in this game. The Berserker Games are where warriors fight to win a mate. These games are fearsome and ruthless. I enjoyed reading this book. I loved the storyline and plot. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Highly entertaining, sexy, thrilling, action packed romantic adventure filled with danger, excitement, passion and heart pounding twists….. was so riveted that I could not put this journey down was so into the story I lost all track of time and place. Kinda starts out slow, but picks up very quickly.

Hot AF ménage shifter story. This was my first Beserker read but I’ll be going back to the others because I liked this one so much.

Muriel & her sisters have been taken by the Beserkers, a group of warriors cursed with 3 selves, the man, the wolf & the beast. If the beast overtakes them it will make them wild with fury & drive them mad. Muriel & her sisters are special woman with a magic that can tame the beast. Muriel hasn’t come into her magic yet & is not sure if she can. All the beserkers want the sisters and 2 already have been mate bonded so it puts Muriel in the forefront. The Alphas of the packs decide to hold a contest & Muriel is the prize. Last warrior standing gets her as their mate.

This story pulled me in as I learned who the winner was & how the relationship grew. There were hot, sexy times with some lite BDSM but also tender romantic times as they navigate their way but also stay alert for the danger that Muriel, the coveted prize would be stolen.

I enjoy my steamy reads with a romantic side & this one fit the bill in spades.

Taken and Claimed

What can I say about Given to the Beserker other than this book was hot. The characters were interesting, diverse, sneaky, willing to do what is necessary to get and keep their mate.

when I first started reading the book I thought the story was a little slow and I wasn’t for sure which direction than other was going to take the characters. As I continue to read the book definitely got better the characters started to evolve and the storyline still kept me interested enough to continue to read.

I definitely want to give the author kudos for the intimate scenes in this book and she kept them tasteful, masterful, and brief maybe that’s not the right word but they were not drawn out to the point that you got sick of reading about them and for me that’s a big win. I will say even if you are not into the menage and the play you still might squirm in your seat or bed when you’re reading those scenes.
