Review
I love Viking romances but don’t read them often, so I was thrilled to snag a copy of Virginie Marconato’s newest book. It’s book one in the Noble Norseman series, and man, I don’t think I’ve ever read a Viking book with such an honorable, decent hero. Although Wolf buys his heroine, Merewen, at a slave market, he’s not a pillaging brute. He ends up saving her from what was sure to be a lifetime of abuse. Wolf and Merewen were great together. They’ve both experienced pain and trauma, and though miscommunication and self-doubt often divided them, their desire and obvious need for each other kept pulling them back together.
For readers who love hot Viking romance with a strong heroine and honorable hero, Taming the Wolf is for you.
