When the fate of the world is at stake, loyalties will be tested . . . As one of Odin's Valkyries, Malin Krigare's greatest responsibility is to slay immortals and return them to the underworld. But when she unearths a secret that could unravel the balance of all she knows, Malin along with her best friend and her ex-girlfriend must decide where their loyalties lie. And if helping the blue-eyed boy Asher enact his revenge is worth the risk—to the world and her heart. Praise for Between the Blade and the Heart "[An] entertaining fantasy. . . .

It's fast-paced and stocked with action." —Publishers Weekly
