God’s Hammer (Hakon’s Saga Book 1)by Eric Schumacher

History and legend combine in the gripping tale of Hakon Haraldsson, a Christian boy who once fought for the High Seat of a Viking realm.

It is 935 A.D. and the North is in turmoil. King Harald Fairhair has died, leaving the High Seat of the realm to his murderous son, Erik Bloodaxe. To solidify his claim, Erik ruthlessly disposes of all claimants to his throne, save one: his youngest brother Hakon.

Erik’s surviving enemies send a ship to Wessex, where the Christian King Athelstan is raising Hakon. Unable to avoid his fate, he returns to the Viking North to face his brother and claim his birthright, only to discover that victory will demand sacrifices beyond his wildest nightmares.

I was swept up in the action and enthralled by the descriptions of Hakon’s struggle. -Roundtable Reviews-
I highly recommend this historical fiction novel, both for its entertaining story and historical information. -Historical Fiction Review-

Brilliance (The Brilliance Trilogy Book 1)by Marcus Sakey

In Wyoming, a little girl reads people’s darkest secrets by the way they fold their arms. In New York, a man sensing patterns in the stock market racks up $300 billion. In Chicago, a woman can go invisible by being where no one is looking. They’re called “brilliants,” and since 1980, one percent of people have been born this way. Nick Cooper is among them; a federal agent, Cooper has gifts rendering him exceptional at hunting terrorists. His latest target may be the most dangerous man alive, a brilliant drenched in blood and intent on provoking civil war. But to catch him, Cooper will have to violate everything he believes in–and betray his own kind.

From Marcus Sakey, “a modern master of suspense” (Chicago Sun-Times) and “one of our best storytellers” (Michael Connelly), comes an adventure that’s at once breakneck thriller and shrewd social commentary; a gripping tale of a world fundamentally different and yet horrifyingly similar to our own, where being born gifted can be a terrible curse.

A hot summer fling rocked his world…and changed hers forever.

Shayne isn’t sowing his wild oats–being a Boot Knocker is his life. He loves helping the women who come to The Boot Knockers Ranch, and the Montana mountains fulfill his passion for the outdoors. But there’s an opening in Texas and they want him to make the move. Then a sexy little temptress from his past shows up and leaves him spinning like a twister on the plains.

Jolie thought the memories of that scorching hot cowboy were just a passing storm cloud in her sunny life. Then she saw those two little lines on a stick. With the father of her child off being a Boot Knocker with God knows how many women, Jolie focuses on her child and her future–and the man who wants to marry her. But it’s only right to let Shayne know about his child, right?

Shayne’s struggled to get Jolie out of his system, but now that he’s seen a picture of his baby girl, guilt floods in. He left them high and dry, even if he knew nothing about his daughter. And now Jolie is asking him to sign his parental rights over to a man who wants to take care of them both. Does Shayne let all of it go and take the easy road? Maybe creating a family with the woman he dreams about IS the easy road.
