This book was provided to me by Jianne Carlo and CBLS Promotions in exchange for an honest review of Vengeance Hammer. My interest was instantly piqued by the gorgeous cover of this book and the description. What woman doesn't love a gorgeous Viking?The book starts out in the hall of Lathairn Castle. Dráddr has to marry the daughter of his enemy to claim it. He wanted to take the life of Arnfinn (his enemy) as well and have his vengeance, but his wife has already poisoned him and herself before his arrival. Arnfinn is dead, and his wife is close to it.Determined to dislike the daughter of his enemy, he is surprised to see that she cannot speak. It's obvious Dráddr has a big heart, as well as a sexy body! Instead of being cruel, he is kind to this woman that can't speak but can hear.They are to marry that night, and he's faced with the awful task of telling her that the marriage has to be consumed with witnesses. Initially he's worried that he might not rise to the occasion, but that worry is soon put to rest when he gets his first "real" look at the woman that he's to marry. He's struck nearly speechless himself at the sight. I'm going to stop right here because I don't want to spoil this delicious read!I have to say that I found this book captivating! I loved everything about it, from the cover all the way through to the end. Jianne Carlo is definitely an author that knows how to create a decadent romance. The plot flowed well from start to finish, the characters likeable and fun to read. And Dráddr..... That sexy Viking is gorgeous, both inside and out! It's enough to make you wish you had a Viking of your own. I enjoyed the book so much that I'm going to have to get the first and second books now.I definitely rate this book five out of five! Once you read it, you'll see why.Paranormal Romance Author Rose Wynters
