I read the 1 and 2 star reviews before I purchased this book and I was a bit hesitant to buy it because the talk of there being no "Happy Ever After". However, reading other reviews there seemed to be an actual storyline and memorable characters, so I thought I'd give it a try. It's a story with Vikings, so you know It'll have a savage storyline. The characters in the story actually have character. I could understand Cherine's feelings of awe and repulsion for Rolf. I could understand Erik's internal struggle with being loyal to Rolf and his wanting to start anew and bury "Erik the Axe". I couldn't understand Rolf because he is such a screwed up person! Anyway, there is a romance in there and I was glad that it did occur, and if you think about it, it's why the story happened the way it did. Now about the (lack of a) HEA, I though it was alright, Cherine had her chance of happiness and she was still surrounded with people who loved and cared for her. At the end of the story she wasn't just a peasant but now a free woman who had been fought for, loved and cherished.
