    About this series

    It could be said that Terra Olson has achieved her dream of being an archeologist . . . if you were liberal with the exact details of her duty as Freya's chosen.

    Granted, she's hunting down magical treasures. Doing it at the behest of an eccentric curator and the goddess herself to prevent Freya's sacred belongings from falling into the wrong hands falls outside the job description she'd imagined.

    Add in preventing the devious Villon's organization from claiming the artifacts for themselves, and their efforts to silence her for what she knows, and "archaeologist" is a distant dream. When a new treasure is discovered, it becomes a race to stop Villon from claiming it while unlocking its secrets.

    On top of all that, the man who lost Terra's good graces when he attempted to kill her has returned.

    Her former idol is the one leading Villon's mercenaries in their attempt to recover the artifact.

    He wishes to right his mistake, and Terra wishes to return the favor. Only one of them can walk away from the inevitable conflict.

    How will the Chosen of Freya fare against someone who has stolen the goddess' power for himself?

      Terra Olson is an archeologist in the making. When she gets an opportunity to work with one of her idols at a dig that may contain artifacts linked with Norse mythology, she jumps at the offer. What more could she ask for? Probably to not be betrayed by that very same idol. She'd expected the job to be a killer . . . just not in the buried-alive-and-left-to-die-alone way. How could she have seen that coming? But she is not alone. She finds one of the treasures of the goddess Freya and learns that she is no myth. The artifacts they were searching for become her salvation, and the start of her new life. Through her findings, Terra learns about the connection between Asgard and Earth . . . and gets caught up in a battle that could change history. Her onetime mentor thought she was a nobody, easily left for dead with no one who would care. Now Terra has become the chosen of Freya and she wields both her majesty and her wrath in the fight for the future of magic. Can Terra survive by ascending to become more than human? Or will she get caught in the crossfire between those who wish to protect the hidden realm and those who wish to expose magic for malicious purposes?
