Blurb:
Aricela trusts no one.
At seventeen, she learned that promises are nothing more
than lies, honored only by the weak or naïve. And Aricela is no longer either.
After Narcos destroyed her innocence, they took her life,
but Aricela escaped death with a new purpose. As Valkyrie, she is charged to
take the souls of fallen warriors and athletes to Valhalla to await the final
battle. But souls need to trust her before they’ll follow, and Aricela has no
trust to give.
When collecting failures, instead of souls, draws the
attention of the Norns, they give Aricela an ultimatum. If she can’t collect,
she’ll be stripped of her powers and sent to Hel.
But when she meets Chase, everything changes.
Forced to face the myths of her past, Aricela will also have
to decide the fate of her future.

My Review:
Aricela Topaz is seventeen years old and a Valkyrie which
means her job is to take souls to Valhalla to await their final battle. Aricela
likes to go in right before the tragic accident happens get her names and take
her souls to Valhalla. She’s not like others who likes to go in hang around
with her souls you know get to know them so they will trust her which makes her
job easier when it comes time for them to follow her to Valhalla.
With the souls not knowing her or trusting her; Aricela has
lost quite a few souls in the past; no one following her to Valhalla. Now she
has the eyes of the Norns on her. If she doesn’t get her act together she is
going to be in big trouble with the Norns and I really don’t think that is
something Aricela really wants.
When Aricela is sent on her next job she is sent in earlier
than she likes where she has lots of time to get to know a couple of guys Chase
Adymn and Kai Cipriano and becomes to like very much especially Chase. This
could be the hardest job Aricela has ever had to do with getting to know
everyone and then learning who the souls were that she has to help cross over.
I have enjoyed reading and following along with Aricela on
her journey of collecting souls and also being with her when she met Chase and
Kai and watching their relationships grow and watching Aricela open up and
start letting other people in after all that she has suffered. I would like to
know what Aricela’s life will be like now after she has met Chase and Kai.
Where will she go now? What is in store for Chase and Kai? What will their
lives be like? I can’t wait to see what Raye has in store for Aricela, Chase
and Kai in the future. I can’t wait to read more of their world.
If you have not read Splintered Souls then let me suggest
that you do. I just know you will love it as much as I did.
