FEATURED RELEASE
Predestined
The only thing preventing Valerian from becoming a valkyrie are the scales of his own heart.
After botching his first solo assignment, Valerian Frey is determined to prove he’s worthy of becoming a valkyrie. But his mission seems cursed from the moment Vespasien Kuromori sets foot in Corbeauvale. The new boy is infuriatingly charming, dangerously perceptive, and worst of all—he looks an awful lot like the raven-haired guy from Valerian’s cryptic visions. A guy he fears might be destined to be his soulmate.
But when the dark specter responsible for snuffing out his mortal life resurfaces in Corbeauvale, will Valerian be forced to choose between love, family, and everything he’s worked for? And when Norns are involved, do you even really have a choice?
Norse mythology and high school dance teams collide in this queer small-town Romantasy.
