Ivar by Joanna Bell

Two young women vanish, time-traveling to the age of the Vikings.

Sophie Foster, a rookie cop, vows to find them.
I might be the junior investigator on the force, but I’m not letting two girls disappear without a trace. Alone, I search the quiet forests where they were last seen. As a single mom with a young daughter, this case means more to me than any other, but the trail has gone cold.
Tramping through the snow, I despair. My steps falter and I stumble. In a single, terrifying instant, I tumble through the darkness to another time, deep in the past.
I emerge in an old world, a rugged land, a brutal realm ruled by Vikings.
Ivar, their leader, stands even taller than his men. Powerfully built, with a gaze that could melt arctic frost, he makes my heart race with fear – and desire. His people say he’s the Jarl of Jarls. I say he’s as fierce as a lion. He rescues me from a vicious attack but claims me as his own. When I’m alone with him, his eyes seduce me. His touch leaves me helpless with need. More than anything, I want to belong to him.
But I can’t stay with Ivar no matter how strong his hold on me. I must return to my daughter. I wait for my chance to escape and race back to the modern world. Back to my child.
I never imagined that I was being followed. Not until it was too late.
Ivar, my six and a half-foot tall, Viking warrior, follows me back to the twenty-first century…
