Publisher's Summary
In order to save my father, I have to marry the God of Death.
When twenty-four-year old Hanna Heikkinen's estranged father dies, she reluctantly makes the trip to Northern Finland for his funeral. Being in the enchanting land of ice and snow feels miles away from Hanna's busy life back in Los Angeles, especially under the complicated circumstances.
But when Hanna discovers that her father's body is missing, that's when things really get weird. A mysterious man, Rasmus, tells Hanna the truth: her father was a powerful shaman who went into Tuonela, the Realm of the Dead, in order to barter for more life, and has been held captive by Tuoni, the God of Death. The only way her father can be freed is if she travels with Rasmus into the mythical underworld to rescue him.
Willing to do anything to have a second chance with her father, Hanna accompanies Rasmus into the dark and bloody realm, traveling via the River of Shadows, stalked by dangerous creatures, monsters, and the living dead, until they finally come into the haunted kingdom ruled by Death and his family.
Only for her to be captured and held prisoner by the God of Death himself.
Contains mature themes.

Unique and awesome!!
OMG! This really is awesome! Such a great storyline paired with the most amazing narration makes for one of my all time favourite listens. Ends on a cliffhanger though so seriously hoping Book 2 in series is ready to go. Cannot recommend highly enough.

A fun and surprising spicy fantasy
I really enjoyed this kooky and sexy fantasy novel. The world building was great and the characters were hilarious. A twist on the usual plus the protagonist is a very modern young woman from California so it adds a different spin on things. I’ll definitely reach for the second book as it ends on a cliff hanger.
