In the late 21st Century, technology offered dying soldiers an alternative: Project ATOM gave them the power to cheat death. All that they were, heart and soul, placed into military bodies of synthetic flesh, titanium and hyper advanced circuitry. They possessed super-strength, perfect cosmetics and deadly machine speed and accuracy, all tirelessly driven by a nuclear core. They became the perfect soldiers; unstoppable and immortal. They were the 21st century's new supermen. They were the Brigade. Labelled as 'Nukes', they were the most powerful fighting force in the world. Then the unthinkable: A weapon that could bring them down. Major Cassandra Koehl is 'Valkyrie', a synthetic super-soldier. As deadly as she is beautiful, she is tasked with a desperate mission: find this weapon before it can be used again! In a desperate race against time, her discovery rocks the brigade, for this weapon is far deadlier and insidious than imagined, and on an unstoppable countdown!
Third Law of the Valkyrie… Don’t Trigger Ragnarök. Too late. No one could have warned me what the end of the universe would look like. Valkyries have come back from the dead. Their undead army blots out the sky with wings and fire. Leading the charge are the echoes of Ragnarök that have split at the seams, introducing a terrifying wave of glittering black matter that devours anything it touches. The first law of the Valkyrie told me not to love. The second law warned me to listen to the gods and their wisdom. The third is simply a result of breaking the first two, and now it’s too late. The gods think all is lost, but they have underestimated the power of love. The only question left is where does my heart belong… and do I have the strength to find out?

One fateful day, a virtually unexplored cave full of mist and a handful of tenth century coins propels her back in time. A time filled with fierce Viking warriors who take what they want. And they want Sky. Sky is captured into the arms of two mighty warriors, Rolf and Brandr, who are identical to the man who fills her fantasy world and a co-worker who is determined to have her fulfill all of his heated sexual desires. Sky is considered a Valkyrie, a gift of the Gods. When Sky dances, her sultry erotic moves make many a man burn with searing passion and desire. But they can't have her. Her two Viking warriors will allow no one, save themselves, access to her Valkyrie heat.

At first, he is curious—and captivated—though even as Bron melts Tyra’s icy reserve, he learns that defying the gods has its price. War rages between Tyra’s masters and their demon foe. Bron has no part in the conflict until Tyra is betrayed, and he must take a side. But some fires are too hot to bear, even for a dragon. If he means to save Tyra, he must sacrifice all.
