Curse of the Viking: Saga 1 in the Portal to Valhalla Series
What if one day you're a high school history teacher, and the next, you wake up in the year 1052 in a Norse settlement? Everyone calls you Tove and you're betrothed to the Viking King Ulrik. No one believes you came from the future and don't belong here. Even the hot Commander named Njord, doesn't believe you.
Sofia Jensen must find a way to navigate through this world so unlike her own, and try to convince Njord she is not Tove, and can't wed the King. She soon finds herself caught up in a 250-year-old curse, estranged from Njord, and realizes she's fallen in love with him. Her only way home is through the witch in the magic woods, so Sofia must take up the sword and become a fierce shield maiden or find herself the victim of King Ulrik's wrath.
Will Sofia and Njord's love stand the test of time? Will they be able to find a way out of the curse and away from the evil king? And will Sofia be able to cross the portal back to her world, without the love of her life?
This book will be available for purchase at the event.

Becca Kabelis
Note from Becca: I am no longer published through Clan Whelan Publishing, choosing to now publish myself as an indie author. If you wish to purchase my updated and latest editions, please order the books that do not carry the publisher's name at the top. Thank you! Growing up, Becca loved reading Stephen King, Dean Koontz and Anne Rice, paving the way for her affinity of the horror genre. She wrote her debut novel, Maiden of Belial many years ago. After recently discovering Paranormal Romance, she decided that Maiden of Belial was a perfect fit for that genre and has since completed two more books in the Ascent of the Witch Trilogy. When Becca isn’t writing, she enjoys reading, playing with her grandchildren, gardening and spending time with her husband, John.
