BLOG TOUR~Valkyrie Rising by Ingrid Paulson

Hey everyone! 
The Ingrid Paulson "Valkyrie Rising" Blog Tour has started!
Follow along with the fun from Oct. 9 - 20 and enter for a chance to win a signed copy of the book.

Synopsis via Goodreads:
Nothing ever happens in Norway. But at least Ellie knows what to expect when she visits her grandmother: a tranquil fishing village and long, slow summer days. And maybe she’ll finally get out from under the shadow of her way-too-perfect big brother, Graham, while she’s there. 

What Ellie doesn’t anticipate is Graham’s infuriating best friend, Tuck, tagging along for the trip. Nor did she imagine boys going missing amid rumors of impossible kidnappings. Least of all does she expect something powerful and ancient to awaken in her and that strange whispers would urge Ellie to claim her place among mythological warriors. Instead of peace and quiet, there’s uddenly a lot for a girl from L.A. to handle on a summer sojourn in Norway! And when Graham vanishes, it’s up to Ellie—and the ever-sarcastic, if undeniably alluring Tuck—to uncover the truth about all the disappearances and thwart the nefarious plan behind them.

Deadly legends, hidden identities, and tentative romance swirl together in one girl’s unexpectedly-epic coming of age.

She has always loved books and writing short stories, but was surprised one day to discover the story she was working on wasn't so short any more. VALKYRIE RISING is Ingrid's first novel.


Ingrid's grandmother might actually be a Valkyrie; she's still waiting for her to come clean.

  2. I don't think I could pick a specific place. I'd have to hit up every place possible. I don't get out much...

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway! I'm trying to sign up via email but it won't send me the confirmation link for some reason. Are you able to confirm that for me? I'd love to keep up with your posts. :)
