by Megan Crane
That was how it would be from now on, Helena thought now. She was part of something much bigger than herself, the way she always had been—but she was never going to be alone in that again. Not ever.
She was clan now. So were Melyssa and the baby, for that matter. Clan first, clan forever, just as it said on all the clan sigils.
After all this time and a life spent running, Helena was finally home.

Acknowledgments
I’d like to thank Monique Patterson, whose brainstorming sessions are so much fun they lead to things like crazy futuristic Vikings! And my marvelous agent Holly Root, who never blinks no matter what I bring to her.
This book could not have been written without the tireless help, support, and talking-off-of-Viking-ledges of Jackie Ashenden, Maisey Yates, and Jane Porter, all of whom loved the story and the world long before I had the slightest idea what I was doing with it.
