Back To Life Stats

Hero: Angeles Beach SWAT Officer Trevor Owens - handsome, brave, willing to risk his life to do his job...and nearly dies.

Heroine: K-9 Cop Skye Rydell - a dedicated cop, too--one with a secret; she has Valkyrie powers over life and death. She brings Trevor back to life, not realizing that doing so will have unanticipated consequences.

Dear Readers:

A few years ago, I was fortunate enough to take a Baltic Sea cruise. I visited several Scandinavian countries, and was interested to see that very little today spoke of the fascinating legends of their past. I started doing research on my own--and BACK TO LIFE was the result!

Nordic legends abound with stories involving Valkyries--a term evolved from an old Norse word meaning “choosers of the slain.” In some tales, Valkyries are terrible, ugly creatures that cause death. In others, they are lovely, virginal women who decide which mortally wounded warriors are worthy of saving for future battles by whisking them to a wonderful afterlife in Valhalla. I liked the latter idea, although the Valkyries in my mind were real women with sexual urges they could fulfill.

In BACK TO LIFE, Skye Rydell, a K-9 cop, is the descendant of generations of Valkyrie women with the power of deciding, in many situations, who will live and who, if dying, will cross a rainbow bridge and face a peaceful afterlife. When she makes a split-second decision to save the life of mortally wounded SWAT officer Trevor Owens, her life is changed forever.

I hope you enjoy it! Please come visit me at my website: www.LindaOJohnston.com and at my blog: http://KillerHobbies.blogspot.com
