Nothing can stop Raine Cooper when she wants something…
Raine finally knows that her gorgeous neighbor, Torin St. James, is a legend straight out of Norse mythology, and that her feelings for him are strong. Torin is crazy about Raine too, breaking the one rule he lives by: Never fall for a mortal. The problem is he no longer remembers her, his memories erased by Norns—Norse destiny deities—to punish her for defying them.
She will make Torin forget his one rule a second time and fall in love with her all over again.
But she quickly learns that well-laid plans do not work when dealing with deities and supernatural beings. Desperate, Raine makes choices that could not only tear her and Torin further apart, but lead to the destruction of everything and everyone she loves.
EXCERPT
A bad feeling washed over me. She didn’t want me to go to my car. Why? I glanced over at where I had parked. Eirik and Torin appeared to be doing something to my car. Somehow I hadn’t realized that the crowd I’d seen earlier had been near my car.
Lavania’s grip tightened. “Okay, some students trashed your car, and Torin is taking care of it,” she said, her voice gentler.
I yanked my arm from her hand and ran across the nearly empty parking lot, my heart pounding. Torin and Eirik knelt by the back tire. Torin was sketching runes on the tire, which had a huge tear and was deflated. More runes covered the windows of my car.
“What did they write on the windows?”
“It doesn’t matter,” Torin said. He glanced at Eirik. “Get her out of here.”
I raised a finger when Eirik stood. “No, I’m not going anywhere. What did they write on my car, Eirik?”
“Die, witch, d—”
“Shut up, Seville.” Torin’s eyes narrowed on my face. “We’ll find whoever did this, Freckles, and make them pay.”

“You called me Freckles,” I whispered, staring at Torin.
A bewildered expression crossed his face. “What?”
“Freckles, my nickname.” I touched my nose. He looked more confused, which told me he must be remembering things on a subliminal level without understanding what they meant. I sighed. I was in for a very long and very painful recovery phase. I should’ve been happy his subconscious was spitting out information, right? It meant his memories were there, just suppressed. Somehow, I couldn’t bring myself to celebrate yet. “Never mind.”
This is yet another amazing read from Ednah Walters. This book is a gripping emotional read that had my heart aching for Raine. Torin is even more infuriating than he was in Runes. He's being chased by Raine as she tries to make him love her again. It's so different from Runes but similar because he's still charming, annoying and full of bad boy charisma. One thing that Ednah Walters excels at is writing an amazing bad boy character. You start out hating him but by the end of Runes, you love him. That love of the character is not lost in Immortals. The world building is exceptional as always. I love that Ednah makes it feel like you could run into the characters at the supermarket. It feels so real. Overall, this is an amazing book and an awesome series.
