The Viking in the Vault by Chloe Parker

She unearthed an ancient warrior. Now, he’ll claim her as his.
Elena came to the frostbound tunnels of M’mir’s Eiskammer Library to study climate collapse—not to unearth a frozen warrior from a four-thousand-year slumber. But when a cave-in awakens Ragnar, a towering, antlered Skoll warrior from a lost era, her plans are shattered.

Ragnar doesn’t speak her language, but his piercing gaze and fierce devotion make one thing clear: she’s his fated mate. As Elena struggles to translate his words and resist their growing bond, historians swarm, eager to study the relic of a forgotten war.
But Ragnar’s survival holds bigger implications—he may be the key to finding others lost in the ice and uncovering secrets buried for millennia. As the world clamors for answers, Elena is caught between scientific discovery, the pull of an ancient warrior, and a future she never planned for.
With a loyal alien husky at his side and centuries of loneliness in his eyes, Ragnar isn’t just a relic of the past—he’s unforgettable. And for Elena, falling for him might be the most dangerous discovery of all.

Perfect for fans of Ursa Dax, Krista Luna, and Tiffany Roberts, THE VIKING IN THE VAULT combines steamy sci-fi romance with ancient warriors, fated mates, and deep-space mystery.

Unearth the past. Fight for the future. Fall for the alien Viking.
