Elora is a cultivated Londoner visiting her brother in Oslo, Norway. With her brother away on business, she decides to do without his permission and borrow his classic Jaguar to take in the sights. But when she pulls over to the side of the road to take pictures, the car won’t start up again. In a blind panic, Elora has nowhere to turn, until a warrior of a man stops to help her. A massive, handsome hunk of a man, clad head to toe in black leather.
Elora has never encountered anyone like Mikkel. As much as he frightens her, she realizes she is out of options. Then comes the exhilarating journey home on his custom ride, and Elora falls hard for her knight in leather armor, an alpha male eager to teach her the rules of Dom/sub relationships. Mikkel is head of his motorcycle club, and in the days that follow, Elora becomes increasingly entangled in the culture of bondage, bikes, and club rivalries. But how can Elora fully commit to a man whose world might as well exist on another planet?

I was really excited about the
prospect of reading this book. I’ve read dozens of MC books, but they have all
been US-based, so I found the idea of a non-American MC club intriguing. Don’t
think I am so naïve as to believe that motorcycle clubs are a strictly American
phenomena, because I don’t. I’ve just never encountered an MC book set anywhere
other than in the US and I must admit that Norway never crossed my mind as a
potential setting. And this is where I make the even more embarrassing
admission that I failed to put two and two together to realize that an MC club
in Norway meant … VIKING BIKERS!!!!! OH! MY! GOD!!!!!!
If you think bikers are hot, wait
until you meet Mikkel. Freaking heck, I was in heaven reading this book. There
is not a thing about it that I didn’t like. Mikkel alone makes Nordic Lessons a 5-star read for me, but
then Ms. Edwards makes the book a complete reading pleasure with every other
element. I adore Elora. She is sweet and after getting over her initial shock
of encountering a modern-day warrior, she sees past Mikkel’s exterior to the
man within. She is as drawn to him as he is to her. They complement one another
beautifully and this makes for some seriously hot sex scenes, especially as
Mikkel teaches Elora to tap into her submissive nature.
Add to the beauty that is Mikkel,
Ms. Edwards includes a great cast of characters – including one uncomfortably
realistic bad guy. There is just the right amount of drama between Elora and
her brother. And while THE incident that occurs is remedied rather quickly,
that nature of it called for a quick resolution and the author delivered it
without the scene feeling rushed. I found Nordic
Lessons to be an extremely enjoyable read, and while not as gritty as some
of the other MC books I have read, in no way did it feel less than. This is a
definite re-read for me and I intend to add the first book in the series, Naughty in Norway, to my reading list
and cannot wait for the next book in the series.
