Ashe Barker
141 books799 followersUntil 2010, Ashe was a director of a regeneration company before deciding there had to be more to life and leaving to pursue a lifetime goal of self-employment.
Ashe has been an avid reader of erotic romance for many years—historical, contemporary, fantasy—you name it. Now, at last in control of her own time and working from her home in rural West Yorkshire, she has been able to realise her dream of writing sexy and compelling stories herself.
She draws on settings and anecdotes from her previous and current experience to lend colour, detail and realism to her plots and characters, but her stories of love, challenge, resilience and compassion are the conjurings of her own imagination. She loves to craft strong, enigmatic men and bright, sassy women to give them a hard time—in every sense of the word.
When she’s not writing, Ashe’s time is monopolised by her role as grandma to a lively toddler. She shares her writing space with a tortoise called Teefer.

Enjoyed the story, shame about the explicit sex scene. Which ruined the story for me. 3.5 stars
June 12, 2020
3.5. If you like Viking stories this is quite a good read. However, it is a shame about the switching , which was way over the top and has affected my rating.
May 3, 2020
Erotica with minimal effort at world building or plot. BDSM vibes. Call me vanilla if you like, but beating someone repeatedly with a switch isn't ok to me. Oh, and the word "cunny", always makes me want to gag. Let's hope the next one is better!

I read this when it was part of Vikings (the set is now sold as separate books). Because not much has changed -- with the exception of a much-needed epilogue since the original version ended abruptly -- I'm going to leave my original review here.
Below is my opinion; take it for what it's worth.
All the books are enemies-to-lovers stories (though Brandr and Eithne are never really enemies) and have three (as I saw it) overall themes. One is -- as another reviewer very wisely mentioned -- the importance of moving on from loss (both MC's have lost beloved spouses). The second is the blending of cultures (particularly welcome in today's anti-immigrant, us-vs.-them world) as each Pict and Viking character shares stories or customs from their respective lands: in this case, Brand tells Eithne about Viking wedding ceremonies after they have their Pictish wedding. The third is dominance/submission broadly applied to an entire town. That is, the Vikings act as doms (protective providers who rescue the Picts from enemy attacks) and the Picts as submissives (those who swear their obedience in exchange for this protection). Thus, while both the men and women are marrying under duress (rather than just the women), it's the centuries-old marital bargain before the appearance of more modern views of marriage: each partner brings something tangible to the marriage that has nothing do with love or shared interests. In this case, the Vikings bring the brawn to defend the community, and the Picts provide the land. Of course, since this is romance, love does grow between the couples. And, because it's an erotic romance in this particular genre, the sexual acts are described and often akin to those in BDSM and/or dd.
Let me confess up front that I don't like this author. While the editing and grammar are fine, her dialogue and erotic descriptions are stiff and emotionless (probably due to her attempts to write somewhat historically true dialogue; unfortunately, all it does is sound forced and affected, as it does here) and her male characters equally so (her female ones I find more palatable). While her contemporary books are consensual, her Viking ones are not, and she is yet another in a long, long, long list of authors whose heroes punish their women for very reasonably objecting to being captured, kidnapped, and enslaved ("How dare you try to escape when I'm trying to carry you off" is pretty much how this goes; see, for example, Her Celtic Captor). Therefore, even with the HEA endings, I never warm up to her male characters as they aren't men I'd ever want to meet in real life: their rigidity, lack of humor, and aloofness make them unpalatable to me. While I did feel that way about Brandr, to some extent, and while the author's writing is still filled with overly precious purple prose ("Odin's balls") and often cringe-worthy sentences ("She had not appeared to object, but even so, the first time he drove his cock into her tight, hot sheath could have been accomplished with rather more in the way of finesse"), I did feel this story was better. For one thing, though I don't think that what Eithne is punished for was really her fault, I understand why Brandr holds her accountable and why she agrees to it. In addition, Eithne is a very strong heroine who leads the village (too bad she has to ) and it's her plan that sets all the stories in motion. She also stands up to him when he's wrong. To his credit, he bends more than Ms. Barker's other heroes in that he does apologize to her. This apology, though, depicts what is a central problem in most of the books in this genre: when the woman makes a mistake, she's punished; the man just has to apologize and "We good?" While his actions are motivated, they're extremely selfish and unfair -- he comes across as a petulant teenage boy throwing a tantrum, in fact -- and he should have done more to make up for them.
I would have rated this more highly, but the dd is pretty vicious and, in my opinion, goes beyond the realm of "spanking" into beating since he uses a switch. ("She was sobbing, howling in pain with each stroke;" "They will hurt, and I do not expect you to sit in comfort for several days”). If this bothers you as much as it does me, but you like to read about Vikings, then I'd skip this story and read either Magnus or Ragnar, who, amazingly enough, manage to have sex and good relationships with their wives without harming them.

easy
Quick no nonsense easy read. Kinda sweet sometimes. It progressed quickly with little or no drama. Interesting that his son had to tell him he was being a jerk.

After reading the Prologue, my expectancy for this book was high. It did not live up to that expectancy and combined with some kinky sex I was about to skip the book and the series. But since I like viking stories I continued to read. In the end it improved and I give it 3 stars.
May 7, 2021
The prologue hadn't quite given me the idea that these stories might be confronting. I refer in particular to the so-called 'discipline' handed out by Brandr to Eithne. Now I know modern sensibilities are involved and life was harsher then, but these stories are categorised as romances. Eithne was strong, brave, adaptable and resourceful I would have thought an ideal wife. Brandr comes across as a bit of a brute. If you are into spanking and discipline this will appeal.

Brandr is the second book in the Viking Surrender series, and I strongly suggest reading book one, or the prologue to this series, first! Eithne has agreed to be Brandr’s wife, but first they must get through some of the tension that lies between them. As time passes, they quickly grow closer together and can’t help but fall in love, but when Eithne receives unexpected news, will her marriage be ruined?
After reading the prologue, you can’t help but want to know the rest of their story, how they come together and deal with their differences! I loved reading this book and it absolutely lived up to how I hoped it would go. Eithne is so courageous, so protective of her people, and has such a huge heart for those around her. I really loved her character and her willingness to fix what wasn’t working. Brandr is such an alpha male, full of dominance and a natural leader, but I loved seeing his softer side and him dealing with his vulnerabilities. I loved them together, their passion and drive to succeed, and I did love their path to finding love. This ending is everything perfect! I’m definitely crying happy tears, but it’s just so good! You get so wrapped up in these characters, in their journey and growth and you can’t help but fall in love with them and cheer them to their happiness. I loved reading this book and already look forward to the next in the series!

Under-developed but still a fun read
The premise was fun and the historical elements were done well. (To be clear, I have no idea how accurate they were to the year specified, BUT…the names, clothing, lifestyle, etc all have the feel of being in the 900s and really helped build the setting). The sex scenes and discipline were well-done as well.
The only weakness, really, was a lack of development between the two MCs. As I dividuals they had full-personalities, but the relationship between the two happened really quickly, even for a romance. I was able to suspend belief and go with the flow still, but there was still a niggling little voice saying it was forced by the writer and not believeable, which takes away from the over all enjoyment. So, yes, it was still fun read, but it could have been more if my brain hadn’t been taken out of the story somewhat by the speed of the MCs falling in love.

The punishment and disciplinary action was abusive beyond forgiveness.
I really enjoyed the first book, Viking Surrender, but book 2, Brandr was both physically and sexually abusive beyond what could ever be forgiven. The punishment and disciplinary action scene ruined the story for me. I don't think the character could recover from such brutality and ever trust again, let alone ever love her abuser!
I will be trying the rest of the stories in this series, each written by different authors, featuring other characters.

It helps if you read the free prologue first.
Good, short and steamy read. The heroin was strong, brave and smart.
The Viking Jarl was wise and kind but strong and fearless. He was kinky, his disciplne rough but she liked it.
Keep in mind the time period they were in and the fact he only used it once and you should understand. Hey it happened back then.
I want to at least see what happened in his brother and sister's marrages, so i'll read at least two more in the series. ; )

The second book in the Viking Surrender series we now get to see how Eithne and Brandr's life goes after he chose her as his wife. We also get to see some of the village life and some of the other people. His Sons Havardr and Leif are brought to live with them also. I want to read the next book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Viking husband
Eithne made a deal to save her village from Vikings and becomes Brandr's bride. She lied to him and is punished on their wedding day. He switches her as punishment but is kind afterward. Their relationship develops but it's not smooth sailing. This was a good story in the series.

Wonderful
So enjoyed Brandr and Eithiene's story. I love stories about Vikings, so few authors write about them anymore. Viking men are so tough, yet they can be tamed to some extent by a good women. As usual live wins out in the end. I have purchased the series and looking forward to reading rest of the books.

Fabulous
Brandr and Eithne have a tale not unlike many Viking tales. In this romantic adventure love is just what saves the day. The Viking leader agrees to save the small village and marriage of his warriors to the women. Little does he realize that this is exactly what he needs. Heartwarming and sensual. Loved it.

I enjoyed this story, it was very sweet and a good first couple to read about in this series. However, the way Brandr acted when Eithne fell pregnant made me want to put the entire story down and not finish. The way she tried to get him to forgive her absolutely broke me and made me resent Brandr. Even when I finished the story I still had bad feelings about him for how he treated her.

Invaded
Eithne makes a bargain with Brandr to save her people and village, but he is a man with rules and consequences. She will warm his bed but he will warm her backside at his pleasure!

Brandr and Eithne
These two were good together. It took courage to talk down Viking invaders who were coming to take over. But that is what Eithne is made of. Show no fear should be her motto. On to the next one.

Good read
This was a good read but I would have loved for it to be longer. I wanted to see more after he begged her to forgive him. I hope we learn more later on. That is why I gave it 4 stars because parts could have been explained better...

A sucker for Brandr
I wish this had been longer! As the Jarl, I hope there is more of Brandr and Eithne. They’re perfect for each other and I look forward to seeing him interact with his men as the become immersed in the new land of their brides.

Very Enjoyable!
Eithne (Enya) and Brandr I thought were great together. I loved how strong she was and fought hard for what they all needed. I loved the characters and storyline so much. On to the next one. 💜💜💜💜💜

Good read
This is a good book. It's a love story but the characters don't keep hunting reasons not to love each other other like they do in most love stories.

I haven't read too many Viking stories but I liked this one. I like the chemistry between the characters even though I did question the 'punishment' part. No spoilers, I just didn't expect it :)

Parts of this are rough to read but it was the way Vikings lived. Very engrossing story.

Great historical romance
Loved the time period and the characters. They are well rounded, the plot is interesting and the sexual situations are well thought out.
