Eternal Fire (Fated, #1 previous)

The secret he’s hiding is the least of their concerns…
 
Channing Hakonson isn’t where—or when—he belongs. He’ll do whatever it takes to return to the 9th century and protect his family, even if he has to use every penny of his vast fortune to build a time machine. But when a crime in his port brings him to the attention of a determined and very lovely police detective, his plans (and feelings) get a lot more complicated.
 
All Ella O’Connell has to do to keep her job is solve the case and put the handsome billionaire behind bars. Easy, right? She wishes. Because while the evidence points to his guilt, she knows there’s more to his story than meets the eye—and she plans to uncover all his secrets. Now, if only she could keep her mind (and hands) off her sexy suspect… 
 
But forbidden romance is only where their problems start.  When enemies from Channing’s Viking days arrive with the start of Ragnarok in their wake, will Channing choose to return to his past, or protect his present with Ella? 
 
Only time will tell…
