Become what you believe.

Elsa Fredriksen knows there’s a thin line between love and fear. As High Healer, she rights the wrongs committed by Asgard’s enemies. But even the gods’ secret weapon can’t undo every injury—especially when her fate is completely entwined with the god she’s trying to save.

Elsa’s in love with the Norse God of Justice. But Forse’s heart is ruled by fear—fear that the past will repeat itself; fear that opening his heart will compromise his ability to do his job; fear that he’ll hurt the one girl he desperately wants to protect. Again.

When Elsa faces off against the very monster she once swore to protect, her survival depends on a power she isn’t sure she can control. And when Forse’s worst nightmare unfolds in front of him, Elsa has to decide whether it’s more important to hold the realms in perfekt balance . . . or hold onto the guy she can’t imagine existing without.
 


My Thoughts:

This was another great book in the Aere Saga!

 We first met Elsa in the first book, Perfekt Order. I liked Elsa from the very start, and after reading Perfekt Balance, I like her even more now. She has such a sweet, kind spirit and cares deeply about others. She often puts their well-being above her own. I thought that was quite admirable! The more I was in Elsa's head, the more I examined my own self and how I view the world around me. Elsa has challenged me to be a better person and to look at the relationships I have with other people in a new light.

Forse was another character I really liked. Even though he is the god of justice, and spends much of his time settling disputes and whatnot, he's also a fierce warrior when he has to be. I really liked him and I cannot wait to learn more about him in the upcoming books. 

I am so happy that we also got to see more of Brynn and Henrik! They're so fun and so stinking cute. I got a few chuckles at the way they interacted with each other. 

In Perfekt Balance we meet a new character, and learn a few things that surprised me. Elsa discovers a lot of new things about herself, and her capabilities. One of the things that I especially liked in Perfekt Balance, was that we got to see a softer side of Tyr. I love the relationship that he has with his sister and how much he looks out for her. 

I am really looking forward to the next adventure. From what I understand, it will be told from Brynn's point-of-view, and she is my favorite character in this series!
