DNF - I started this because one of my friends said it was not as bad as it seems and I read the entire series to this point. I was going to give it the benefit of the doubt. I’m sorry but his actions were cruel. He made her believe for nearly 20 years that she was nothing. No men approached her because he scared them off. She missed dances and al the things young girls look forward to. Then when he decided to finally figure out a way to get the danger cleared up he freaks when he sees a man at her house. The grovel was minimal l, which is where I stopped. 20 years of torture and she forgives him in minutes and within 24 hours they are going at it like bunnies.


I’m so sad. I’ve read every book in this series but this one is just NO. He pushed her away for 20 YEARS making her feel bad about herself because he scared any man off. She basically missed out on her young adult life because he wouldn’t man up. I Ike my heroes alpha and that is not alpha.

Thane and Erika have known each other for a long time (it's either been eighteen or twenty years, the book stated both), and while the instant connection was there, Thane didn't act on it for fear of Erika's safety.

Erika has resigned herself to being alone, to not being enough for the one man she's always wanted. Thane, after being informed of how much damage his waiting caused, takes the necessary steps to squash the threat to Erika once and for all so he can claim his woman. However, after all this time, he has some groveling to do.

Will Erika forgive Thane for unintentionally hurting her? Can they finally get their HEA?

One-click now and follow along as two soulmates take the step toward their forever.

Ok boys and girls...here's the deal. I freakin' loved this one. I really did. If you know anything about the type of H's I like, Thane falls into that category. This one is definitely going into my re-read pile.
-virgin h, celebate H
-no OM/OW drama
-dual POV
-insta-love
-OTT
-no abuse
-no cheating
I've been enjoying the Jorgensen series immensely but this one is at the top of that list, and that's saying something cuz they're all so good. This one is a bit different due to the huge time span of h/H not being together but I really enjoyed how it all played out. Still on my search for Sven though. I'm getting pretty excited!

Erika has given up on love, resigned to be on the outside looking in at happy couples all around her. After finding her one, after one magic kiss and his rejection she was sad. When no other man would ask her out, she figured it had to be her. Now she runs a flower shop where other people pick up bouquets to celebrate their love and hides how sad she is. Thane never thought that things would be so out of control. After finding a solution to his problem, he is now ready to show Erika how he really feels. But is it too late, has too much time gone by?

This was an emotional book for me. Erika's pain, her experiences in high school and adult life, her lack of self esteem was like a hand in my chest squeezing my heart. Thane is a big dummy, he is more beta than the other men we have seen in this series but it works for me in this situation. He didn't have all the life experience to figure out his situation. When he finds out how bad he messed up, he goes to Erika's house and it was everything I hoped for. I do hope we get a few more stories from the Jorgensen's, I'm not ready to say goodbye to this quirky family.

Finally

Finally Erika and Thane get their HEA. I’m not gonna lie, this one was a bit heartbreaking at the beginning. You could feel Erika’s pain. Glad that they got it all worked out.

Erika and Thane's story has been in the works for 20 years and I'm so glad that in this read, they finally get the chance to be together and FINALLY get the happy ending they both deserved :)

You have everything you want in this story; passion, funny moments, some sad moments, some misunderstandings, obstacles to overcome, steamy and hot as hell scenes, family bonding moments, a safe read with absolutely no cheating nor condoms (hello, these alpha men want to breed their mate all the time, ha, ha) and a great epilogue as well as a tease for the next story and who it might be... Not spoiling it so go ahead and read this incredible story because I can guarantee you, you definitely won't regret doing so ;)

First things first; I love the cover of this book!
Erika is book five in the Jorgensen series. This story is short, fast paced and a nice read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. The Jorgensen family have a gift of knowing who their soul mate is as soon as they meet them. Erika has known that her brother’s best friend, Thane was her one for years. After he rejected her Erika is hurt. Years later and in her thirties, Erika is drowning in jealousy of her happy family members. The last thing she expects is for Thane to finally decide he wants her.
Thane has been in love with Erika for years. Due to a dangerous situation, he had held off 18 years before it is finally safe to make her, his.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and an enjoyable read.

I loved this story with Erika and Thane. Erika who for many years wanted to be with her brother's best friend Thane, but Thane didn't feel he should be with Erika. Thane didn't want any man around her so Erika's self esteem of who she was wasn't good. It made me happy when Thane finally realized he wanted Erika but you wondered if Erika would give him the time of day. I was pleased when they finally realized they were meant for one another. Thank you I am loving the Jorgensen family. Thank you again ladies.

Erika

Finally!! I feel like I have been waiting forever for her to get her happily ever after! I was definitely not disappointed!

Erika and Thane have a looooong bumpy road to get their happily ever after. I don’t want to give too much away so I’m going to leave it at that.

While Erika is a stand alone you really should read the series from the beginning. There are lots crossover characters! This as well as the rest of the series is safe!!

Petal!!

Erika is another Amazing Story added to the Jorgensen’s series!! I can not tell you how much I am in love with this series. With each book I fall more and more in love with the Jorgensen clan and extended family. Thane finally laid it all out so that he could finally claim his Petal, and after waiting for so long thinking that she wasn’t worthy of love, Erika finally gets her forever!! Love love love this one!!

Received as an ARC for an honest review.
Erika was Thane's one. For reasons unknown to Erika, he kept his distance from her for a while. This distance made her second guess her worth. Thane finally gets his crap together to finally claim her. Once she was willing to forgive him, they were wonderful together. The book was a great addition to the series.

Sweet

This was a sweet short story to read. It was sad at first when she thought no one thought she was cute and worth having a life with. Then came her man that was the cause of her never getting a boyfriend or anything because he warned everyone to stay away from her. In the end he loved her and made her his

I have read the entire series so far, and all I can say is, if you haven’t read the series yet I suggest you should!! Not all stories will be happy throughout, but love is never good and perfect all the way through. It has it negatives and downfalls. But if you have that pure, raw, true love you can overcome anything!

Such a HOT quick read

Erika an up coming amazing fashion designer and yet she wants to be loved just like everyone else. The only problem is she is afraid she won’t be able to do what she loves if she goes down that path with being in a relationship.

Thane loved her the moment he saw her and she is the most stubborn woman today. He is doing everything he can to claim her but she keeps running the other way.

With a misunderstanding Thane finally claims her and just as he is about to make her realize this is it, he has to find her.

Sexy read and I want MORE!

Erika knew who what she wanted when she was 16 but the sting of rejection set her down a path of not believing in herself.
Thane knew Erika was his but his secrets and other things kept them apart for years will they be able to over come the past and live for the future? Emotional read with a few twist and turns that will have you on the verge of tears. Can't wait to read the next one

Loved this book. Erika thought she was ugly and not worth of love because her love interest she thought didnt love her, all the while he was trying to protect her. Fast forward 20 years the story heats up. Very quick read full of alpha Male at its finest.

I liked Erika and Thane. I liked their connection once it actually happened. The 20 yrs they were kept apart was a lot and just pushed away so quickly. Erika forgives and forgets in a hot minute. Either way I like the characters and enjoyed the story.

ERIKA: FILTHY MODERN VIKINGS

Finally Erika got her man, her little family and happily ever after. Thane must have been in his own little world to not realize what he did to her life in the name f love. Took him long enough to get it together.

Ugh...consistency means nothing in these stories. From the previous book it was like 16 years then in this one it was 18 then suddenly 20 in the chapter. Forgive the one you love and all but make him work for it at least.

Another great one

I just can't say how much I am enjoying these stories. I really prefer these quick reads. I love a story I can finish in a few hours, otherwise life happens and i get pulled away. Instalove, alpha male and lots of heat.
