The True Destiny series by Dana Marie Bell takes Norse mythology and drops it into a modern paranormal romance setting. The gods are alive and living among humans, each one looking for their fated mate. Very Much Alive opens with a character inspired by Baldur, the Norse god of light, and the series continues through seven books that draw on different figures from the mythology.
Eye of the Beholder, Just the Way You Are, and Howl For Me each introduce new mythological characters and their romantic pairings. Morgan’s Fate, Not Broken, and Hide and Seek round out the series, published between 2013 and 2017. Bell brings her usual blend of humor, steamy romance, and action to the mythological material, making the Norse gods feel approachable rather than distant.
The True Destiny books are separate from Bell’s shifter and fae series, though fans of her other work will recognize her style. The Norse mythology angle gives this series its own identity among Bell’s catalog, offering a different flavor of paranormal romance for readers who enjoy mythological retellings.
