Stolen by the Viking
Lady Tilda of Skarsmore has supervised the fyrd and the farms of her manor without the interference of a man for three years, but then King Alfred of Wessex gifts her lands to a marauding Dane in return for peace. She vows the Viking will never take possession of what is hers. Even if she has to bend the truth, fight dirty…and pretend she’s not wildly attracted to the marauder in question.
When Soren Guthredson arrives at his new manor to take possession, the full force of Lady Tilda’s beauty literally knocks him off his horse. But he can’t possibly fall for her. She’s a Saxon, after all, and not to mention, at three-and twenty, she’s positively ancient. Still, he pledges she can stay on at Skarsmore as long as she needs, not realizing it may be the greatest mistake he’s ever made…or perhaps his wisest decision ever.
But Skarsmore is the most prosperous holding in Wessex, and Soren and Tilda aren’t the only ones vying for its possession…
Protected by the Viking
A Danish shield maiden. A Saxon warrior hiding from his past. A quest for vengeance that will unite them, or be their destruction…Lady Astrid Guthredsdottir learned long ago to never trust any man. A skilled archer, a deft hand with a blade, she’s never met a Saxon she liked. Until she meets Wulf…Lord Wulfstan of Ethelwaite is a warrior weighed down by tragedy. He’s found solace by doing penance behind the walls of a monastery, but when an enemy from his past threatens those he loves once again, he must pick up his sword to defend them.Astrid and Wulf share a common cause and a passion they can’t deny, but will it be enough to defeat their foe and claim the love they deserve?Author’s Note: Vikings were brutal. Don’t let anyone tell you different. Our heroine deals with the effects of past trauma, and there’s also no small amount of battle and gore.
