"Sexy Vikings are also funny in this hilarious must-read."

Twins Toste and Vagn Ivarsson are preparing to do battle with the Saxons of Britain when they walk into an ambush. Each watches as the other falls under the sword.

Toste awakes to find himself in the tender care of a group of worldly nuns. One nun in particular finds the tall blond Viking irresistible, albeit rather crude. Toste sets about to seduce her, even though his big Viking heart is breaking over his brother's death. His only comfort is a giant Viking skald who survived the battle with him. Bolthor is his name, and he recounts the sagas of Toste and Vagn with great charm and wit.

Vagn, barely breathing, with a vicious wound, is brought to a Saxon household. If he survives, he'll make a satisfactory husband for the Lord's daughter, Helga the Homely. Helga has other plans and sets about to seduce the Viking for the child he could give her. She's not interested in marriage. Vagn is distraught over Toste's death, but not so beaten down that he can resist a naughty virgin who'll do just about anything to get in his bed furs.

Ms. Hill writes with a keen knowledge of male sexuality and what goes on in the hero's mind. These two Vikings are hilarious, sexy and full of confidence. This book is laugh- out-loud funny and a must read.
