Sandra Hill - [Vikings I 05]
Page 31
In essence, The Blue Viking represents the way I imagine history could have been lived, not necessarily the way that it was.
A special thanks goes out to fellow Dorchester author, Melanie Jackson, who was gracious in helping me with some of the Gaelic and Scottish history.
As always, I am interested in knowing what you readers think of my Vikings. I can be reached at:

’Tis enough to drive a sane Viking mad, the things Tykir Thorksson is forced to do—capturing a red-headed virago, putting up with the flock of sheep that follow her everywhere, chasing off her bumbling brothers. But what can a man expect from the sorceress who put a kink in the King of Norway’s most precious body part? If that isn’t bad enough, he is beginning to realize he isn’t at all immune to the enchantment of brash red hair and freckles. But he is not called Tykir the Great for nothing. Perhaps he can reverse the spell and hold her captive, not with his mighty sword but with a Viking man’s greatest magic: a wink and a smile.

The Last Viking
SANDRA HILL
He is six feet, four inches of pure unadulterated male. He wears nothing but a leather tunic, speaks in an ancient tongue, and he is standing in Professor Meredith Foster’s living room. The medieval historian tells herself he is part of a practical joke, but with his wide gold belt, callused bauds, and the rabbit roasting in her fireplace, the brawny stranger seems so… authentic. Meredith is mesmerized by his muscular form, and her body surrenders to the fantasy that Geirolf Ericsson really is a Viking from a thousand years ago. As he helps her fulfill her grandfather’s dream of re-creating a Viking ship, he awakens her to dreams of her own until she wonders if the hand of fate has thrust her into the arms of the last Viking.
