title: Stolen by the Viking
author: Carter, Eliza
description: The Lady Tilda of Skarsmore is the consummate gentlewoman. But when Alfred, King of the Saxons, gifts her manor to a Viking in return for peace, Tilda sets out to prove that a woman's touch is stronger than heathen might. She has acted as ealdorman for her people for three years, since her husband's death in battle. She has proven that a woman can do anything a man can do, usually even better, thank you very much.  Soren Guthredson is prepared to conciliate with whatever rotten-toothed, potbellied ealdorman he is dispossessing, but he is literally knocked off his horse when he meets the beautiful Tilda. She is nothing like a Viking woman, and he is puzzled as to why he finds her so damned attractive. Soren is everything Tilda never wanted in a man, but she is drawn to him. If Tilda is not careful, she will find not just her lands, but her heart...Stolen by the Viking
