Hide
your virgins! These are not your mother's Vikings. Nine "out of this
world" Viking erotic romances: modern, sexy versions of the original alpha
male bad boy heroes. Nine brand new bedtime stories!
VIKING
FIRE by award-winning author CRYSTAL JORDAN. Wolf-shifter Erik once betrayed
the only woman he ever loved, the shieldmaiden Bryn, and it cost both their
lives. Now, they serve the gods as immortal warriors, and an ancient prophecy
forces them together to try to stop the coming apocalypse. What they don’t
expect is for the fire to burn as hot between them as ever.
AT THE
VIKING’S COMMAND by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author ANNE MARSH.
A werewolf tries to protect her Pack and ends up in the arms of a ruthless
Viking. Following her Viking’s orders ignites a fiery passion and fulfills her
secret fantasies, but can she claim her Viking for keeps?
HEL's
BELLES by DAYNA HART. Hela's one-night stand is assigned to mentor her through
the creation of her new motorcycle club, but as their relationship starts to
develop, the secrets she's keeping might cost her everything.
THE
VIKING QUEEN'S MEN by award-winning author HOLLEY TRENT. As the newly installed
queen of an enclave of telepathic Viking descendants, Tess is the final arbiter
of conflicts. Unfortunately, the very first one she has to resolve is in her
own bedroom. Two men would fight to the death to win her, but to gain full
control of her considerable power, she must find a way to keep them both.
TAMING
THE VIKING'S DRAGON by SHAWNTELLE MADISON. Only two riders can
command an ice dragon…Drifa wants nothing more than to complete her training as
a Woman of Frost, but she is called to help destroy an evil force fallen from
the stars. Three years ago, she left Steinn behind. To fight this new foe, they
must forget their differences and reunite as man and woman. But for two Viking
warriors, waging war is easier than forging peace.
A
VIKING'S PEACE by NYT Bestselling Author ZOE YORK. Thrown together in an
intergalactic diplomatic mission, Reinn and Ashleigh know they must fight the
burning attraction between them. But this Viking has finally found his mate,
and nothing else matters.
VIKING'S
HEART by national bestselling author LORIBELLE HUNT. Jolie Hall is ready for
her life to change. Being given to a Viking to clear her father's debts isn’t
quite what she had in mind, however. She can’t deny she’s drawn to Stone
Ulfson, but can she believe his claim that she is his destined mate?
VIKING'S
FURY by award-winning author SARANNA DEWYLDE. Magnus the Destroyer will do
anything to escape prison planet Hel and punish his captors, including taking
the warden's innocent daughter Mercy as collateral. Only after they crash on an
uninhabited planet, Magnus learns some things are more precious than vengeance.
VIKING
UNBOUND by New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author KATE PEARCE. Encased
in ice, traveling through space and thousands ofyears adrift from his world,
Viking Einarr Bloodaxe can’t help but respond to the call of his female and
finally break free of his magical entrapment.
My Review:
I read the first two stories in Vikings Unleashed. I loved reading about werewolves and the paranormal. I cannot wait to read the rest of them to see what happens. The writers are fantastic. I give this 5 stars.

When
Kate Pearce says, "Filthy Vikings?", her friends get writing. Vikings
Unleashed is the joyful product of nine romance authors, united in their
fascination with the modern, sexy re-telling of the original alpha male bad
boy. Pearce is a NYT and USA Today bestselling author of more than 30 romance
novels. She's joined by NYT and USA Today bestselling authors Anne Marsh and
Zoe York, award-winning authors Crystal Jordan and Holley Trent, national
bestselling author Loribelle Hunt, as well as, Saranna De Wylde, Shawntelle
Madison and Dayna Hart.
After
ten years of graduate school and too many degrees, Anne Marsh escaped
to become a technical writer. When not planted firmly in front of the laptop
translating Engineer into English, Anne enjoys gardening, running (even if it’s
just to the 7-11 for slurpees), and reading books curled up with her kids. The
best part of writing romance, however, is finally being able to answer the
question: “So… what do you do with a PhD in Slavic Languages and Literatures?”
Become a New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author that’s what!
Never
one to stay in one place very long, Crystal Jordan has lived
and worked all over the United States. Currently, she serves as a librarian at
a university in the California Bay Area.
In
2006, Crystal sold the first story she ever finished to the e-publisher,
Cobblestone Press. Since then, she’s sold contemporary, paranormal, futuristic,
and erotic romance to Samhain Publishing, Harlequin Spice Briefs, The Wild Rose
Press, and Ellora’s Cave.
Then,
the day before the 2007 RWA National Conference, she got The Call to be a part
of Kensington Aphrodisia’s Sexy Beast anthology. After a
whirlwind month, she had an agent and an additional two-book deal with
Kensington.
And she
lived happily ever after.
Dayna
Hart hates writing bios more than almost anything
except crawly-bugs (which means one of her four sons is, of course, determined
to be an entomologist when he grows up.) Without her husband, she would have a
houseful of cats, but with his influence, they have stopped at three. For now.
When not writing, Dayna can be found streaming entire seasons of TV shows on
Netflix (while eating either salt and vinegar potato chips or a chocolate bar
(Bounty is her current fave)), playing video games, or dancing around the house
to (loud) emo music. You can find her on her favorite social media sites, but
there are absolutely NO photos or video allowed of said dancing. (You’re
welcome)
Holley
Trent is a Carolina girl gone west. Raised in rural
coastal North Carolina, she’s a lady with Southern sensibilities, but in 2011
her adventurous spirit drove her to Colorado for new experiences. She lives on
the Front Range with her husband, two kids, and two cats. She writes snarky
contemporary and paranormal romances ranging from sensual to erotic that are
usually set in her home state. Her humor is sometimes subtle, often ribald, and
regularly inappropriate. If any of her stories seem overly serious at first
glance–keep reading.
She’s a
winner of the inaugural CIM-RWA Abalone
Award (for My Nora) and a
three-time Colorado
Romance WritersAward of Excellence
finalist (My Nora, Calculated
Exposure, and A Demon
in Waiting). A Demon in
Waiting was aRomConReaders’
Crown finalist in 2014.
Kate
Pearce was born into a large family of girls in
England, and spent much of her childhood living very happily in a dream world.
Despite being told that she really needed to ‘get with the program’, she
graduated from the University College of Wales with an honors degree in
history. After graduation, real life did intervene and she ended up working in
finance which was not the greatest career choice for a would-be writer!
A move
to the USA finally allowed her to fulfill her dreams and sit down and write
that novel. Along with being a voracious reader, Kate loves trail riding with
her family, ‘western style’ in the regional parks of Northern California. Kate
writes in several different romance sub-genres under different names. She is a
member of RWA and is published by Kensington Aphrodisia, Ellora’s Cave and
Virgin Black Lace/Cheek.
Loribelle
Hunt is a beach bunny at heart, but in a pinch she’ll
settle for a pool. An Atlanta native, the Army relocated her to southern
Alabama more years ago than she cares to remember. Since it only snows once
every two decades or so, she decided to stay. She lives with her husband of
twenty years, their three kids, and way too many English Springer Spaniels. She
writes erotic science fiction and paranormal romance often with a Southern
accent.
Saranna
De Wylde has always been fascinated by things better left
in the dark. She wrote her first story after watching The Exorcist at a slumber
party. Since then, she’s published horror, romance and narrative nonfiction.
Like all writers, Saranna has held a variety of jobs, from operations
supervisor for an airline, to an assistant for a call girl, to a corrections
officer. But like Hemingway said, “Once writing has become your major vice and
greatest pleasure, only death can stop it.” So she traded in her cuffs for a
full-time keyboard. She loves to hear from her readers.
Shawntelle
Madison loves to write stories where something
mysterious always happens. Her stories unfold in either a magical place or she
drop kicks her heroine and hero into the mix of crazy magical circumstances.
Her characters have been swimming around in her head for the longest of time,
but its only recently that she has given into their demands and wrote down
their adventures.
Why
paranormal? Well, every time she thinks about writing something straight
forward she gets caught in the what-if exercise. What if her hero was a
werewolf or if her heroine was a nymph? How far could she go down the rabbit
hole and not sound crazy? (Yet still be somewhat believable?) Writing is one of
her first loves, besides web development. She is a die hard geek who earned her
undergraduate degree in Math from Iowa State University. (She even almost
finished a degree in Russian Studies.)
Her
debut novel, Coveted, was chosen as a B&N Romance Bookseller pick for the month
of May.
Zoe York is
a busy working mom of two young boys, and she has been a voracious romance
reader for as long as she can remember. In early 2012, she got an idea for a
novel. Then another, and another. Her Google Drive account exploded with outlines
and chunks of text and character bibles.
Over Christmas, she started a holiday novella. By the
end of January, it was clear she was going to wander past novella length, and
the story wasn’t limited to the holiday season. And it wasn’t just one book, anymore
– it was also an introduction to a small town, Wardham.
A year later, she is putting the finishing touches on
the fourth Wardham title, and getting ready to launch a new series (Camo Cay).
That series will be written on a much slower schedule, but look for the first
two titles in 2014.
