You've heard the news that Vikings weren't just men. Women went a-Viking, too. And if you didn't already know that, you will with bestselling author Sandra Hill's first Avon book, VIKING IN LOVE, which comes out in February...a return for her to historical romance.

VIKING IN LOVE is best described by Sandra as a medieval version of the Dixie Chicks video "Where's Earl." In her book, five Viking sisters kill the abusive husband of one of them (an earl, of course), and bury him at the bottom of a privy.

But, hey, Sandra wasn't the first to discover female Vikings. Back in 1993, Mattel put out its very own Norse Barbie as part of its Dolls of the World collection. Viking Barbie. I kid you not! Wonder if Ken was a Viking, too.

Offered here as a prize, still in its original box, is your very own Viking Barbie. Wouldn't it look great under your tree.

All Lord Caedmon of Larkspur wants, after nine long months in the king's service, is a bit of peace...not five bothersome Viking princesses who invade his keep, especially not the fiery redhead, Breanne. He has half a mind to kick her tempting arse out the door...but wait...he has a much more wickedly delightful plan for this thorn in his...um, side.

Princess Breanne of Stoneheim is shocked at Larkspur's rundown condition with servants and children running wild whilst Caedmon lies abed after a night of mead and, no doubt, wanton bedsport. Breanne must endure the loathsome lout to protect her four sisters. She can hardly imagine what this knight will demand of her in return.
