The pirate bride
Medana Elsadottir, known as the Sea Scourge, never planned to become a pirate, but there's no denying her talent. Her female-only tribe has an island hideaway, food aplenty, goods to trade ... everything except the means to breed. That's were the strapping Norsemen tied up in her ship's hold come in handy. Eight godly specimens---and Thork Tykirsson is the most virile of them all. Once their, eh, work is done, they'll be free to leave. Medana had naught to do with this gods-awful plan, but she wouldn't mind reaping the benefits.
