			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My erotic anthology is finally here! I have teamed up with two of the hottest writers in erotic romance, Ann Cory and Melinda Barron. Check out our sizzling Norse anthologies, Daughters of Odin.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.resplendencepublishing.com/m8_view_item.html?m8:item=236-201-107-400-1"><img src="http://lynarmstrong.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/Cover-206x300.jpg" alt="Cover" width="206" height="300" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-695" /></a></p>
<p>The father of all Gods must teach his three wayward daughters a lesson in humanity. With no options left, he sends them to different time periods on earth to retrieve hidden amulets. If a mortal man finds the pendant first, they must serve him until he willingly gives the amulet to his daughter. The Goddesses have until the winter solstice to return or they will lose their immortality and never see their sisters again.</p>
<p>Kara:<br />
Headstrong and superior, Goddess Kara did not know labor until enslaved by a handsome and obstinate Viking. Stranded without her powers in 9th century Scandinavia, she must seduce her virile master into giving her Odin’s amulet before the winter solstice or she will not only lose her immortality…she will lose her heart.<br />
The strange but beautiful thrall perplexes Chieftain Erik Hallestrom. The girl insists she is a Goddess, yet she is a captured slave. All she wants is his amulet and to leave, yet their sensual nights together tell him otherwise. With his royal brother threatening to raid his colony, can he protect Kara from her delusions of divine heritage? Or will he have to sacrifice her for the safety of his people?<br />
Mist:<br />
The Goddess Mist, daughter of Odin, is about to find her life drastically changed. Plunked down in the middle of Victorian London, she has only a few days to locate an amulet, or she’ll lose her powers forever. She doesn’t count on meeting gorgeous Albert, who is on a mission of his own.<br />
Jola:<br />
Being a goddess isn’t always a bed of roses.<br />
Jola finds herself on Earth after being booted from her luxurious home on Asgard, all because her father, the great God Odin, feels she needs to learn a lesson. To get back home to her adoring sisters Mist and Kara, she must first locate her father’s amulet before the Winter Solstice.<br />
As she sets off on her quest, she runs into desirable Landon Thomas, who not only owns a grand estate and vineyard, but also holds her father’s amulet in his possession. Using the fine art of seduction, Jola plans to convince him to give her the amulet, a plan that has potential, until Landon’s overbearing brother Lloyd decides to step in and stir up trouble.<br />
Jola must decide whether telling Landon the truth about her life back on Asgard will indeed be the key that sets her free, or if she needs to say goodbye to her immortal life altogether.</p>
