From the bestselling author of I Find You in the Darkness, a book of poetry celebrating strong women and the men they crave.

I never needed a Man.

I needed a Viking.

I needed someone who wasn't afraid of my strengths or of my needs.

I chose wrong in the past . . .

Beloved contemporary poet Alfa is back with a brand-new collection of more than 180 heartfelt poems on the theme of woman warriors and the masculine heroes they long for. In gorgeous, compelling, and intimate prose, I Needed a Viking takes us on an emotional journey of a woman searching for strength in the midst of a storm.
