(Author's Note)
In reference to the Publisher's Weekly review posted on this page, it's important to note that this is a revised and updated version of Kiss Me Forever. References to the divorce and remarriage have been checked and corrected to be accurate.

(The Reluctant Viking)

(this book was a disappointment)

(It drags on and on and on, and the ending is awful)

(please save me from weak women...)

(A Captivating Time Travel Story!)
I like this author. In fact although I read her Viking books out of series order, I thought I'd start at the beginning with The Reluctant Viking. Good thing I read the others first. This one was terrible. In the "real" world, Ruby would have been shunned or killed because she was insane instead of suddenly been taken in with these people, not to mention showing up mysteriously on a ship in the middle of the sea. I will read more of the Viking series simply because I know what Ms. Hill is capable of and in hopes that this first Viking effort was a fluke.
I have read several others of Ms Hill's books and liked them. They were witty and funny, if not very believable, but this one just sucks big time. It started off a downer and stayed a downer for all of it that I was able to read. I mean, call me a nitpicker but still--in 925 A.D. (I think it was 925)the number of people that could read in any community could be counted on the fingers (probably THUMBS) of one hand. And to have a Viking able to read modern English? I don't THINK so. Plus the so called "hero's" treatment of the heroine--and her being moranic enough to keep pursuing him just does not ring true. Sorry, don't care HOW much he looks like your husband back in "modern" times, he isn't. As a person who has many twins in their family (yes, natural ones, not from fertility treatments) I am very aware that just because two people look just alike doesn't mean that they ARE the same person. This one is definately going to be traded just as soon as I head over to the used bookstore again.


I won't say what the ending was, since I would hate to have anyone do that to me. But, let's just say it was really bad. (Not the very end, rather the 1st ending - that will make sense when you read it.)

I just wanted to smack Ruby upside the head halfway through the book. She was repetitive and stupid. The same theme just dragged on and on from about 1/2 way through to about 3/4 of the way through. It does pick up again, but the story never did draw me back in.

It's an OK read, but I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone.

I am like the next woman, I would think that I would like my men to be strong, but this? The hero was just awful, rude, mean to the girl, just plain awful. The girl just keep coming back for more, like a kicked dog or something. This was not a good book! It has taken me over a week to read it. I usually only take a day or 2 to read books, depending on how busy I am. I am just starting to read Sandra Hill's books. I have bought all her others and I hope those are better.
A wife and mother with a successful career discovers her husband can no longer put up with the fights and the neglect. He leaves her and so starts her adventure through time. In the violent world of vikings she finds her husband going by a different name, but he knows her not. She tries to win his heart and in doing so, she realizes why her husband left her. Will she be able to travel back through time to win him back? Will she even want to go back to the future with his viking version so near and dear to her?

From the first page this book captivated me. I felt every emotion Ruby experienced. The frustration, the jealousy, the desperation, the joy. I fell madly in love with Jack and Thork, but was so angry at Thork at times, I thought I would throw the book across the room. Instead, I kept flipping the pages.

I laughed, I cried, and I laughed and cried some more. I cherished this book thouroughly and finished it in record time. Two days after I opened it for the first time, I have just finished. I woke my fiance with my sobs. You see, he is my viking and I saw so much of him in this novel. I'm sure you'll see your man too, or atleast the viking version of him. More crude, more muscular, more violent, more insufferable, with a deep need to be loved. Thork was such a real character. He was a true viking (violent, a lady's man, fiercely loyal to his family and his honor).

The first Sandra Hill novel I read, I really disliked. It took me a over a year to pick up another of her books. Thankfully I gave her a second chance. I LOVE this book as I do so many of her novels! It's not as funny as many of her other books. It's actually quite sad in parts. But the tragic elements are what make it so wonderful to me. I highly recommend this one. And if you want another novel by this great author that will have you laughing so hard you cry, you have to read The Last Viking. Thank you Sandra Hill!


The hypnotic voice on the self-motivation tape was supposed to help Ruby Jordan solve her problems, not create new ones. Instead, she is swept from a hectic career and failing marriage back to an era of hard-bodied warriors and fair maidens. And the world ten centuries in the past isn't all mead and mirth, either!.

(Pretty Good Story)

(A bookshelf "keeper" if you enjoy the Time-Travel genre!)

(WOW!!!!! A great mind grabber.)

(What an excellent read!)

(The best Time-travel story ever!)
Shelby Manning finds an injured man in a Civil War battlefield and he insists he is Lt. Carter Lindsey, Union soldier from 1862. Shelby takes him home and gets him medical help and decides to let him stay at her home until his "amnesia" passes. Shelby boyfriend "Rory' is not happy about the situation, but since it is not his home he can't do anything about it. Rory and Shelby have been dating for 10 years and he stays at her house one or two nights a week. He is a bartender and sometimes Shelby doesn't see him for days and he just shows up in the middle of the night. Carter is a gorgeous man and Shelby finds out he has a wife, or he thinks he does back in the 1800's and she may be pregnant. He says he needs to get back to her even though it isn't a happy marriage, he feels responsible. Carter gets a job with a landscaper who pays him under the table so he can earn his keep and as he and Shelby start getting to know one another, they start falling love. Shelby finds Rory with another woman and breaks off their relationship, but Carter feels his honor will not let him get involved with Shelby. Carter tells Shelby about some hidden jewels from his past that he hopes his wife will find so at least the baby will be provided for and then they discover there is a descendant of Carter's living in the same town. When it is discovered that Carter appeared during the Northern Lights he attempts to go back in time during another appearance of the Northern Lights but it fails. He really wanted to stay with Shelby but is afraid his guilt will eat him up inside. When a fire sends Shelby back to the past she discovers secrets that can save their relationship in the future.

this was a really great story but I'm only giving it four stars because there are some holes in the story that are never really explained. Why did Shelby go back to the past and what reason was there for the events that happened afterwards. To me there were just too many holes in the story, but it was still really good. Just not the best explained or entertaining time travel I've ever read

Susan Fox does a masterful job of character development in describing the actions as well as the emotions each is experiencing at the time. Written in first person, the book felt as if a good friend was relating her life to me, resulting in my feeling a personal intimacy with the story line. The author did all this with humor, emotions that were honest and believable, and a charming contrast between the culture mores of today and the Civil War Era. I'm definitely saving this book to reread on another rainy weekend! Absolutely DELIGHTFUL!
I just finished reading "Traveler" a few hours ago and couldn't wait to put my two cents in. I love history, I love romance, I love time travel books. This was a geat combination, I didn't want the book to end but I could hardly wait to find out how everything worked out, and the pieces of the puzzle fit together. This is the first book I've read by this Author, it definetly won't be the last. I was actually holding my breath when Meg found Shelby reading her diary!!!
This book goes VERY fast. I read it in one sitting and could not put it down. I loved the idea of Shelby's boyfiend, Rory, and Carter's wife, Meg (that element alone made some heavy tension). The romance between these two sizzles. I don't usually like books written in the first person, but this one is exceptional and definitely a "keeper."
Elaine Fox has created two of the most personable characters and placed them in the MOST dramatic perdicament. I loved this book. Ms Fox has so much talent! Thanks for a wonderful read.
Strolling through a Civil War battlefield park and musing over her uneventful life, businesswoman Shelby Manning is shocked when she encounters confused soldier Carter Lindsey, who has been transported from the past.

(Book from the Heart)

(believe in your dreams)

(Excellent reading, beautiful love story.)
Heart of the Druae transcends space and time and reaches for what is best in all of us. To simply classify it as a "romance novel" is to miss the profound message woven trough the fabric of the book. Our modern lives have many conveniences and benefits but the price we have paid is our disconnection to the universe and our fellow travelers. Dana Lyons shows that there is an inner light that shines within each of us and needs to be shared with the world. I bought this book and read it the same day. I cried at the end but not for the story but for the fact that it had come to the end and I desperately wanted it to go on forever. My only warning: if you decide to get this book do not to have anything planned for the evening you receive it because those plans will be cancelled.
Heart of the Druae was a book that spoke from the heart. I could not put it down once I started to read it. The Author caputered the true meaning of what it is to love so much that you were willing to sacrafice your heart for the good of the person you love. I can not wait to read more from this Author and see where she takes me next.
If you know and live The Secret, this book is for you. The writer takes you to a place that we all know we should be. I could not put the book down because I was captured by the characters their passion, and commitment. You will laugh and cry (enjoy).
Kassandra

Fascinating history,a must for your friends,could not put down....can't wait to read her next book,she's truly diferent and interesting.You're transported into a whole new dimension.
He longed for someone he'd never even met. For lone wolf archeologist Eric Beck, love has always been out of reach-something he's been searching for since the day he was born, never knowing where to look. But on an unexplored hill near Stonehenge, something calls to him. Someone calls to him. And on the day of the summer solstice, his entire existence is about to change . To love him would set an unthinkable destiny in motion. She was Aydyn. Powerful. Beautiful. Druae. Living long before Eric's time and bound by sacred duty to see through a prophecy that could mean the end of her people. With Eric's arrival through the stone circle, a passion is unleashed-a love written in the stars and designed to reveal the fate of the Druae. "Dana Lyons has woven a fascinating cast of characters from two worlds into an intriguing tale of love and duty... A wonderful time-travel that brings together destiny-crossed lovers and an ancient tribe in an intriguing way." RITA award-winning author, Dianna Love Snell

(Review as given to Mary J. Dressel from COFFEE TIME ROMANCE . com)

(An intricate portrait of two diverse periods in time)

(Review for Mary J. Dressel)
Ms. Mary J. Dressel has written a beautiful, compelling love story, full of treachery and mystery. Eryn's attempts to come to terms with her husband's departure make her a lonely soul, but her visions speak of a happier time with a different man, one whose embrace is both strange and familiar. Uriah's determination to make her remember makes him scary and intense. I loved the notion of time-travel, and Ms. Dressel's prose makes this book hard to put down.

Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance
Reviewer for Karen Find Out About New Books

A beautiful, red haired woman consumed with grief is led through a portal in time and a new era begins. . . She is found wandering the streets in dated clothing by a young woman named Beth. She knows only that her name is Eryn. Her pictures are posted by the media. When no one claims her she is taken in by Beth's parents. She marries Taylor Sterling and they have twin daughters, one who looks like her and the other who doesn't resemble her or anyone in Taylor's family. . . After twenty years of marriage Taylor disappears without a trace. While driving her daughter to college in another state, they encounter a dense fog, Eryn being intensely afraid of fog. . . While looking for a place to stay, she notices an old book store, which she knows she will return to later. They stop at a beautiful place called the Enchanted Inn. As Eryn parks, she has her first encounter with the past. She looks in the rear view mirror she sees a scene from a bygone era. When she looks again, it is gone. The owner of the inn is Uriah Prescot, a tall, handsome man with long blond hair and sparkling amber eyes. Uriah is very interested in Eryn. The next day, she goes to Enchantment to the book store. She finds a book that foretells the future, saying she will be happy again and also a very old painting that looks as she must have as young girl. . . Emmet the book store owner is very secretive about his back room. Could there be answers to her missing seventeen years? On returning home, Eryn and Beth go through Taylor's things in the basement. Beth finds a picture she hides from Eryn of Taylor with a blonde woman on his lap. They find that Taylor was planning a trip to Enchantment to purchase a book for Eryn at Emmet's bookstore but Taylor but never returned. . . Eryn and Beth return to Enchantment and find the bookstore burned. But who would burned the bookstore and why? Eryn goes back to the burned book store and finds an old picture album. Eryn slips through the portal in time to 1882 and finds pieces to the mystery. Eryn and Beth are on their way to the hospital to talk to Emmet when Beth's car stops. Uriah grabs Eryn and takes her to a cabin far out into the hills. For weeks he talks to her, hikes through the hills with her, and at night she dreams of a man with amber eyes from another time. Fill in the dots, answer the questions and the truth will be yours! Ms Dressel has painted an intricate portrait of two diverse periods in time and a love that connects the two. Definitely a five star read.

~1882
Two young souls who loved more than ever thought possible...separated and lost to each other beyond all concepts of time.....

~Present day Eryn Sterling is a woman abused and twice shy. Taking her daughter to a college in the town of Enchantment, a routine trip to a bookstore will set her life in a backward motion in ways she never thought possible. Uriah Prescot is a man fueled by nothing less than desperation and determination. He uses methods some may consider quite underhanded to claim the woman who left him more than a lifetime ago...a woman who remembers nothing of him or his claim of their undying love. Eryn is too busy worrying about the disappearance of her less-than-worthy husband to give Mr. Prescot a second thought. Her body, however, betrays her with remembrances of its own. She does not understand the visions that plague her...visions of a time long past. Eryn wonders...could it be? What should be? Is Uriah a rogue or my salvation?

And what of her husband? A man she has spent nineteen years with is not so easily dismissed.

Husband or no- it is not long before Eryn becomes bewitched by Uriah's captivating spell. She softens toward him despite her unwillingness to believe the unbelievable. Uriah remains frustrated that she will not accept him at face value, but continues his patient "courtship", knowing full well that her devotion in the end can be more precious than the value of any gems....if only she would listen to her heart and trust. As memories slowly return to Eryn, she eventually must make a choice. A choice of a life with a man from the past she loved beyond all comprehension many years ago, or a choice in the here and now that includes her best friend, and her two daughters-people she dearly loves and could never leave. Not even if they wonder if Eryn might have taken a ride too many on the Looney Express. Not to mention that nasty husband of hers... Where was he? The truth of the matter of the deadbeat husband and the consequences of Uriah's desperate actions has finally caught up with them, and threaten to tear them apart. Can their newfound love withstand such dire state of affairs?

All the while~embers of passion are never far from the surface and threaten to explode between Uriah and the love of his life. Eryn, despite her better judgment, sets out to seek the truth, an end to their story. The end she seeks will bring their lives~a century and twenty years worth~ full circle. Neither Eryn, nor Uriah expect the maelstrom of events that will unfold from her timeless quest. Will these events bind them together for all time, or cause them to pay the ultimate price? At the end of this extraordinary, passionate trek, where will they remain for always? Will it be in the times of Internet, Chevrolets, and fast food? Or will it be in the times of a handshake and simplicity? Will they ever truly find their way home?

As a reader, I am extremely particular about what I read. Out of the next fifty books I will purchase, perhaps only about ten will fulfill my expectations. Mary J. Dressel not only met my expectations, she has exceeded them with her novel "Visions of Enchantment". Where do I begin? Her fascinating prose and detail took my breath away. A simple touch, smile, or tear made me feel Eryn and Uriah's passion, joy, and melancholy. Mary has written sensuality in a way where no one can deny the power of physical attraction. Believe me, I have read countless time travel romance novels, and it is a rare occasion when I find a novel that mesmerized me as much as Ms. Dressel's. "Visions of Enchantment" will make you sit up and take notice. Her characters come to life more with each turn of the page. So realistic they are; you may find yourself getting up to look out the window with high expectations of your own Uriah coming to find you!

Kudos to you, Mary J Dressel, for a book well written! You have no problem whatsoever finding the heart and soul of romance. On a scale of 1-5, I give you five full bottles of Dr. Pepper! Needless to say, I love Dr. Pepper.

Meloni Cassidy Author of "Everlasting Journey" www.freewebs.com/afinerosesheis





Uriah Prescot, the handsome hero, came through the confines of time to wait for his sweet Eryn. It was a fateful foggy night that led her back to him. Back to a town she didn’t remember. Back to a time and a man she had only seen in visions…visions of enchantment. When they meet, Uriah loves her as much as he did on the day she left him twenty years ago, twenty years plus a century! Eryn Sterling didn’t even know he existed. In a little log cabin, with the beautiful Allegheny Mountains as a backdrop, Uriah tries to convince her that she loved him a century ago. Does he try a little too hard sometimes? Will his persistence drive her away as she tries to come to terms with the truth? Or will she discover he is the only love that can ever be, her forever love?

(An Exciting Beginning to a New SF Romance series)

(Worth a read if you like Sci-Fi romance)

(Just Rotten!)

(fluff)
I thought it started off pretty interesting, then went slowly downhill. It all begin to go sour for me when her suit would stay transparent. I kept waiting for the bad 1970s porn music to kick in. Things really got bad for me when it got to the point that the heroine could not possible make a mistake. She miraculously becomes a filthy rich with little to no effort. The author's logic for this? Oh, well, you see, she worked a few months for a business mogul as his bodyguard. Oh? Really? Then there must be thousands of filthy rich bodyguards out there who have done the same. Right? Oh, no? Hmm...I wonder why not? Lastly, I cannot stand when an author decides to make a couple fall madly, and I do mean MADLY in love with each other because they had sex. Sex does not equate love. Overall, I'm disappointed.
Tessa Camen is a woman of skill, and the Secret Service Special Agent in charge protecting the President of the United States. During a public address Tessa recognizes a potential threat and throws herself bodily upon her leader. As shooting and the resultant pandemonium ensues, Tessa removes the President from the scene. Her maneuvers are to no avail, because as their car leaves the scene it becomes clear that they have been betrayed by one of their own. Tessa's last thought as she throws herself in front of the bullet meant the President is that she's failed in her duty.

Tessa awakens to find herself naked in the arms of a hunk. She's pretty sure she's died and gone to heaven but her first thought is for the life of her president. Kahn informs her that her quick action had saved the president in that instance, but that in fact she has been dead more than 300 years. He tells her that seconds before the assassins bullet would have killed her, she had been transported to the future and that the current government of Earth had chosen her as their best candidate to perform a challenge that would win aid for their now polluted planet. Success would also win full membership in the Federation for his own world which had been mostly destroyed by nuclear warfare. That was to be his reward for training her for "The Challenge". All he had to do was to bring out her psi ability. Tessa is skeptical of the whole scenario and speculates that this could be a terrorist brainwashing tactic. Time travel wasn't possible and she certainly didn't have any psi ability.

Kahn is disgruntled at having to train a woman to perform the challenge. Women on his planet were protected and respected. Bring out a person's psi required them to be highly frustrated, and he would have to use different methods on Tessa than he would on a male contestant. The method went was totally counter to his own beliefs. Rather than using his considerable combat skills he would have to frustrate her sexually but, he knew that the needs of his world must come before his personal integrity.

However distasteful the training would be, Tessa fit all the criteria. She was selfless, a virgin, and had no living relatives, something which had complicated previous challenges. But Khan hadn't taken into account that Tessa was not a docile or obedient Rystani woman. She was a warrior. Rather than frustrate her and bring out her psi, his methods make her quite brazen. It isn't long before Kahn realizes that he's met his match and that in order for her to succeed in the Challenge he's going to have to adapt as much as she does. A change of tactics is definitely in order.

Of course no good science fiction romance is complete without and evil enemy to make the quest more challenging. Jypeg is evil alien with a vendetta against Khan. He had killed Khan's wife in a raid on Rystan and bore the scars of Khan's fury. The scars were a subject of mirth on Jypeg's planet and he will do anything to destroy Khan for the insult, even if it means breaking the laws of the Federation by interfering with the Challenge.

The cast is rounded out with Dora, a sentient computer, with an affinity for Tessa, and sex on the brain. She stirs the pot by providing the information Tessa needs to deal with her circumstances, often to Kahn's complete aggravation.

As the two cultures collide, Tessa and Khan will find much to admire and respect in each other's customs. The greatest challenge after all is of the heart. When you throw an alpha male and an alpha female together there are bound to be fireworks, and that's what makes this story so much fun to read. Sparks fly as the two go from being combatants to becoming soul mates. The sexual tension is palpable, but the best part of all is the love and respect that Tessa inspires in Kahn and his people simply by being herself. She is a being unlike anything they've ever encountered but her courage and heart will be a lesson for them all. The story ends with a preview of the sequel, "The Dare," and I suspect that Dora may just get a chance to try her feminine wiles out on a real man after all. The result is bound to be hilarious. I can't wait. --- Reviewed for PNR Reviews

I really truly wanted to hate Susan Kearney's "The Challenge." To my consternation, it was written rather well and the story was genuinely interesting. At the end of the story I found that I did not hate the story so much as I loathed the hero of the book for being such a "me big strong man, you weak woman" kind of guy. In the end, I not only loved the hero, I was rooting for the little bugger. Of course, the sex scenes helped. I mean if I saw those same scenes depicted in a movie I'd likely die from laughing so hard. But in the moment they were . . . appropriate. You have to read it to understand.
I've read my fair share of scifi romances that I have just loved to bits, but this book was an utter sham. It wasn't even a bodice ripper with laser guns, just bland and utterly unbelievable. The universe it's set in doesn't make a bit of sense and the characters are the archtypes of the romantic leads. Pacing in this novel was poor. Some parts were so silly, I had to laugh out loud and roll my eyes. I give it one star because the grammar was good.
Frankly, I'm embarrassed to associate with this book, and I expect better out of an author who claims to be a "USA Today bestselling author." If this were the author's first or second book, or first major release, sure this'd be great. But...

"The Challenge" is fluff, silly premise with a futuristic setting and a world setting entirely ridiculous. The back cover of the book is spot on for setting and plot. Woman with no psychic powers teleported to the future to take a one person challenge from alien powers, where winning will save the Earth. A man from another planet must awaken her psychic powers using erotic teasing -- his own world is also at risk. Throw in spanking, bondage, see-through clothing (hers), an over-the-top control freak hero, and a few inconsistent premises (virginity a must until it becomes inconvenient). The leading man is so obnoxious, that I don't understand why she doesn't murder him in his sleep.

There is one bright spark, which is that the main female lead doesn't ever get caught up in anger over past events or things that (constantly) don't go her way. She quickly accepts the situation, takes enjoyment where she can, doesn't fight against the odds to get her own way, and doesn't ever hold a grudge. I wish I could be more like that.

She was shot protecting the president, and woke up naked, in the arms of a hunk...

A hunk named Kahn, who told Secret Service agent Tessa Camen an outlandish story about traveling through time, saving the world, and a Challenge only she can accept. Kahn offers her proof she can't refute: Tessa has been brought forward through time to save Earth by winning an intergalactic challenge.

Kahn only has a few weeks to train Tessa to use the psi-abilities he insists she has. He is confident in the success of a time-honored method that uses sexual frustration to bring out her powers, but Tessa is dubious. She's a martial arts expert and can fight her way through anything, but she's never had much luck with emotions.

Luckily for Earth, Kahn can be very convincing...

It is the family vacation of a lifetime. A trip on a genuine wagon train headed west across the Great Plains of Kansas. The brochure promises adventure, realism and romance, but it says nothing about the possibility that your entire caravan of more than forty twenty-first century pioneers could become unwilling participants in a REAL trek west; a trip that is destined to take place in the year 1845; a trip that will test your stamina and courage as you cross endless deserts, towering peaks and raging rivers. Add to that a prairie fire and a ghostly caravan of immigrants who trudge through your circled corral of wagons and disappear into the endless void of a night sky. Then suddenly, gun shots. The cry of snarling wolves, and a man dressed in buckskin. He identifies himself as Luke Skinner, the most infamous wagon pilot ever to cross the Great Divide. He's the crazy one, right? He and his wagon train of four hundred determined immigrants are the ones living in the past. Or are you?
