customer 's review (Page turner that I couldn't put down!)     I have never reviewed a book before, but wanted to today for this book. The author was able to convey an understanding and awe of history, cultures, nature, beautiful scenery and values all in the context of a beautiful story of courage and love. The hero and heroine both learn to fight for what they have found yet are willing for the other's best. An anthropologist becomes fascinated with a native culture and though finds what would bring her great career advancement and fame, finds that love can be greater than all. Thank you for a wonderful story! Out of the Mists of TimeWhen she first came to the sacred tribal lands in the California wilderness, anthropologist Tory Kent paid little heed to the tales of a mystical warrior keeping watch there. But then a dark figure appeared through the mists before her -- and suddenly the unimaginable became reality. Wherever --whenever-- he had come from, the one called Loka was truly a man, and he awakened a need within Tory that could scarcely be denied. For he had returned, after a century in the shadows, to claimher-- the woman destiny had promised only to him. Though entangled by undeniable passion, each walked a path seemingly impossible to weld together. For Tory was tied to the present. And Loka was bound by an age-old promise to protect his people's legacy . . . even at the cost of his own life.

(Odin Stone)    
(Review by Tammy from Fallen Angel Reviews)    It started out interesting but I grew tired of it the more I read. I was annoyed with Anna always being weak and tired. She had psychic dreams and always seemed to wake up tired. She would skip breakfast, be late for work, and then be faint at work from lack of food. Frequently her knees were wobbly because of her fears. She was living in poverty, down on her luck in almost every way imaginable. She couldn't keep a job because she would go into trances when she touched an object that had psychic vibes. For example, in a store, when someone handed her money that had once been involved in a robbery/murder, she went into a trance, scaring her boss, and she was fired. Her apartment had no refrigerator or stove. Her car was a junker with only one door that worked. Her landlord wanted sex. Her ex boyfriend finds her and steals her car so she has to walk to work and is late.
The good part of her life starts when Simon, an antiques store owner, sees her gift and hires her to evaluate the authenticity of antique pieces - the perfect job for her. He is ok with her trances and weaknesses.
This current day story and a second story are told in a back and forth method throughout the book. The second story is about Simone, Anne and Elspeth, living a few hundred years earlier in England. Current day Anna has psychic dreams about the earlier people, and the readers know early on that Simon and Anna are reincarnated or somehow related to the earlier characters.
CAUTION SPOILERS:
What I did not like:
Anna lies to Simon frequently and about too many unimportant things. She said she ate when she didn't. She said someone borrowed her car when it was stolen by the ex boyfriend. He knew she had a few clients she did psychic work for, but when one client wanted to see her she lied to Simon about it. She wouldn't tell him about her dreams which were related to her and Simon. She did not tell him she was pregnant.
After Anna has sex with Simon, Cheryl tells Anna some lies which suggest that Simon doesn't want her. The lies cause Anna to leave her job and run away from Simon (my pet peeve: conflict due to inaccurate assumptions). In addition, Anna's ethics are terrible, she owes Simon a lot of money and decides not to stay to pay it off but to run away. When Simon finds her, he wants to talk, but Anna says no. She comes back but doesn't want to hear his truths instead of believing Cheryl's words. I was annoyed that the conflict was drawn out in this way.
The ending had me shaking my head with distaste. When he admits he loves her and she is confused, he thinks she doesn't want him. It appears that he plans to throw himself off the roof. She sees him and stops him. Then she is afraid somehow and flees, running toward the stairs and falls down the stairs, almost killing herself.
In the early story, I hated the reasons for the major plot line, the basis of the entire story. Anne loved Daffyd. Elspeth loved Simone. Anne decides to marry Simone because someone else wanted him. Simone realizes Anne his wife doesn't want him, but Simone refuses to acknowledge the truth, because he doesn't want to admit that he made a mistake by choosing the wrong woman to marry. I wasted my time reading this?
Believe it or not, there are still a few things I have not given away, which will leave something of interest for those who may wish to read the book.
Story length: 240 pages. Sexual language: strong. Number of sex scenes: 5. Length of sex scenes: 0.7 to 4.3 pages. Setting: current day US and England and a few hundred years earlier in England. Copyright: 2005. Genre: contemporary fantasy romance and historical romance. The legend is, that an oath made on the Odin Stone can never be broken.
Anna Lindstrom has been forced to turn her ability to psychically "read" emotions attached to inanimate objects into her primary source of income. When she is presented with a necklace from the Dark Ages to "read", she is overwhelmed by the most intense and powerful impressions she's ever received. In the wake of the visions and her now nightly dreams, she finds herself consumed with a quest to find another link to the past.
During her quest, Anna encounters the Simon Weston, the wealthy owner of one of the antique stores she searches in her quest. Instantly she's both attracted to and afraid of, the enigmatic and tortured Simon. When Simon offers her a job, she accepts and their relationship begins its many twists and turns.
This book is a terrific tale built on the legend attached to an ancient stone that once stood in the Orkney Isles. I'm particularly fond of stories that play off historic lore and this book absolutely sucked me in.
Ms. Morin has done a masterful job of weaving together the threads of this story's complex plot without losing the intense emotions of her characters. Anna's fears and self-doubt made her a character I wanted to cheer on while Simon's anguish and mystery had me mentally dissecting him on occasion.
The story included a mix of love, betrayal, loss and treachery that kept it moving at a fast pace throughout the entire book and never left me bored.
I had feared that the interweaving of the past and the present could easily become confusing, but I never lost track of when and where while reading Odin Stone. I was sucked into this story and couldn't put it down. I just had to finish it and see what was in store for Anna and Simon.
This one gets a place in my keeper file.

Anna has a gift that allows her to touch an object and see its history and she uses this gift in order to make a small living for a small group of customers. While reading a necklace for a client, Anna discovers that it is ancient and priceless with powerful emotions attached to it. She also sees that it was part of a set with matching earrings, but does not tell her client about them.
Anna starts having nightly dreams about the necklace that she does not always remember after awakening. She sees the woman who originally owned it and the man who had the necklace made especially for her, but cannot understand why the emotions effect her so strongly. Anna decides to search for the earrings on her own to see if she can get another reading off them, and is drawn to an antique store where she meets Simon. Anna is immediately attracted to Simon and takes him up on his offer of a job, even though she thinks that Simon is way out of her league.
Odin Stone is a fresh and original story of love, passion, and treachery that will have you glued to the pages. Anna is a strong woman who has had a hard life but does not believe in her own worth until she meets up with Simon and is given a chance to grow and prove herself. Simon is a man of mystery that keeps to himself most of the time but allows Anna in and tries to keep her close. I thought that Odin Stone was a fabulous story with strong in-depth characters and a smooth flowing plot that detailed the past as well as the present time without leaving anything out. I give this fascinating story 4 Angels and will be adding Marie Morin to my favorite authors list.
By Tammy Fallen Angel Reviews www.fallenangelreviews.com
Compelled by her gift of 'sight' to search for a link to the past, Anna crosses paths with Simon, a man with a dark and tortured past who is as much of an enigma to her as the visions that haunt her. Certain that she is way out of her league with a man as handsome, wealthy, and worldly as Simon Weston, as a moth to the flame, she is drawn to him irresistibly. But is it benign fate that draws her to him? Or a dark cycle of love, passion, betrayal, and devastating loss that can never be broken? Rating: Contains graphic sexual content, explicit language, and graphic violence.

Usually ships in 24 hours An aging and crippled Dick Marlowe stumbles on an old family heirloom that, when activated, mysteriously transports him back into the past where he witnesses his own birth. Using that same heirloom, an old antique tub, Dick returns to the present where he pieces together what must have happened and decides to use that tub in an attempt to change his past. A past that has resulted in him losing the girl he should have married and ruining his knee for life. To regain his `girl', which he now knows to be the love of his life, he must somehow influence his younger self not to throw her over for the easier girl he'd settled on for the wrong marriage. He cannot of course be himself when he goes back in time and so he intends to assume the identity of a long lost first cousin named Phil. A little older than Dick and presumably a little wiser. Using the tub then, `Phil' returns to the house where his mother, Nan, still dying of cancer, and his younger self, Dick, reside. Once there, he wangles an invitation to stay and sets out to somehow convince the know-it-all Dick, that Anne is far too special to lose. Not an easy job since Dick, the typical teenage male, is determined that Anne, if she really loves him, should prove it by having sex with him. Something Anne feels strongly is wrong. And so, full of hope, Phil does his best to change Dick's attitude. For if he can't change that attitude, Dick will surely break off the relationship and marry Marsha, far more malleable if decidedly the wrong choice!In order to test his theory that a change in the past will change the future, Phil sets out to avoid the football tackle that had crippled him for life. No tackle, no torn knee cap, hence no longer a cripple. Further complicating the plot, Phil finds that he must once again cope with what he now knows to be the unavoidable death of his Mother from cancer. A death that the know-it-all had taken far too lightly. But first and foremost, Dick must not be allowed to breakup with Anne. Which in turn means that Dick must not be allowed his birthday party where that breakup had occurred. No party, no meeting Marsha, no rotten marriage. Much easier said than done when Dick once again digs in his heels. Further complicating things for Phil, his time machine, the tub, is inadvertently sold by his Mother. He must recover it. No time machine, no return to his future and however successful in his various quests, there will be no way to enjoy those gains. But as time in Dick's past marches on, and the failures begin to multiply, help comes from unexpected sources in unsuspected ways. First the family doctor, in love with his Mother throughout the years, helps to bring the two boys closer together. And then Anne, sensing beyond her young years, fights hard for Phil against Dick. A strange triangle that. And lastly Nan, Phil's mother, dying in the hospital, has a talk with her `boys'.

customer 's review (Summer Lovin'A Blast!)    The Timeswept Summer anthology contains three delightful stories that are perfect reading for those lazy, crazy days of summer.Amy J. Fetzer's "Timeless Masquerade" turns up the heat (in the kitchen )with this sizzling, sensual romance. Two very unlikely lovers find that they have more in common than either one of them is willing to admit. Miss Fetzer's wicked wit and sly sense of humor enhances her vibrant characters who come to life on the pages of this highly-crafted and enjoyable story. Joyce Carlow's Mistress Of Time gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "Art Appreciation". Her cleverness, and craetivity keeps the readers turning those pages to find out what will happen next. Jean Wilson's Portarits in Time is a blast! Reuniting the past with the present and igniting a fuse that sends the sparks of the fireworks flying! Sometimes strange things happen in the summer. And sometimes, there's a spark of magic that flames into passion. Now, three beloved romance authors deliver a sizzling collection of time travel romances that will sweep readers up in the heat of the moment--and remind them how special love is when it blooms in the sensuous, lazy days of summer.

Usually ships in 24 hours In The Fairest Star, the third instalment of the Friends&Enemies trilogy, the world of France of 1599 unfolds once more as one of ambition, love, hatred, religious war and prejudice. All these confront the central figures of the story, Tommy of the twenty-first century and Eloise of the sixteenth century. Tommy and Eloise are now both the hunters and the hunted as they blunder through the conflicts of Church and family in pursuit of the priest, Drogo, who has publicly confessed to the killing of Eloise's mother, Eleonora of Narbonne. The action flits between the twenty-first and the sixteenth centuries, where the very different values create bewilderment and danger for both the hero and the heroine. Tommy is seen as a mouthpiece of the Devil as his mobile phone erupts into the year 1599; Eloise is seen as a witch as her pet rats, believed to have the gift of speech, threaten to condemn her to the stake. The book follows the pair as, attempting to flee from the clutches of the Inquisition, they pursue their quest for revenge on Drogo to a brutal but bittersweet end.

customer 's review (A charming time travel)   
(charming time travel romance)    When Nelwina desperately wishes to be anywhere but on the auction block as the unwilling participant during an 18th century wife sale she suddenly feels woozy and passes out, only to awaken in the 21st century. Passing through Ramsgil and playing the part of a tourist, Adam Warrick, the new Earl of Spenceworth finds himself the selected "buyer" of Jocelyn Tanner the "wife" up for auction. When he tosses the coin, and the "husband" catches it clumsily causing his purchased "wife" to get knocked unconscious, Adam feels obligated to take her to Spenceworth manor to make sure she doesn't suffer from a concussion.Returning to her childhood home should have been a relief. However nothing is as it seems for Nelwina. Wanting to stay at Spenceworth, she dives into her new life as she tries to help restore Spenceworth to its previous grandeur. Adam, dealing with a run down estate that sadly lacks finances has little time for romance, then, when his mother unexpectedly shows up and takes his patient under wing, is grateful to have Jocelyn Tanner to keep her occupied. However, every time Jocelyn insists her name really is Nelwina Honeycutt, Adam chooses to continually rack it up to her head injury. But he has a hard time explaining the fact that knows more about Spenceworth manor and gardens than any other soul. For Nelwina, living two-hundred years in the future wasn't what she had expected, nor acquiring another woman's body. The only problem is, how can she adapt to this life and keep from falling in love with Adam, knowing that the real Jocelyn is trapped in the past? Yet how could she leave the love she always yearned for? The long awaited sequel to SixPence Bride, Virginia Farmer weaves the charming tale of Nelwina Honeycutt. Some of the descriptions (for example of the loo) were humorous and I thought clever. With the changing of bodies between Jocelyn Tanner and Nelwina Honeycutt, this time travel is unique. Not only does Nelwina need to deal with learning new technologies totally foreign to her, she must come to terms with another woman's life. So join Adam and Nelwina on their bumpy little ride as they fall in love. Spenceworth Bride is a delightful tale. In 1799 Ramsgil, England, Haslett Ham places his wife Nelwina on the auction block accusing her of thievery. She tries to talk him out of the humiliation that both will suffer, but he just grins at her like she is a worthless waste of his time. All Haslett can think of his ridding himself of this bastard daughter of an aristocrat. Nelwina wishes to be anywhere but in Ramsgil, but an old gypsy warns her to beware what you wish for.Chicago based architect Adam Warrick has inherited Spenceworth and has flown to England to try to work the finances. He is taking part in one of the famous marriage auction reenactments and has drawn the role of buying the wife on sale. Adam buys Nelwina who everyone calls Jocelyn Tanner. As they fall in love, he wonders about her sanity and she questions whether he cherishes the Nelwina essence inside Jocelyn's body or the beautiful looking woman even as her American husband arrives to claim his wife. SPENCEWORTH BRIDE, the sequel to the award winning SIXPENCE BRIDE, is a charming time travel romance. The story line grips the audience from the moment a displaced Nelwina lands in the twenty-first century. As she struggles to adapt (though perhaps a bit too easily) while a bewildered Adam wonders what is going on, fans gain a wonderful tale. Readers will enjoy Virginia Farmer's latest winner, as Nelwina's tale is an entertaining novel. Harriet Klausner When Nelwina Honeycutt was taken to the block to be sold--a common enough plight for a "troublesome" wife in eighteenth-century England--she hardly expected to better her situation. The illegitimate child of a nobleman, her commoner husband a drunken sot, she could be sold for a sixpence.The man who bought her paid a full pound, though--and seemed blase about it! Stranger still, he called the sale a "re-enactment." Maybe it was that Nelwina had fallen and hit her head, but her clothes, her hair, her eyes: everything was unfamiliar. Two hundred years from the date she'd been born, only one thing was clear: Of the two men before her--Philip, who claimed to be her American husband; or Adam, the English lord of Spenceworth manor--all her heart wanted was to be Adam's one and only . . .

(Not the best) 
(A Good Book)   I dont want people to think that just because I gave this book a 2 star rating that it isnt worth reading. Its a nice simple book, with some pleasant characters, pleasant situations and a "happily ever after" ending. That is however a long winded way of saying this book is mediocre. The characters are nice to know but nothing about them compels you to read the book as quickly as possible. So many books I read, I simply can't put down and will pull an all-nighter if I'm extremely engrossed. This book was not good enough to forfeit my sleep...thats for sure. You learn to like the characters you are supposed to, and dislike the ones you aren't but nothing more. Even the sad background of the hero "Jesse" is merely grazed over and not fully explained until the end, meaning its too late to really fall in love with him. I also found the actual story quite disjointed. There was a lot of jumping around, back and forth that meant as a reader I just got frustrated. The jumps between Sarah, Deidre, Sam and Jesse were done so haphazardly that any feeling we have for the characters is soon lost beneath some extreme confusion. Lastly, the ending was so abrupt that I could only assume that Bruce was in such a hurry to finish the book that no closure was given and I'm left completely unfulfilled. If you have some spare time rent this from your library but otherwise, I'd turn to some more substantial reading.
