review 1: Chloe is engaged to her best friend. her first heat is coming up, and she will have to have sex. the thought fills her with dread. Rafe is the Alpha Prince and will inherit after his father's death. Fenris pulls himself forward in time to find his fated mate. and he has decided Chloe is it, she will go back to his Viking timeline with him. and he will go to great lengths to get her there.I liked the story well enough. its a little different idea on the werewolf theme, and that is always a good thing. the plot was a little jumpy though, and there were whole scenes written from his AND her point of view. it got a bit repetitive. Chloe's reaction to being dragged back through time was a little too easy, and I feel there should have been more angst in her reaction. there is se... morex and violence, yes, but not enough to warrant me to rate it over 18. I'd say over 16. this is a prequel to the Alaska Princess series, but it also does not leave you hanging. there is a bit at the back which WILL leave you hanging, an excerpt of the first book of the Trilogy. Whether or not I will read them?? probably. will I PAY for them....probably not.one question though.....why is the man on the front of these books blue?!?!?!?
review 2: This is a nice shifter romance with historical and time travel elements that keeps things interesting & should keep you nice and warm in the winter holidays and the fact that it is free is a bonus! Chloe is a twenty five year old shifter who has not gone into heat yet when other female shifters have already done that and have been paired of with their chosen mates by the time they are twenty years old. Her fiancé Rafe is fast running out of patience and is pushing Chloe to take their relationship to the next level and stop avoiding the subject of sex & mating heat. But things soon get interesting when Fenris, a hot red headed, time traveling alpha Viking shifter with a deadly temper bursts into her world claiming this black beauty as his fated mate and demands that she go back with him to the 12th century. This alpha king is not about to take ‘NO’ and is determined to get his mate by fair or foul means. Well, you can't blame the guy, after all he is from a time when men were men and took reluctant women to their family cave (a village in Norway in the 12th century) kicking and screaming. So, it’s all good and perfectly legal especially when you have a hero with a hot rockin' bod, a lot of screaming orgasms, a dash or two of Stockholm syndrome, and a barrel full of cheeky loving extended family members... What else does a modern woman need anyway? Well I could be wrong but I’ll take modern conveniences & medicine any day! But for arguments sake, true love and soul mate beats all! Oh yeah!!I like the fact that our Viking hero has a sweet tender heart under his gruff exterior and all the huffing and puffing big bad wolf attitude hides a passionate man. It is the usual hero recipe with a side of quirky theme. I also like the fact that Chloe is a DIY domestic goddess on par with Martha Stewart because she likes making food, clothes and all manners of things from scratch, making her the perfect woman for a life in the 12th century. My only problem is that for the most part, she acts like a fearful teen what with the sulking, silent treatment and fear of offending others and lack of insight into her own needs and her sudden and complete personality overhaul towards the end feels a bit forced. Chloe's transition into Fenris's life is too easy and unbelievable, especially due to the serious unresolved issues between them. I can overlook all the minor annoyances except for one major issue, the retelling of the same scenes, from Chloe and Fenri's POV without any changes that enhances the story line or our understanding of the characters. Also, the werewolf element was a bit redundant here especially since our h/h don't shift and just appear to be more human than supernatural. Despite all the little niggles, I really enjoyed this story because it had my favourite themes: Time travel romance, werewolf’s, alpha Viking and interracial romance! What more could anyone ask for... Well maybe a dragon or two, some vampires and zombies... OK, so I’m being a bit greedy but I love my UF creatures. And this story did wet my appetite enough to try another book in this series. less
