kommer älska Anmäl dig till LibraryThing för att få reda på om du skulle tycka om den här boken. Wow having no smut is refreshing! I realy liked the bantering in this book! Though if I was her I would never have given up chocolate, well maby for the right guy => ( )This is the book that introduced me to the genius that is Lynn Kurland and the time travel genre of romance. After reading this book, I realized that this is the genre that I want to write for. Jessica is a American girl, that gets talked into going on a date to a castle party. After relaxing with a bit of chocolate and some great music, she wakes up to realize that not only is she in a different place, but a different time. Both of the characters are wonderfully believable and endearing. Jessica is so spunky and cute that I just adored her! And the ending is truly sweet. It's truly hard to give a good review for this one without giving too much away. Still to this day one of my favorite books. tender; medieval time travel; modern day woman travels back to the medieval times; funny; should read again I am a big fan of Lynn Kurland's and this is my favorite of her books. Great story and believable characters - contemporary female meets medieval man and the sparks fly! inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

Jessica Blakely appears to have it all as composer-in-residence at a prestigious university. But what she really wants is a husband and family. On a trip to England, Jessica walks in an estate garden and wishes on a star for a "fair and gallant knight... a man to love me at least as much as he loves himself." Within moments fog rolls in, and when it lifts the garden is gone and she's swept up by an armored knight, narrowly escaping being trampled by a mounted hunting party. Richard of Burwyck-on-the-Sea hates having to be chivalrous, but as leaving the lovely woman isn't an option, he carries her home with him.
The fact that Jessica is far, far from Manhattan takes only a little while to sink in, as does the realization that this bold, brash knight is the man for her. But for Richard, whose own dreams of happiness were beaten out of him as a child, it takes a little longer to accept that Jessica is the mate that fate and time have sent him. But even if Jessica wants to stay in 1260 England with her battle-hardened knight, will the forces that drew her to him across time allow her to remain? And if Richard gives his wary heart into Jessica's keeping, can he be sure she won't carry it away with her into the future and leave him alone?
Kurland has a talent for mixing the pageantry of medieval England and the romance of knightly chivalry with the gritty reality of everyday life. Add a brooding hero and a feisty heroine, a plot that avoids cliches, and a unique voice from Kurland that's downright charming, and you have The More I See You. --Lois Faye Dyer
