REVIEWS
From Terri
Brisbin author of THE QUEEN'S MAN. . .
"In her latest book,
LORD OF THE MIST, Ann Lawrence has woven an irresistible
tale of honor and betrayal, loss and redemption, and
the power of love."
From BORDERS bookseller
Linda Cutler Smith . . .
"LORD OF THE MIST is
an original, witty and sensual (in every meaning of
the word) love story. Although set in medieval times,
the characters, situations, heartaches and triumphs
are timeless. You will care about these characters,
and take them into your heart. Overcoming seemingly
impossible odds, the hero and heroine remain true to
their self-imposed rules of personal honor, yet Ms.
Lawrence succeeds in bringing them together in a twisting,
turning, and compelling tale. Run, do not walk to your
favorite bookstore (hopefully Borders!) for this fine
read!"
From reader Margy W. winner of
an advance reading copy of LORD OF THE MIST . . .
"I received the arc of
LORD OF THE MIST several weeks ago, read it immediately
and OMG was it fabulous!!! I tend not to read many historicals
but this was great. Very true to the time period. It's
a good thing I wasn't born during that time...I would
have been put to death at a very young age. *eg* [LORD
OF THE MIST] was a great read and the first time I've
won anything!! I'm still smiling!!"

"With a plot as detailed
as treasured tapestry, Ms. Lawrence continues to seduce
us into her opulent world of strong, admirable characters
and a story that embodies the best of the romance
genre. The brutal world of the medieval knight struggling
for freedom to love who he likes is brought to exquisite
life and guarantees you won't sleep until you finish
reading!"
From Suzanne Coleburn of the Belles
and Beaux of Romance. . .
"There are more
darn twists and turns and surprises in this book. In
the back of my romantic mind, I was hoping there would
be some way that Cristina and Durand could be together,
and of course, I'm not telling how it all comes out.
As in LORD OF THE KEEP, Ms. Lawrence does a fabulous
job of taking ordinary women with special skills and
getting them entangled with the spectacular heroes."
Suzanne "Durand Can Come Out of the Mist and Capture
Me Now!" Coleburn
From Betty Cox of New and Used
Books. . .
Highly recommended!
"LORD OF THE MIST is a
wonderful read written by one of the very best of
today's talented authors. All of the characters are
well developed and the characters the author has used
from England's turbulent history add to the richness
and appeal of the story. In the author's words, LORD
OF THE MIST is 'a story of love and lust, honor and
betrayal.' Like its predecessor, LORD OF THE KEEP,
this book is a definite keeper. "
From Leslie Tramposch of ParaNormalRomance/PNR.
. .
"Ann Lawrence has shown her versatility
as a writer, alternating between a virtual fantasy series
and her medieval historical romances. The common denominator
between the two is the strength or her heroines, and
the courage of her heroes, as they fight seemingly insurmountable
odds to grab the brass ring."
From Carol Carter of Romance
Reviews Today
"This is a tale of good
versus evil, and features enemies, treachery and political
intrigue. Ms. Lawrence takes you into the Middle Ages
when kings ruled, and a rage or a whim could destroy
life. LORD OF THE MIST is a superbly written piece of
fiction that takes place during the time of King John's
reign and brings that period of history right into your
home. Find a cozy place and treat yourself to a wonderful
time with the LORD OF THE MIST, the second medieval
written by Ann Lawrence, and I hope not the last."
