Past Storm and Fire

She wrote herself into history. Will she sample the sensual spoils?

Val Masterson longs for a taste of passion. With a loveless husband and a soul-sucking job, it’s no surprise when a bump on the head gives her vivid dreams of life as a powerful heroine. Losing herself in rugged fantasies with two twelfth-century Icelandic brothers, she’s shocked when her smoking-hot fictional men vie for much more than her hand…

Dismayed and horrified when the siblings’ father tries to make her his concubine, Val’s imagination runs riot as the sexy times start to heat up. But when her life in the physical world crumbles, she fears it may be time to choose a bed and sleep in it.

In a cold land she’s not sure is real, will she find the warmth her body desires?

What’s remarkable about this book is the skillful world-building and how the author switches from Val’s perspective into a whole new story through the novel she’s writing as an escape from her rapidly disintegrating reality and problem-filled, mundane life. This is a love story within a love story, and quite ingenious as one smoothly transitions into the next. The result is a marvelous and multi-layered historically and culturally rich romance, set in two countries, in two radically different time periods.
