How do YOU rate this book?
Two enemies left standing on a blood drenched battlefield. Who will take the as yet unclaimed land for their own?
Ofeig Nabboddrson, a warrior from his youth up, is determined to claim the rich land now stained with blood as his. The only thing standing in his way is a magnificent Valkyrie, a woman who he has seen only in battle and who is called ‘The Protector’.
Eva Samsdottir, an extraordinary woman who singlehandedly saves the children of her village from slavery amidst a deadly raid. Unbeknownst to her a bigger battle awaits her in a Time not her own. Will she have the courage to survive the future?
EXCERPT
Ofeig walked Eva to her door. It was a long walk, due to a local drug dealer having set up shop in the elevator. He refrained from breathing the first few flights of stairs, but as he had the first time, by the fourth floor, he had to breathe or pass out.
Yet unlike the last time he made this trek -- what, just four or so hours ago -- he now knew why she lived in squalor.
Every penny she earned went to her schooling and to the women's shelter.
Kat would love Eva should they ever meet, he mused, for they were kindred spirits.
She peeked at him through thick lashes. "You really don't have to walk me all the way to my door." He wanted to kiss her so bad he ached.
It was clear that she was nervous, her hand shook as she fumbled with the keys. He took the heavy key chain from her and slipped the key into the first lock, the next key into the second, and lastly the third key and he turned the knob, pushing open the door.
As soon she stepped over the threshold, he gave into the temptation and kissed her.
Her response was instant and passionate.
Firm curves melted into him and had his body tighten like a bow ready to be loosed. Heat, his, hers, seeped through clothing and seared skin.
He relished the taste of her, the scent, and the feel. Of their own accord his hands caressed the slim column of her neck, inching their way into her hair, upsetting the pins holding it in place. Silken gold locks slipped through eager fingers as he gently held her head within the palms of his hands.
She sighed into his mouth and it was almost his undoing.
To his delight her fingers, with hesitant determination, clasped his shoulders, then slid, much the way his own had but a moment ago, over the straining cords of his neck to at last rest on the back of his head, their movements brushing the short hair and causing goose bumps to cascade over his skin. Somehow they had moved from outside her door, to inside the dim entryway.
With a well-aimed foot he closed the door without their lips or bodies breaking contact.
He slid open his eyes, not familiar with her apartment and not wising the moment to be spoiled by the two of them tumbling over a piece of furniture.
She had not left any lights on, but through a gap in the thread bear curtains at the only window and a pair of sad looking ferns hanging in front of the curtains, a neon sign from across the street filled the room with a dull glow.
He hated that she lived like this, all but in poverty. He admired and respected why she lived thusly. And more than anything he wanted to give her the world on a silver platter.
Nay, he corrected himself as he devoured her lips, more than anything in this world, he wanted to give her his heart on a golden one.
"The characterization is the richest part of the story... "Through a Viking Mist" is a heart-warming read which demonstrates that the power of love cannot be held captive by time."

"There is plenty of sword play, and murder, mystery and intrigue. However, there is also plenty of good-old-fashioned romance and sexual attraction... Don’t let the “Book Four” scare you. If you haven’t read any of the other three (as I have not), you will still understand the plot, follow the characters, and really enjoy this book."

"If you like time-travel, honorable men and the kick-butt women who love them, don't miss Tami Dee's Mists of Time series. The author has done a wonderful job with the fourth and final book of her Mists of Time series. I thoroughly enjoyed the sweet romance of Eva and Ofeig. It was great also to see the other couples from the previous 3 books and how their lives have changed "through the years." The challenges Eva and Ofeig face and overcome make me believe in love again. I look forward to reading more books by this great author! "

"As with many other time travel stories, I often wonder how this will be handled as getting it wrong can really throw the reader. Ms Dee handles the time travel well and is also able to provide a reason for the travellers and their appearance in the different times so that they don’t meet their future or past being. This is not the case for one of the characters who meets her young self when she comes back to the 900s but it doesn’t seem to be an issue. I enjoyed this story and would love to read the stories of the other brothers to see how it all connects."
