Sensuality: 7
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

...THE MORE I WANT YOU...,
By
This review is from: The More I See You (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a light-weight time travel, historical romance novel that is laced with humor. While the writing is somewhat pedestrian and there is little character development, the story can carry the day, despite some of the historical detail being a bit questionable. The reader need only suspend disbelief to get some enjoyment out of this whimsical book.When Jessica Blakely, a modern day miss, finds herself mysteriously transported in time to thirteenth century England, little did she know that it would be there that she would meet the man who was to be the love of her life, Richard De Galtres. He is a noble knight who has hardened his heart against love due to his harsh upbringing by a brutal father, until fate conspires to have Richard and Jessica meet and fall in love. How they overcome their differences, as Richard learns to cope with a modern woman and Jessica learns to cope with a medieval man, makes for a story that those who like reading time travel, historical romance novels will enjoy.

lighthearted- 100% flimsy on the time travel aspect,
By A Customer
This review is from: The More I See You (Mass Market Paperback)
I felt this author cashed in on the popularity of Diana Gabaldon's exceptional Scottish Time Travel romance series. The time travel piece was ridiculous. Wish Upon A Star... and poof you're in 1260 Scotland. Give me a break. It was a very lightweight insubstantial novel. Nowhere near the depth of plot or character development of Gabaldon.Nice tale, cute love story, rather unlikeable hero. I enjoyed the book, but it does not stand up to the Gabaldon series if that is what you were hoping for.

I Give it a perfect 10!,

This review is from: The More I See You (Mass Market Paperback)
IF your tired of annoying romances with dead plot lines and card board characters, the Lynn Kurland and THE MORE I SEE YOU is the book for you. When this book comes to an end, you'll wish that Richard De Galtres was yours. He is a grumbly, rough on the edges, sexy Knight. He and Jessica will make you laugh, cry, and they'll bring a smile to your face. Give it a chance. This book was great. also try other Kurland books, i swear you'll never want to read anything but Ms Kurlands books.
