Watch the book trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZ_o4AbYH2Q Grier MacInnes buried three fiancés in the Black Death; soon she'll be replaced by her cousin's teen bride as Lady of Durness Castle. After two decades in Greenland, Rydar Hansen is desperate to return to Norway and reclaim his inheritance ~ if he still has one. Thrown together by a North Sea storm, they don't speak the same language. But apart from each other, they have no future. ***** "LOVING THE NORSEMAN has a lovely cast of characters, and a nice, cinematic quality to it. I also liked the balance Ms. Tualla creates in Ryder's character, allowing him to be vulnerable yet strong." ~ Grand Central Publishing ***** "A wonderful read. Kris Tualla gives you a strong heroine, a hero you can fall in love with, and a story that keeps you turning the pages. This is a keeper!." ~ Sarah Hoss, Author of Highland Dreams ***** The Black Death has decimated Scotland, wiped out most of Grier MacInnes’s family, and killed her chances for marriage three times. The only members of the MacInnes family left are her and twenty-year-old Logan, cousin and laird of Durness. A gifted healer, Grier spots two men in Balnakeil Bay outside the walls of Durness Castle during a horrific storm. One is already dead, the second is alive, but near drowning and dragging a broken leg. Grier and Logan pull Rydar Martin Petter-Edvard Hansen and his travel companion from the water. Grier sets Rydar’s leg and begins the healing process for the man who speaks only Norwegian, but soon learns enough Scottish to captivate Grier. With the town of Durness emptied of all young, viable men, Grier sees her life stretched before her as bleak and endless as a stormy winter sky over the North Sea. Her cousin will marry soon, and his fifteen year old bride will displace her. Not a lot to look forward to. Despite the strong attraction and admiration he feels for the strong and compassionate healer, Rydar is anxious to find his way to Arendal, Norway to claim his inheritance. Could he be the means for Grier to have the life she’s always dreamed of? Or will her Norseman sail away and leave her to play maid to the new Lady of the castle? Kris Tualla’s fourth book in the Hansen series delivers all the love, treachery and romance of the previous three. Loving the Norseman is a great read, and an enjoyable peek into yet another set of solid characters and their fascinating story. ~ Colleen Greene, Author of "A Run For Love" ***** I LOVED IT!! Kris Tualla has such a remarkable gift for not simply painting pictures with words but sculpting scenes that are vibrant and breathe fresh life, a true wordsmith. No tired old turns of phrase. It took me longer to read than I expected because I kept stopping to re-read bits that caught my imagination. Adding to the perilousness of the times, the love between Grier and Rydar is fraught with the snares inherent in the delicious differences between women and men. Love requires a willingness to appear the fool, in truth proving strength and courage. Brava!! ~Judy T, Avid Romance Reader
