Summary: A book worth reading
Review: I liked this book, and read it in a couple of days. It made me want to see what was going to happen next. If you want to read a book that goes straight to your heart, read Stolen Moments by Barbara Jeanne Fisher. . .It is a beautiful story of unrequited love. . .for certain the love story of the nineties. I intended to give the book a quick read, but I got so caught up in the story that I couldn't put the book down. From the very beginning, I was fully caught up in the heart-wrenching account of Julie Hunter's battle with lupus and her growing love for Don Lipton. This love, in the face of Julie's impending death, makes for a story that covers the range of human emotions. The touches of humor are great, too, they add some nice contrast and lighten things a bit when emotions are running high. I've never read a book more deserving of being published. It has rare depth. Julie's story will remind your readers that life and love are precious and not to be taken for granted. It has had an impact on me, and for that I'm grateful. Stolen Moments is written with so much sensitivity that it made me want to cry. It is a spellbinder. What terrific writing. Barbara does have an exceptional gift! This book was edited by Lupus specialist Dr. Matt Morrow too, and has the latest information on that disease. ..A perfect gift for someone who started college late in life, fell in love too late in life, is living with any illness, or trying to understand a loved one who is. . .A gift to be cherished forever.

Summary: ITS SOOOO GOOD YOU CAN READ IT IN A DAY! GUARANTEED!
Review: Susannah was 30 and alone. One day she saw a picture of the man that was her destiny. She bought the picture and a feather from a man that told her see was the one. She fell asleep that night and woke up in the year 1870. She fell in love with the Indian from the picture, Black Wind. They've been through so much together and when it seemed like the end for the 2 lovers, it had all just begun. They ended up in the 90's. They went back to see the man that sold Susannah the feather and it was Black Wind's uncle. The 3 of them went to a Lakota reservation and taught Lakota history. In the end, everyone lived happily ever after. If you love history and romance novels, you'll love this book. This book shows that love can overcome anything. Once you pick it up you'll never put it down

Summary: Romantic, mysterious, chilling, sensual, tragic, triumphant
Review: This book is all of those things and more.
Madeline Baker succeeds in making your own romantic fantacies come to life in this book. Her leading lady, Susannah, is such a real woman of the late 90's that you can almost pretend the story is about you. She has the same habits, likes and dislikes, hobbies, and tastes as you or any of your friends. She loves to read romance novels and dreams of meeting a "Mr. Right" like those in the stories. (Sound familiar?)Susannah attends a powwow in Orange county, CA. There, she meets an old indian who gives her an eagle prayer feather. He insists that she take it without paying for it, saying that it is meant to be hers, and that if she prays with it her dreams will come true. Susannah wakes up in an army camp in South Dakota, in the year 1870. There, she sees him for the first time. Tata Sapa (Black Wind) is a prisoner serving 3 years hard labor for stealing a cow to feed his people. He recognizes Susannah right away as the woman he had seen in a vision 6 years earlier. Susannah recognizes him as the indian who was in an old photograph she had purchased back in her own time period. Each night she sneaks to his cell, where they gaze at one another in amazement. Sparks fly and she helps him escape. This is only the beginning of the story. Now, the real adventure begins. Susannah and Black Wind travel around South Dakota. They make friends with an elderly white couple, rejoin Black Wind's Lakota tribe for a short time (Susannah isn't welcomed with open arms), marry in their own private ceremony, live privately near a waterfall, attempt to make peace between the Lakota and the "blue coats", and face imprisonment by the army together.
Will they escape prison and hanging? You'll have to read the book to find out.
These are just a few highlights of this amazing story. There is so much more. The book is 395 pages, and never once gets boring. The love scenes are very tame, but so romantic. Susannah, being a woman of the 90's, is not a doe- eyed virgin. She teaches Black Wind how to kiss like white people do. Black Wind is an eager student. The book involves many likable characters who make you smile, and plenty of "bad guys" to keep the story exciting.
Great read. You won't want to put it down. You won't want it to end.

Review: This story is the best. I started it one evening and didn't put it down til I was finished at 3 in the morning! It should be a movie that is for sure. I was completely drawn into the plot and felt like part of the story. I was catapulted back into history. Romance at it finest!
