- Terri Brisbin lives in the southern New Jersey suburbs, she spends her time being a married mom of three boys as well as a dental hygienist of hundreds.
After being a voracious reader all of her life and a writer for most of it (poetry, short stories, dental hygiene care notes and patient reports, etc.!), Terri found romance novels (again) in 1991 and began writing romance fiction in late 1994. Her first novel, 'Secrets in the Game' remains hidden in the bottom of her closet waiting for a good time to make an appearance. However, it was her second novel, A Love Through Time, that was her publishing debut in November 1998 from Jove Time Passages.
A three-time RWA RITA® finalist, Terri has sold more than 1.7 million copies of her historical and paranormal romance novels, novellas and short stories in more than 20 languages in 25 countries around the world since 1998. she’s been published by Berkley/Jove, Harlequin and Kensington Books. Active in several RWA local chapters, she currently serves on the Board of Directors of Romance Writers of America as a Region 1 Director.

Margriet Gunnarsdottir has lived in a convent for the past ten years and doesn’t wish to return home. Though she’s not a nun, she doesn’t trust Rurik or the men in his party, so she and her companion pretend to be nuns in order to protect themselves from unwanted advances. As the women journey north with the motley crew of Scottish and Viking warriors, Margriet realizes Rurik is an honorable man, but she continues to wear her nun garb to hide her swelling stomach—and the baby within.
Rurik and Margriet are likable, flawed characters. Love and romance bloomed slowly between them since lies and social status, and then the knowledge of her pregnancy, kept pushing them apart. The only sex scene is in the last chapter of the book, which was surprising.
I like Ms. Brisbin’s use of Scottish words. The description of the Orkneys and the Scottish countryside were beautiful, and the long, sometimes arduous journey north through Scotland seemed realistic. Ms. Brisbin really must’ve done her homework, so kudos for that!
Though I liked the story, I sometimes had a hard time following along due to the head hopping and the use of he/she, instead of names. I also found some of the details a little confusing (for instance, Rurik’s age doesn’t seem to match up to the years he’s been in exile). There are some unanswered questions as well, but none affected the main plot.
Overall, I enjoyed the world building and characters, and I’m sure fans of Viking romances would appreciate this book.
