Rating:  - a "picky" romance reader
I've read over 100's of romances and so over the years I've become very picky about the romances I read. From a "picky" reader's perspective, therefore, I would have to say that, overall, Ms. Mathis has created a winner with "The Sea King." She brings a great new voice to the genre, she has well-developed characters, and her storyline is (for the most part) pretty engaging. My main complaint would be her dialogue: it often runs very trite. For example, in one of the first scenes of the book, ... Read More
Rating:  - Not Impressed
From the description I thought this book had so much potential. I was wrong, I did not enjoy this book at all. I skipped pages at a time and didn't miss a beat. The heroine drove me nuts, by letting her sister talk to her any kind of way but, had a lot of lip for the hero. This was not one of my favorite books but don't let my review stop you. What I found lacking you may enjoy.
Rating: - Possibly the best historical romance I've ever read.
I didn't have particularly high hopes for The Sea King, because somehow Viking stories usually end up hokey, cheesy and not too well written.

Rating: - What wicked games my false brother plays
I loved this book! The hero is sexy but tortured. The heroine is tortured but feisty. Nobody is innocent -- everybody is guilty of betraying somebody, and everybody gets betrayed at some point. There are so many plot twists, it is hard to see how the good guys will prevail. But they do! A perfect romance book -- put it in your "must read" pile. I would like to see more books from this author.
Rating: - Great Medieval Romance
I could not put this book down. I loved the medieval romance and knowing that "going Viking" could actually be loving and oh so romantic and not just crazy blood thristy savages. This was a great saxon/viking story.
