A Dangerous Warrior Held captive by a decadent-looking savage, Francesca DuVall spends every waking moment planning an escape for her brother, Marsh. But she never counted on falling in love with the man whose smoldering sapphire eyes cause her to tremble with unbridled passion. Ethan Gray, the man, is a curator at a famous museum . . . most of the time, that is. At other times, he's Meko, a savage warrior hurtled into the past to help his beloved people, the Cheyenne. A Rebellious Beauty Though their worlds are decades apart, Meko, can't resist the dark-haired, green-eyed beauty he kidnaps during a raid. A brutal, savage leader of the Dog Soldiers, he has many battles to fight to save his people, but none he wants to win more than the one that will capture Cesca's heart forever. From the windswept plains of Colorado and the harsh life of a Dog Soldier to the placid life of a curator, their love was fueled passion and kindled by destiny.

I highly recommend this story to all who entertain the possibility of time travel.,

This review is from: Where The Rain Is Made (Paperback)
Ethan Gray wakes up after spending three very uncomfortable nights in a jail cell. A bar fight in a little town in Montana left him bruised and sore, and he must face the judge in the morning. As Ethan tries to find a comfortable position on his narrow cot, the sheriff brings over a visitor. Stands-In-Light, the Cheyenne medicine woman, is standing in front of Ethan's cell, letting him know that, once again, the Sacred Council of Arrows needs his services. He has made a vow to do all he can to help his people, so Ethan transforms into a raven and makes his escape.
As Ethan stands before the Sacred Council, he realizes his next journey will be quite dangerous, possibly fatal for him and thousands of the People. He accepts the danger but has no idea that his fleeting vision of "a woman with hair the color of the magpie and eyes greener than pine needles" will change his life forever. This story was interesting. I was impressed with the way K. Celeste Bryan portrayed the different aspects of Ethan's character during his time with the Cheyenne. I felt the characters were well developed and realistic, and although this was a violent time in our history, the violence did not overwhelm the storyline. It was merely a part of the story, as common as clothing styles or food preparation. I liked this Where The Rain Is Made very much. The historical aspects were interesting and provided a different viewpoint than our high school history books. I could picture the villages, the people, and Ethan's transformations from the descriptions. I highly recommend this story to all who entertain the possibility of time travel.

This review is from: Where The Rain Is Made (Paperback)
It's been a while since I bought this book but I just found out how to review things, so here it is.
I absolutely loved this book!!! Can't say enough about how I enjoyed it. It satisfied me in so many ways - I love Native American stories, love time travel, love history - and I love it when the romance creates steam in my reading area! This was perfect in every way and will remain in my keeping for a long time.

History and Passion,
By Patricia Altner "PVN" (Patricia's Vampire Notes) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Where The Rain Is Made (Paperback)
While the novel Where The Rain Is Made has a lot of passion it also has a gripping, original plot not to mention well wrought characters. Ethan Gray is a time wanderer chosen by the Sacred Council of the modern world to take the knowledge he has gained in his studies of the Cheyenne and return to the mid 1800s when his people faced so much danger from the whites and had suffered so much at their hands.
That was a difficult, often brutal world. In graphic prose the author shows the difficult, tenuous life of the Cheyenne, demonstrates their point of view and the reasons for their hatred of whites. She does this without blinking. The brutality whites and Cheyenne are capable of is not ignored. In a raid by Meko (Ethan's name in the past) and his fearsome Dog Soldiers where many are slaughtered, he captures two prisoners, the beautiful Cesca and her young brother Marsh. It is through the lives of these three characters that the story is told. Cesca balks at becoming one with the tribe, but eventually acquiesces to her new life. Young Marsh finds the transition easier and wishes to go through the grueling ordeal that will allow him to join the Dog Soldiers. Meko faces a conundrum. His stay in the past can end at any time the Council decides, but he has fallen deeply in love with Cesca, and she eventually returns those feelings. Meko has vowed to find a way for them to be together although the odds against two people from different time periods is all but impossible. Where the Rain Is Made is an edgy,compelling story. It tells a very solid tale - one rooted in history.
