When has Sandra Hill ever written a bad book in this series? NEVER! She just keeps getting better and better with her people and bring back old friends for you to catch up with. Madrene is finally going to come to this century, not that she knows it or knows that her family has all come to this time period. She thinks that she's getting away from a big whohow in the Middle Eastern desert and finds herself trapped in a small cave with yet another man, Ian. But unknown to her, she has managed to c...more
Ian MacLean is the baddest of the all. A the team leader of a group SEALs he lives for the adrenaline rush. The latest mission takes him to Iraq to free some hostages. On the mission he spots a cave and checks it out. Even though he is prepared for the worst, he is not prepared for a female Viking Warrior.
Madrene Olgadottir was left home to defend the homestead when her father and brothers went on tour. She is almost helpless when she is betrayed by the very man that should help her. When she re...more

I've gotta say. I think that this book, so far, is my absolute favorite of Sandra Hill's books. It reads fast and beautifully. The emotion, the love, the sex, are all there and in the perfect quantity. The plot is believable and well executed.
Ian MacLean is as hardassed as they come. Leader of a SEAL team, Ian takes it in spades when something dangerous has to be done, like entering a cave in enemy territory. But what he finds there will knock his socks off.

More and more as I read these books they are becoming my guilty pleasure for the sheer cheese factor, which normally turns me off, but really works for this series, actually making it better. I often find myself giggling while reading due to the very obvious misunderstandings that happen.
Madrene and Ian are more than a match for each other. I think their verbal battles are just another form of foreplay for them. Madrene was refreshing with her blunt and often inappropriate talk. She had all of...more

I have read only one book in this series before picking this one up, and that's Wet & Wild, Ragnor and Alison's book. I found myself loving Ian in that book even though he was just one of the characters, and Ragnor told him he would get along with Ragnor's sister, Madrene.
So, I eagerly picked up Hot & Heavy to read more about Ian, and his love interest, Madrene. I was not disappointed. While time-traveling is a far-fetched idea and some of the storyline a little silly at times, I very m...more

Seems like Sandra Hill take the idea of "The Taming of The Shrew" from William Shakespeare. Madrene Olgadottir indeed is a shrew. What she do for almost entire time is nag, nag, nag and mooooore nag. If I become Ian MacLean I might be nuts with Madrene's nagging. But since this book is romance novel, of course Ian love Maddie (Madrene's nickname) despite her nagging. Beside, Ian is a hot-headed man with receeding hairline and temper hot enough to pop the vein in his head, so he...more

One of the most silly and ridiculous books I have ever read. I loved it. Don't expect to learn anything or find a hidden message or think the answers of the universe will be found here. This book is pure fun. Madrene is a viking woman whose home was taken and she was sold in the middle east. She escapes one day and falls asleep in a cave. Meanwhile, about 1,000 years later, a team of Navy SEALs are on a mission. Ian MacLean finds the woman or rather she finds him and bops him on the head and tie...more

Shelves:

romance
viking woman sold into slavery in the 11th century in Afghanistan time travels and is captured by Seals on a mission who mistake her for the girlfriend of a terrorist. The Seal who captures her marries her to take her back to the states and away from the terrorists only to find out the woman is not crazy but a real viking princess whose time traveling brother is married to the Seal's sister.
A bit of a twist on the usual story for Sandra Hill. In this book she has the sister of many of the men who have time traveled come to modern times. She is 'found' by a navy seal who we know from other books and is friends with the other family of time traveling Vikings. More adventure and humor abound. I was an interesting story to see the time travel from the female perspective.
loved it, hilarious from the start. I laughted my a** off the whole time. The cat was priceless, almost makes me wish i had one too. The discripions of her in the desert, to the reation of the other seal members when she is clean is priceless i could almost see their faces. A good read,a good book. havent read the rest but plan to in the future sometime.
As always, entertaining and easy read. Took me about a day to get through it. You really have to suspend your belief here, but once you do - this whole series has been worth some laughs.
Oh my god. Words cannot describe my amusement. All I have to say is: if the serious use of the phrase "wilted manpart" doesn't make you want to read this, I do not know what will.
Lordy be! This was an absolutely excellent book!! Laugh out loud funny and HOT, racy sexy scenes!! I read this book in one day! I never read books in one day!
