Praise for Lost In Time
“Man oh man! Alyssa Richards has seriously outdone herself with trilogy. It encompasses love, passion, deception, heartache, reality and alternate reality. Just stunning from start to finish. This trilogy is awesome. If you’re looking for a paranormal romance that’s focused around psychics and time travel, definitely grab this trilogy. It’s simply amazing!” ~ Nay’s Pink Bookshelf
“Its a riveting story, full of surprises. The last quarter is non stop action it feels, with things looking positive, then its all turned around. There’s several different plotlines all coming to a head at the same time, and its almost breathless the way I was speed reading through full of excitement, happy one moment and then down when it all went wrong once more.
I really couldn’t guess how things would get resolved, what would happen, and its clever writing like this that kept me wondering if, how, why and when….
A fabulous read, something so very different in the Fantasy/Paranormal genre where it’s dominated by stories are just a couple of hundred pages or less of a Vampire or Were hundreds of years old finding his Mate, in a simplistic, sickly thin story * roll eyes * so its a real treat to get a book I can really get stuck into, lost in the magic (!) of the story. Stars: Five, one to keep, to savour rereading the whole trilogy back to back.” ~ Jeannie Zelos Book Review

Praise for Somewhere in Time
“The dramatic events quickly entrap the reader in this thrilling story, taking them on a roller coaster ride, empathizing with the characters, their feelings and reactions to events. It is superbly written painting vivid images in the imagination of the reader, with superb characters, action packed adventures, secrets to be discovered and an enthralling journey too with plenty of surprises along the way. The investigations lead on to even more intertwined mysteries. I highly recommend this novel, a great journey in time and back again, with mysteries, romance, suspense and thrills galore in a superbly crafted story.” ~ Splashes Into Books
“FIVE STARS. A Fantastic Story. This is an amazing series, with a mix of romance and risk, happiness and heart break, adventure and agonies….Alyssa has taken the Psychometry angle and extended it to make it her own and give us an incredible story spanning generations, encompassing past and present loves, art thefts of priceless works, and all wrapped up with the ever present danger contact with Otto brings.” ~Jeannie Zealos Book Reviews
“Just like the first book – “Somewhere in “Time” features an interesting concept of Romance, Paranormal Elements and Crime. And I devoured in just a few hours. I never left the middle of a Movie Set of something between Pierce Brosnan’s “The Thomas Crown Affair” or Sean Connery’s “Entrapment” that I stepped in when I read the first book. I was sucked right back into the story from the beginning and I could not stop reading. I can only suggest READ IT.” ~ Jeri’s Book Attic

“I just finished reading A Haunting in Alcott Manor and I have one word, AMAZING! I loved the twists. It kept me on my toes and I couldn’t put it down” ~ Colleen L
“While this book was different from the other series I loved it. This was an amazing new style of writing from Alyssa Richards. I can’t wait for her next book!” ~ Molly L
“It was really good, the ending was nothing like I expected. I was totally blown away!” ~ P. Verburg
“An escapist read, full of secrets and surprises that caught me out completely!” ~ Jeannie Zelos Book Reviews
“Excellent Gothic Suspense–Don’t Miss it. Having read Alyssa Richards other books, I knew I was in for a treat, even though this was a slightly different genre. And gothic suspense being one of my absolute favorites, I was extremely psyched to read this book. Fortunately, everything that I anticipated about how good this book would be, and how much I would enjoy it, came true.
At first glance, this might appear to be your average haunted house story. But in the hands of this very capable, and highly readable author, it becomes so much more. The haunting was unique and the story revolving around the haunting was very intriguing. I totally did not anticipate the way the story was going or how it was going to end up. This was a great first entry in a new genre that I hope the author will continue. This book, as well as everything else this author has written, comes highly recommended.” ~ DTChantel
“I loved Alyssa’s trilogy The Fine Art of Deception, and this book is another paranormal read but very different to the trilogy. It’s a great read…an escapist read, full of secrets and surprises that caught me out completely!” ~ Jeannie Zelos Book Reviews
