THE
MYSTIC AND THE MARQUESS
Expecting
a career advancement, instead Gwendolyn deals with a jealous
coworker... and ancient legends... and then
somehow gets hurled back into the past!
*
5 Stars! A farewell party at instructor Gwendolyn Scott’s
college suddenly turns into a farewell for her--a farewell to
the twenty-first century. Instead of dealing with jaded college
students, she finds herself in the company of tenant farmers,
Hereford cows, and a pugnacious pug. The why of it concerns an
ancient crystal relic and an enormous stone head of the Roman
god Neptune. The how of it has something to do with a jealous
fellow instructor. Gwen very admirably adjusts to the year 1819,
however when everyone addresses her as a mystic, she becomes persona
non grata with the lord of the manor, Nigel, the Marquess of
Sheffield. He threatens her with eviction, and a laugh-out loud
moment occurs when the adorable dog comes to her rescue. Ms.
Knight weaves another excellent time-travel Regency with a
diverse cast of characters including the irascible sea god
Neptune. Highly recommended!--Regency Fiction World
* What would a
grumpy Roman god do if he is offered an incorrect sacrifice?
Gwendolyn Scott unexpectedly finds out: Neptune will make heads
roll, and one of those heads is hers. Now thrust back through
time and stranded on the Marquess of Sheffield’s estate, Gwen
tries to make the best of a bad situation, and, by the way, how
is she going to return to her own time? The Marquess is
determined to send her away, but then changes his mind and is
determined for her to stay. Does Gwen agree? Does Neptune agree?

Science Fiction Romance
A dangerous interstellar assignment to
colonize a nonterrestrial world forces Naressa to butt heads
with a powerful alien leader and a stubborn Terran crewmember.
* Ms. Knight
poses an interesting dilemma in THE XENON ADVANTAGE, her latest
science fiction romance novel. A prosperous Earth is determined
to expand to other planets. A near-duplicate, uninhabited world
is discovered, and SolSpace sends an exploratory ship, the
Nautilus, to pave the way for future colonization. But wait, is
the planet truly without intelligent lifeforms? Is SolSpace
secretly aware that the planet is inhabited, and sends a
starship anyway? What about the ship’s crew, do they know what
awaits them on Acrux 4? The intrepid Nautilus crew must deal
with gut-wrenching wormholes and powerful, hostile aliens, in
addition to circumventing the differences between Earth natives
and Earth colonies around the solar system, as well as a
telepathic native from an Earth colony on the distant planet
Alpheratz 3--Naressa. Far from her distant home for the first
time, Naressa has her hands full dealing with an amorous alien
leader and a jealous Earth commander, along with the trials and
tribulations of life aboard a tin can ship. Definitely a 5 star
read!--Twist On Romance Reviews
* 5 Stars! What in the
world is a Xenon Advantage and how can I get it? The easiest way
is to read THE XENON ADVANTAGE and enjoy your journey into the
vast expanse of interstellar space. Be sure to wear your
“blocking cap” to ensure complete privacy! I loved watching
our heroine, Naressa, learn how to not only handle her
crewmates’ inappropriate thoughts when she doesn’t have her
blocking cap on, but also how she grows into the mature woman
she’s destined to become. A thoroughly enjoyable read!--Decatur
