Lost in the Mist of Time
By: Karen Michelle Nutt

Lighthouse Literary Reviews - Linda

"Lost In The Mist of Time is a story that spins with much creativity. The characters, strong in their actions and emotions, never knew that crossing time would bring a togetherness that would last through the years. The well-rounded secondary characters blend in to make the read even more dazzling in Aislinn and Dougray’s search. It is a tale of loss and conquering that allows the reader to feel part of the time travel while feuds, hatred and heartbreak increasingly grow around them. Karen Michelle Nutt takes the reader to 16th century Ireland with luscious landscape and men who defend their country at any costs. She paints her characters with emotions that reach deep in a land that is not always full of happiness. Whether retrieving a sword for duty or protection, she fashions men that are willing to forbear and take on any task, and the strong, yet tender women who stand behind them. She pens a time where chivalry lives on and love triumphs."

"Being a history buff, The Tittle of Lost in the Mists of Time and the setting in 16th Century Ireland, where my ancestors once called home, led me to read a romantic tale, which for me is very rare.

Karen Michelle Nutt has penned a very entertaining story filled with hilarity, strong complex characters, love, danger, fear, courage and a larger than life adventure that captured me completely. Lost in the Mists of Time is a fantastic tale, told by a gifted storyteller and will delight anyone that steps into this wonderful book and travels through the Mists of Time.

A Fantastic Tale! Gifted Storytelling! My highest Rating! A Must Read!"

Aislinn Hennessy is a fiercely independent modern woman with a questionable taste in men. No man in her world lived up to the men she envisioned in her highly successful romance novels. Sir Dougray Fitzpatrick, a handsome Lord in sixteenth century Ireland, has no desire to replace the wife he buried. But he is haunted by a seer’s prediction that he will visit the future to seek a vision that will determine his future born. When Aislinn visits modern day Ireland with her parents, she encounters a man who seems lost and confused. When he remembers his name and purpose, Dougray attempts to return to his own time by entering a magical mist. Aislinn follows and finds herself stuck in old Ireland, where violence is common and women are expected to be submissive to men. Deeply attracted but fighting each other at every turn, they dance around a relationship, experiencing emotions of admiration, anger, frustration, and fear. Will they discover a chance for everlasting love? The author has created a world of myth, romance, and family secrets, historically set in sixteenth century Ireland. The characters are believable and the description of castle life is delightful. “Lost in the Mist of Time” is a must read for those interested in historical romance with a touch of the paranormal.

 An Excellent book by an Excellent author

Lost in the Mist of Time by author Karen Michelle Nutt, is an intriguing story based in Ireland during the sixteenth century. Fiction is hard to write, but to write a book that is based on historical facts and then make those facts entertaining is quite challenging. Once you start to read this book you will not be able to put it down, as the characters come alive on the pages. This book is filed with love, danger, fear and courage as well as strong characters and vivid descriptions of Castles in the years gone by. Lost in the Mist of Time is an entertaining book and truly one of the best books that I have read in many years. This book will become a valued addition to any personal library and will be one that you will want to share with others. Tom Ward, author The Enemy Within Outposts of Hell or Portals to Heaven.

Love Books!, A reviewer, 01/25/2007

This is one of the best time-travel books I have ever read. The author takes you back to 16th Century Ireland with such vivid detail that you will feel like you were there. Aislinn is a strong willed woman of the 21st century and Dougray, the gorgeous hunk, is from the 16th Century. Their banter at times is hilarious. You will simply love this couple as Aislinn tries to adjust to castle life, and Dougray tries to keep her out of trouble. Outstanding!

In this modern day fairy tale, Karen Michelle Nutt entrances her readers to enter into her latest novel entitled Lost in the Mist of Time. First we meet Aislinn Hennessy, an independent, intelligent, beautiful woman. She is romance writer who loves writing romance tales but can never seem to find a real one. Her past relationships failed horribly and nothing appears to be changing until she reaches the mist. While driving she hits a stranger. Someone who appears to be from another century the sixteenth century to be exact. Sir Dougray Fitzpatrick, Lord of Dunhaven’s history not much brighter than Aislinn’s, encounters each other with much suspicion. However, they are destined to meet. Sir Fitzpatrick, a widow, was told by a psychic he would meet a traveler who would help him set the future right. Through their fights, turbulent battles, sometimes, humorous trickeries, and always wild adventures, Dougray discovers Aislinn to be a woman of great strength, heart, and love. Aislinn finds Dougray as a man of courage, bravery, and honor. Their beautifully told story keeps readers in constant suspense. Nutt is an excellent storyteller with a knack for pace, rhythm and description. She conveys the story without giving away too much too soon with artistic grace. Lost in the Mist of Time is precisely where the readers will find themselves as soon as they turn the first page. It is truly a thrilling read.
