"You'll be swept back in time with the author's vivid descriptions of the era, while being immersed in the magic of legend itself. A must read!" ~ by Karen Michelle Nutt, for PNR

MEDIEVAL TIME-TRAVEL ROMANCE:
Some are born to greatness. Others have it thrust upon them. Marian Allanson would prefer to avoid it, period. Emotionally scarred, and haunted by nightly dreams of the mythical Robin Hood, Marian is limping through life till a mysterious quirk of fate tosses her and twelve-year-old street kid Orlando Konstantinos centuries into the past.

Now she's on a full-scale run through medieval Sherwood, threatened by the Sheriff of Nottingham, and discovering there may be truth to the myth, after all. A forest phantom appears out of the shadows to rescue her from death, then disappears again, leaving her to a different danger in the form of a forced marriage to Lord Roland of Hunterdon, a man hot enough to melt a maid's skivvies (despite the fact underwear hasn't been invented yet). To make matters worse, when the old sheriff is murdered, Roland steps into the job with plans to kill Robin Hood, unless Marian can stop him. Or will Roland be the one to die?

With the questions striking deeper than Robin's arrows, and a sudden uncertainty as to who's the villain and who's the hero, "Maid Marian" has much more to worry about than her missing unmentionables. And speaking of missing, where the devil is Orlando?... Before the secrets crack open and the dust clears, an unlikely heroine will rise from her own ashes, a legend will be rewritten, and a love will be forged strong enough to conquer time...

Available from Amber Quill Press and Amazon.

More great reviews for SHERWOOD CHARADE...

I have to admit I'm really happy with the response this book has received so far. I'm also very grateful to those who have taken the time to read it and post their reviews.... Thank you, Karen and Amanda! :) From PNR: "I love the story of Robin Hood and Ms. Riser did a fabulous job of putting her own spin on the lovable tale.

5 Angels for SHERWOOD CHARADE

5 Angels from FAR (Thank you, Stephanie :) "Sherwood Charade by Mimi Riser is a humorous, quirky tale primarily about finding your dream. Marian is a modern, educated woman apparently thrust back in time to find the man of her dreams.... But in this time travel tale, can fact live up to the fiction Marian has imagined? In the story the man who is Robin Hood isn’t what she expects, but you will have to read the story to find out more! I enjoyed this tale.... There is a sense of fun throughout th… Continue

Hi Mimi: I was reading your profile and see that your birthdate is 1900. LOL Not that I think you are 108 years old, but if you are I was thinking that I need to learn your secret fast. :-) <<

LOL It's all the writing. I always have several stories in progress, and tell myself I can't possibly die till I finish them. Providing I don't run out of ideas, I figure I can keep going a long time.......

Glad to be your friend. Oops I sent you an e-mail as well. Anyway sounds like we both thrive from the outdoors. I'm a wolf maiden and raven is my power animal.

I've been doing the wildlife business for 30 years now. My husband and I started it in 1978 when we realized that no one did it back than and people were having problems with the wildlife getting into their homes. So we started going out and catching them and releasing them back into the wild where they wouldn't cause problems. I love working with them. Its a new adventure all the time couldn't ask for a better job.
