Tall, Blonde & not from our time

Miranda has finally found "The Plague of the North", a long lost Viking frozen perfectly in time. As she and her father were the heads of the team of scientists to discover the frozen Viking they are awarded the luxury of first examination, before the frozen man will go to other scientists for further study. However Mirandas frozen specimen defrosts, her lab is broken into and her life is turned upside down-for the better. Miranda and Rolf (her viking) then under go the dangerous quest of recovering his ship with an unknown enemy trying to stop them.Sigh, I wouldn't mind my own Viking, just not sure I'd have the patience to bring him into the modern day era with all of our technology. For this reason, I found the concept of the story hard to believe even though I very much enjoyed this quick read.

Rising Temperatures

In a wonderful example of Maggie Shayne at her best, Miranda's Viking blends mystery, adventure, romance, and a little slice of magic. Following her father's dreams into the frozen arctic, scientist Miranda O'Shea discovers a legend frozen in a secret cave. Pleased that her father's dream of finding the "Plague of the North," has been realized, Miranda finds herself wishing that the handsome viking was more than a warrior frozen in time, until temperatures rise and Miranda gets her wish.Throwing together strong characters and stronger passions with more than a hint of suspence and danger, Miranda's Viking is an adventure from cover to cover.
