Customer Reviews

I totally love this book!

Marcia is the best romance writer around! Her books are clean, but oh, be still my heart! The Visions of Ransom Lake is my favorite so far. I couldn't put it down.

Clean historical romance at its best!!

In this story, the wild and imaginative Vaden Valmont moves with her sister to the untamed West where her aunt and uncle need help with their mercantile. While she immediately catches the eye of Jerome Clayton, the well-mannered, ideal gentlemen and perfect beau of the town, Vaden's only interest is the mysterious and brooding town hermit, Ransom Lake, whom she continuously trips up, but whom eventually wins her heart. I would give any of Marcia's books no less than FIVE STARS, because that's what they all deserve. It is absolutely amazing, the writing skill of this woman. She can weave a spell with her magical words and transport you to the exact time and place of the story. It is beautiful historical romance, but without smutty trash or preachy Christian ties. It's filled with sweet kisses, healing kisses, promising kisses. If you're looking for an amazing romance story that will keep you riveted from beginning to end, this is it! Page one will pull you in and you won't be able to put it down till the early hours of the morning. You won't regret buying this book. If you feel the offers are too expensive or the books are unavaliable, try Googling her name or look for her publishing company, Distractions, Inc. All her books are avaliable for under $20 on her website and worth every penny. Spread the word, because Marcia is entirely too underrated and overlooked.

Visions of Ransom Lake

Clean with no yucky suprises. Lots of yummy kisses. This is my favorite "Marcia" book! Shackles of Honor is a close second. What can I say there is nothing like MmmmmmmmmMarcia's books. Read one and you have to read them all, again, and again until the pages fall out. Not exagerating at all. My litte sister got me hooked on her books. She can't write them fast enough as far as we are concerned.

Wonderful book

Marcia Lynn McClure is one of the best authors I have found who write "clean" romance. I loved all of her books. This book was not my favorite (Dusty Britches and Heavenly Surrentder tied for that spot) Here is the basic overview of the book (taken from Marcia's website)...................Youthful beauty, naive innocence, a romantic imagination thirsting for adventure...an apt description of Vaden. Vaden Valmont, who would soon find the adventure and mystery she had always longed to experience...in the form of a man. A somber recluse, Ransom Lake descended from his solitary concealment in the mountains, wholly disinterested in people and their trivial affairs. But somehow, young Vaden managed to be ever in his way...either by accident or because of her own unique ability to stumble into a quandary. Yet the enigmatic Ransom Lake would involuntarily become Vaden's unwitting tutor. Through him, she would experience joy and passion the like that even Vaden had never imagined. Yes, Vaden Valmont stepped innocently, yet irrevocably, into love with the secretive, seemingly callous man. There were other life's lessons that Ransom Lake would inadvertently bring to her as well. The darker side of life...despair, guilt, heartache. Would Ransom Lake be the means of Vaden's dreams come true? Or the cause of her complete desolation?
