Same pattern as the other 2 in the trilogy This book was good; it was written well, it just began to sound very similar to the other two books in the trilogy. All three books talked about partners who were afraid of love, and terrified of commitment. All of the men were great and powerful and the women each had some kind of special gift. As I read the last book, I almost wondered if maybe I could have guessed the entire plot. ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING Read EVERYTHING Josie LItton writes. She is unmatched in her skill to grab you and not let go. You will smell, hear, see and definately wish you could touch everything her characters experience. ALL of her trilogies are magnificent. A great way to complete the trilogy! I truly enjoyed this trilogy! All three stories were great reads and all three couples endearing. I think I liked "Dream of Me" the best, but "Come Back to Me" is a close second.The Norse Dragon, the man who loves women, was a great character. Though normally open to any new adventure, he dreads his arranged marriage with a Saxon lady he knows nothing about. But he is determined to support his brother Wolf's efforts to maintain the shaky peace between Saxon and Norse and is resigned to his fate. He has come to England to the home of his friend the Hawk who has loaned him his lodge in the woods to spend some alone time before the wedding. He stumbles across a young boy, who turns out to be a woman in disguise, desperately fleeing and hiding something. Loathe to let a woman wander about alone and curious about her circumstances, he makes a bargain with her to stay with him for a couple of days hoping to find out who she is and what she is running from. And since she won't tell him who she is, why should he tell her who he is? Thus they pass a few days companionably and inevitably are attracted to each other. But the Saxon lady Rycca has had very bad experiences with men, starting with her own brutal father and brothers. When she meets Dragon, she is completely thrown - he is like no man she has ever met. Ever kind, funny and at the same time smart and strong. Surely she has stumbled into some strange land! He can't be for real! She decides she must move on and takes off in the night only to be caught on the road by said father and brothers. Once again, she is rescued by the Dragon. Surprise, surprise they discover they are betrothed to each other! The rest of the book centers on the growing relationship between Dragon and Rycca, their attempts to build trust and understanding and ultimately to discover who is trying to destroy them and thus the Saxon/Norse alliance. Josie Litton is a great author - read all her books! Her second trilogy is also a must read - so far!
