Summary: Everything about it strokes the senses
Review: "Don't pick up this book unless you plan to stay up all night: Susan Leslie Liepitz draw you in deep with characters so real they might come knocking at your door. . . . [Captain Blake Masters] is a true hero-very human in spite of being handsome; compassionate yet practical; and realistically frustrating at times. . . . Ms. Liepitz chooses words exquisitely in her sensual prose. The transitions in time are plausible and the author's take on how people perceive life after death touches the heart. This is a mystical story, woven well. Everything about it strokes the senses, giving the imagination a curl-your-toes workout." 4½ stars Cyndie Dennis-Greer reviewing for Romantic Times

Summary: Read what the romance reviewers say about MYSTIC MEMORIES!
Review: Bell, Book & Candle: "...one of the best books I've read in a long time. Fantastic!!"

Under the Covers: "...exciting, believeable, finely crafted, and has a hero and heroine worth cheering for..."

Old Book Barn Gazette: "...If you don't read this book, you'll be missing out on an opportunity of a lifetime!"

Romantic Times: "Don't pick up this book unless you plan to stay up all night!"

Rendezvous Reviews: "...the spirited tale between this exceptional couple is loaded with sensuality... [An] ingenious slant on time-travel, combined with the paranormal, makes this book complex, full of riveting emotions, historically vibrant, and a magnetic read that pulls the reader in. The spellbinding ending is just the frosting on the top."

Summary: Magical time travel romance! A keeper!
Review: Cara & Blake's tender love affair is an adventure you won't want to miss! It has all the best elements in a romance novel--mystery, adventure, psychics, & even (my fav character) an outrageously wonderful dog. This one made me laugh & cry, & kept me glued to the pages. It's the kind of story that stays with you & leaves you asking for more. I'll be on the lookout for more of SLL's works.

Summary: Time warp into the past, and then the present
Review: Cara finds her true identity of her psychic being. Intriguing and semi-romantic. It was a nice story but semi hard to believe. But its fiction, right? It kept me reading, but ... I cant tell you the ending, wish I could. A good book even though I expected more :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very special work of romance
Review: Fourth grader Andrew Charles of Huntington Beach, California was on an overnight field trip with his school. The class was staying on a rebuilt nineteenth century sailing ship, The Mystic, when somehow the lad vanished into thin air. His desperate father turns to noted psychic sleuth Cara Edwards to find the missing child. Though reluctant to take on the case, Cara agrees to board the ship in order to trace Andrew's footsteps. On the ship, an invisible portal to everyone but her opens up and she enters to find herself on board the Mystic in 1833.

A storm soon washes Cara and the ship's captain, Blake Masters onto a nearby shore line. Together they search for a missing twentieth century lad even as the pair falls in love with each other. However, though it might appear that their love has all the time in the world to cement a permanent relationship, their century apart origins would ostensibly send both scurrying back to their rightful time because this time, even love might not be enough to make things right.

MYSTIC MEMORIES is a very interesting time travel romance that will be fully enjoyed by readers. The story line is typical of the sub-genre, though written better than most. However, the characters are incredibly developed (in both centuries) and seem genuine, making this one of the better time travel entries in several years. Susan Leslie Liepitz is a very talented writer, who knows how to elegantly employ the English language in her novels.

Summary: Psychics, Sea Captains, A Dog, and Romance!
Review: I picked this book up as a "filler" for some spare time, and wasn't able to put it down until the early hours of the morning! This time-travel is well-researched, with a lot of historical detail on 19th century ships and seafaring. The characters are very believable, with a lovely romance between the two main characters. There's also a Labrador Retriever featured (you can never go wrong by making dogs part of the story--in my book, anyway!). The author handles the psychic abilities of the main character quite well. There's an interesting twist to the plot that completely surprised me! For lovers of 19th century ship romances, this will be a treat!
