so convinced.Davyn wants to learn more about Rosie's time and uses the pendants to go to the future. While in San Francisco, he meets Rosie's cousin, Singlee.

When Davyn finds Rosie locked in a dungeon, he promises her he will do everything in his power to go to China and save her cousin.Dee's writing grabs the reader's attention immediately and doesn't let go. The plot moves fast and transitions well.The characters are compelling. Rosie has been spoiled her whole life, and when she's kidnapped, she learns what it means to b
e truly humble and thankful for the gifts in her life. Davyn also has some things to learn. When he finds his wife half starved to death in a neighboring Laird's dungeon, he pushes aside his "alpha" personality to give her what she needs to survive. Singlee also has to face his problems. He doesn't take things as seriously as he should. How these characters grow are a delight to the reader.Dee's descriptions are vivid using a good economy of words. It's easy to picture her novel's settings. The story is "sophisticated" for romance readers with a love scene between Rosie and Davyn. "Dawn of a Viking Sunrise" is an action packed thrill ride filled with heartache, loss, and love.
