Two Hearts in Time
Raymona Marie Anderson
September 2015

Rescued by tomb looter, Miguel Zamora, Sonrisa Lyons struggles between her contempt for Miguel's thievery and her need for his help in returning to civilization. 

Miguel, haunted by the loss of his wife and son would like to abandon the troublesome trouser-wearing woman from the future, but his cultured upbringing and compassionate heart rule. 

Forced companionship on the trail through Yucatan's steamy jungle blazes into mutual passion, and in spite of herself, Sonrisa is drawn into Miguel's true mission. At journey's end, she finds a possible way to return to her time. Will she try to open the portal or choose life with Miguel? 

Between The Pages 
An interesting time travel, historical romance. This book was an enjoyable read with a plot that draws you in as soon as Sonrisa mysteriously travels back in time and is found by Miguel. The main characters have instant chemistry. There’s a good blend of dialogue and description, which sets a steady pace. The author crafted a well-developed story of research with historical facts of brutality in the past as well as archeology artifacts. An entertaining read filled with romance, action, a bit of mystery, and a lot of spice.

Between The Pages - Bitter Pills and Deadly Potions

Bitter Pills and Deadly Potions 
Raymona Marie Anderson
November 2019

After nineteen years and a career in Hollywood, Maggie Simpson sheds her stage name and returns to her home town to reconcile with her sister and uncover the truth about why she abandoned Maggie with the traveling medicine show in 1946. 

Her quest stirs guilty secrets, and when a favorite son of the town is murdered, she becomes a suspect. Townspeople roiled by President Kennedy's recent assassination threaten vigilante justice. Only a deputy who seeks anonymity beyond the city limits believes in her innocence, but he fears publicity she might bring. 

Can she escape yet another predator and prove her innocence? 

Between The Pages 
A who-done-it book that leaves you guessing until the very end. It took me a chapter or two to get into the story, but it soon grabs the attention and holds it. The main characters, Maggie and Guy are well-developed and there’s a good cast of secondary characters. The plot moves this story easily from page to page with a steady pace. The dialogue is smooth and the descriptive voice shows every scene. The suspense is key to this story…every time you think you know who the villain is, there’s another suspect to watch. A good read blended with mystery, action, and drama.
