A Tapestry, a legend and new destiny follows Jane on her journey . First book by this author for me and interesting story .
Ebook from netgalley and publishers with thanks. Opinions are entirely my own.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Beyond the Page Publishing via NetGalley and I am voluntarily reviewing it.

This was a highly erotic romance that was done wonderfully. I enjoyed the plot but wished that it was a little longer. I don't read a great deal of erotica but was glad to have read this. There was also violence in this book as it was in the mid-evil times when life was rough.

I did enjoy the dual POV format here. The characters' had some miscommunication that was dealt but being an insider into the characters' thought process gave the reader the details of the problems immediately.

I do recommend this story for anyone over 18.

I really like this book very much! The storyline flowed well and the sex scenes were well written and enjoyable!

A woman whose life has crumbled when doing the right thing falls into another world, where brothers find her and plan to keep her, but only if she agrees.
She’s a scrappy though badly used lady, very likeable. One of the guys is equally empathetic, but unfortunately he’s not the main; that goes to the caveman-type guy.
Over the years I’ve read plenty of stories where someone from our reality gets transported to another world or time. I don’t think I’ve ever read about it happening via a tapestry. Paintings yes, but not this.
I’ve sadly come to expect a silly lack of communication being a barrier before the inevitable happily ever after, but this one was worst than most. Everyone jumps to the wrong conclusion and is too stubborn to talk about it. Perhaps one of these days an author will shock me and make an unhappily ever after, because this was annoying enough to bring down my enjoyment of the entire book.
2.5 pushed up to 3/5

I found this book a little cheesy and predictable, however I did enjoy the idea of being taken back through time via a magical tapestry to Javara, a world where women are in short supply and the men are forced to compete for a chance to marry you.
The writing was good and the story was interesting. The characters were well developed.
If you are easily offended by lots of sex in a story this book is definitely not for you.

A very nice time travel fantasy romance, the story was interesting with characters that you liked and wanted to read about.
This was a really easy read, and I was surprised at how fast I finished the book! The story flowed along and was completely entertaining. Our heroine had her life torn apart and was preparing to start over again when she ends up in whole different world. She quickly gives into her passions, and then learns why she is there. Choices need to be made, and she has to weigh her future with her past. Lots of sexy times and some pretty intense action scenes. Overall, a good read!

I usually like time traveling themed stories with warrior males but I couldn't completely get into Bakra Bride. I felt like it was too much condensed into a short book. I really don't understand the point to the beginning of the book , with the main character witnessing a murder. This didn't really give much to the story except bring her to the point where she lost everything and how she came about purchasing the tapestry that would bring her back to a different place, in a different time period.
I felt like it rushed into the sex too quickly without developing more with the characters.
Not my favorite book.

After having witnessed a murder, Jane's life as she knows it, is gone. No job, no boyfriend, no place to live, Jane is at an all-time low. Her only bright spot is the tapestry she purchased from the thrift store. It brings her much peace and joy. One night she falls asleep under the tapestry. She has what she thought was an erotic dream featuring the men in the tapestry. A couple nights later she does it again, only she is transported to Bakra Castle which is depicted in the tapestry. There she meets two warriors who believe she is a prophecy.

Zaren and Bador are excited to find Jane has been transported to their world through the tapestry! They will do their best to indulge her every sexual fantasy, so much so, that she will never want to leave. Unfortunately there are rules. Jane has a limited amount of time to choose her fate or the tapestry chooses for her. She must choose a husband or return to her time.

I loved the first book in this series, Christina's Tapestry, so I hoped this was just as good! It was!! I was intrigued with the storyline and the characters. Jane is a strong girl with a firm head on her shoulders. I was drawn to Zaren over Bador as well as Jane! There was something about him that just clicked with me.

This series is interesting as it is intriguing! I look forward to additional books featuring strong women going back to Medieval times!

Bakra Bride is an enchanting romance that takes readers back to a simpler time where sexy Highland warriors try to convince the modern Jane to take one of them as her loving husband for all time. Zaren and Bador are hot, alpha males and Jane is a strong but struggling young women, of course all the characters easily captivate readers and draw them into their romance. The passion and chemistry between Jane and the brothers burns with lots of burning heat and the love scenes are a sensual delight while scorching readers with their hotness. But the relationship of course is not all roses since Jane is only in the past for a short amount of time and the brothers will lose her forever if she doesn’t choose them. The plot is fast paced and full of excitement not only from the thrilling suspense of the spell of the Tapestry, but also from danger that others pose since they too want a bride. The author does such a great job of describing her story that I can very easily picture myself in the story and I find myself wishing it really was me.

BAKRA BRIDE is a re-release for author N.J. Walters, but if you haven't had the opportunity to read her Tapestry books you have got to grab these up. Book two follows the same basic format as book one, (Christina's Tapestry) and we even get to visit them again and see how Christina has adjusted to her new life.

As you can guess with two brothers vying for her affections, this is a very erotic book, but there is a good story in these pages. Jane's life is a mess and she finds herself in a world that she becomes the center, a nice change, but she also has the option of going back. There is some violence as other tribes want their own tapestry bride. The action is well written and the look at family and home life add emotional touches to the story line. You need not read book one to enjoy BAKRA BRIDE, but you will want to get your on all of the tapestry books for the pleasure of reading a racy, fun read.

Steamy, saucy and sweet. I liked this book. I liked the time travel theme (although this could have been explored more) and the characters were welll developed and engaging enough to keep me interested.

I will look out for the others in this series.

This is a time travel/romance story with mature scenes not intended for the young adult (-18) reader.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story and look forward to reading the rest of the series.

Description from Amazon:

After witnessing a gruesome murder, Jane Smith has watched her life crumble around her. Her only solace is the stunning and mysterious tapestry she discovered at a thrift store. When the image stitched into the tapestry magically comes to life one night, Jane finds herself transported to a mystical Medieval world, where two massive warriors declare their intentions to cater to her every sensual desire.

Zaren and Bador are stunned to realize that the prophecy of the tapestry has come true and brought Jane to them. The brothers willingly accept their duty to indulge her in every possible form of passion. But Jane’s arrival has also attracted the attention of rival warriors, who will go to any lengths to steal her from the Bakra brothers and claim her as their own.

As Jane adjusts to this frightening but enthralling world, Zaren and Bador risk all to protect her—even as they use all their sexual skill, separately and together, to take her to unimagined sensual heights. Because the time for Jane to choose is drawing near, and the Bakra brothers must convince her to abandon her former life—and take one of them as her loving husband for all time . . .

**
Looking for a sexy, erotic romance without BDSM, this is your book. However if you want a good time-travel book then this one falls short. This is typical erotica in that there is a lot of sex in many variations, but it is cloaked in a bit of sappy romance. Zaren is over-the-top in his “love" for Jane. At least Bador seems to have a level head. Jane is having the time of her sexual life so it really leaves little doubt about her staying with the brothers or about which one she will choose for a husband. Little does it matter since she will still get to have sex with her brother-in-law also. This is a good erotic novel if you are tired of women being blindfolded and tied up, none of that here. Jane is a very active participant in all the bedroom romps. The writing is good, I just wish the time-travel part was explored further. The TT premise was a good one but it fell flat.

overall a good story, quick read. The storyline was good and i intend to read the rest of the series.

Jane Smith helped catch an embezzler and murderer at the cost of her job and boyfriend. She is at a shop where she picks up a piece of tapestry that tell a story to the person who owns it. This is not any tapestry but a special one that can transport a woman to a medieval time. Zaren and Bador are warriors from the Castle Bakra. The brothers live in a time where there are three women born to every man. Women are in short supply and a tapestry bride comes every generation. The brothers compete for her by indulging her in every way. She has three days to decide whether she will stay or go back to her time. There are other warriors who would steal her away. Will she stay and if so who will she pick? Very sexy story. Definitely erotica. I received this book from Net Galley and Beyond the Page Publishing for a honest review and no compensation otherwise.

A very nice time travel fantasy romance, the story was interesting with characters that you liked and wanted to read about.

Time travel, fairy tale castle, 2 hotties out front and 2 in the back? What more is needed? Will Jane be able to choose the one who suits her best? Will her needs be fulfilled in this strange new world with its most different attitudes and customs? Will a new family form from this unusual setting?

This story is a time travel story with a different twist. Very hot, not for teens! Second in the series, The story and writing was great but a little too hot for me.

The second book in N.J. Walters' Tapestries series is just as hot as the first! Jane wants nothing more than to get away after witnessing a murder. Her life is basically in shreds - no house, no job and no boyfriend. She purchases a medieval tapestry that gives her comfort while she is trying to pick up the pieces of her life.

This is a special tapestry - it's a gateway to another world very different than her own. Waiting for her are two super-hot medieval hunks and all they want is her - to share. Brothers Zaren and Bador both want to marry her and make her his own, but she can only choose one. One to marry that is.

Will Jane choose one of the men and leave her real life behind?

Very good, super steamy novella. Realistic characters and sexy situations that are through the roof. Sigh. This is a hot one folks. Enjoyed book two and much as book one.

Loved reading the mesmerizing second boos in the Tapestry series. Jane finds herself back in time with two incredible, passionate men and has to choose either to go back to the present or choose one of the two amazing men to marry. Read the highly recommended and captivating loved be story. I reviewed a copy of the story through NetGalley.
