- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 April 2015Should John Grisham and EL James have a secret love child, she would no doubt pen legal thrillers with a luscious layer of the erotic. They would name their child Muffy Wilson and send her to Stephen King for some pointers in the paranormal.
Wilson, in the obliquely titled "The Para-Portage of Emily", interweaves these three diverse genres into a compelling, magic carpet of a novel that takes Emily Macque from Chicago to a bitter island estate two hundreds miles north in the frozen sea. Emily is the striking junior partner in her father’s law firm, her mission, to settle the probate on an estate, her destiny to fall into the arms of Colin Jorgenson, a seaman haunted by a past love that torments his life.
Intelligent, well-written, with fully fleshed out characters and a story with more twists than a spiral staircase, "The Para-Portage of Emily" had me gripped until the very last page.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 June 2016The Para-Portage of Emily walks a surreal tightrope between a woman’s loneliness and an ancient love that transcends time. Beautifully told and artistically written, it tells the story of Emily, who goes to an island estate to handle family business as well as rest from the effects of a heart condition. As she delves into the history of the house and its original occupants, Colin and Amalya, she becomes obsessed with the passion and romance of their forever love for each other. Soon, the line between reality and the fantastic blurs, leaving a confused and heartsick Emily to wonder if it is possible to cross the barriers of time and space to possess a love so pure, ethereal and everlasting.
This author has written a terrific story full of heart-rending emotion, lust and laughter. Remarkably, she interjects spell-binding poetry in her flowing prose, giving her story an almost eighteenth-century flavor. Readers will smile at the climactic twist Ms.Wilson springs with characteristic flourish as well as adore the characters of a dog and cat that lend added spice and humor to her sprawling narrative.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 June 2015Spellbinding!!
This is one of those books you find hard to put down. Muffy Wilson has sculpted her excellent word usage with care and breathed life into characters that jump off the page, telling a story amid a myriad of emotions.
Romance, anguish, thrills, tears, suspense … you name it, this book has everything. Brilliant imagery and use of senses that place you in scenes wanting to know the next bit, and the next, and the next. You find yourself urging the brilliantly executed characters that you can't fail to fall in love with, to make decisions and bring everyone together to be happy.
I can't wait to read more of Muffy's wonderful writing.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 April 2015Emily Macque is a junior partner in her father’s law firm and heads to a remote estate 250 miles north of Chicago to settle an estate not realizing she’s about to meet a man haunted by his past and embroil herself into a dangerous situation. An eerie and captivating story of mystery and romance, rife with steamy, erotic love scenes and surprising twists, The Para-Portage of Emily is a must-read.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 May 2015Stunning story drawing together disparate threads into a breath-catching, heart-rending tale of passion spanning life and death. Emily goes to an island estate north of Chicago on business and is drawn into the spiritual world centred on Colin Jorgenson who has been returning to the land of the living for a century in search of the woman he loves. This is spooky, sensual, romantic, dramatic, and written with superb intensity, I couldn’t put it down.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 June 2016Emily's health is not good, she needs rest and her uncle has died! her dad is sending her to deal with his will/probate at his home in a remote house in a small town.
The house and area sound perfect to me, not sure about the ghostly dreams Emily has while she is there, they are sexy and warm but would freak me out. They don't phase Emily, she uses it as a push to dig deeper and find out more.
Emily is being seduced by a sexy man from the shadows of the house. She enjoys these encounters and seems to take more and more baths. The story is mainly in the present but does flit back to the past to help us get a feel of Colin.
This is a sensual, warm and mysterious read.

ARC REVIEW
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 April 2015The Para-Portage of Emily is a fascinating, ethereal and gripping romance, with a unique and interesting plot, that keeps the reader captivated in a limbo between reality and dreams.
The gripping love for his wife that haunts Colin for over a century, and Emily’s seduction that lures her into the arms of the shadows left me breathless.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Story
Emily's uncle died and she is overseeing the estate. Her father thought this would be good for her considering her heart condition and that it is located in a quiet town. Emily becomes obsessed with finding out the history of the home, whether it is of her own wishes, or influenced by another. This story is wonderfully written, drawing you in from the beginning to the end. This is a very suspenseful, intriguing story of a lost love and a found love. Muffy Wilson has written a love story for the ages. Emily and Colin and the circumstances, are so well-described that you can feel the love. The romance is outstanding and well-done. This is my first book by Muffy Wilson and I will definitely be looking for more from this excellent writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Attorney Emily Macque immediately falls in love with the island and Mariner's Maiden
This is a story to savor. Attorney Emily Macque immediately falls in love with the island and Mariner's Maiden, her uncle's home there. Fascinated and nearly obsessed with the history of the welcoming home, she immerses herself in delving into its history and learning more about the original lovers who lived there.
Ms. Wilson's descriptions are poetic and enthralling, placing the reader in the midst of the story, and the relaxed pace of the story does not lessen the power of suspense. Shrouded in mystery, romance, and eroticism, "The Para-Portage of Emily" is a treat for the senses, a haunting indulgence. Despite hints throughout, the ending still surprised me, and though satisfied, I regretted the literary journey's end. Highly recommended. I look forward to more from this promising series.
