George & The Virgin could have been a hammy farce. It ends up being a fine fantasy of heroism, healing, courage, and of course, love. Heck, it makes both the fantasy reader and romance reader in me radiant with pleasure the way only a good book could. Hey, you crappy books in my TBR pile, all is forgiven. I'm okay with the romance genre all over again, and I will put that kerosene can away. But I'll only tackle the rest of you after another rereading of this wonderful story. I love this book, two thumbs and a pinkie up!

George and the Virgin was exactly what I needed to read last weekend. It was fun. It was funny. It had only the teeniest, tiniest, most negligible bit of angst - just enough for character development. It has the honor of being the only book I've read for review this year where I did not count the pages. The story flew, and the pages almost turned themselves. This may just be my favorite romance of 2002.

***** Be warned, books by Lisa Cach are very addictive! This story DEMANDED my attention from the first page. The pages flew by quickly. I lost much sleep because I HAD to see what was going to happen next when I should have been in bed. Highly recommended. *****
Five Stars!

This is a very entertaining tale with skillfully delivered humor and
well-planned situations to add drama. I could visualize what I was
reading and therefore found it difficult to stop turning pages until the
end. Couched in chuckles, there are a few home-truths about human nature
shown as the plot unfolds. This book is another shining example of how
well-written books can beat TV and movie sitcoms in capturing the
imagination and entertaining. I highly recommend it for those who want
fun and fantasy in their reading.

I've been a fan of time travel romances for years and this book
exemplifies the very reason why I enjoy them so much. I was hooked on this
book from the very beginning and avidly devoured it far late into the night
in order to find out exactly what happens to Alizon, George and the eleven
virgins. I'm happy to say that I was sighing with happiness with the
ending to this highly recommended and quite captivating time travel romance.

"Lisa Cach ingeniously takes a contemporary professional wrestler and sends him back in time to fight a virgin-eating dragon. Anyone who reads the tale will know that Ms. Cach is a brilliant innovator as this humorous time-travel tale succeeds because the story line never deviates from not taking itself too seriously. Readers will relish the professional wrestler seeking a “script” to fight the dragon in this comedic, romantic romp."
