customer 's review (TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS...)    
(Time-travel read that is lightweight but delightful)    
(Predictable, but readable.)   
(Heartwarming Romance)    
(Wonderful Read)     This is a wonderfully entertaining book that will appeal to those who enjoy time travel romance, especially those who are fans of authors Diana Gabaldon and Terri Brisbin. The author is a gifted storyteller, as it is a well-written, well-plotted book, with a cogent storyline and engaging characters.
The book revolves around Shelby, a young, rootless woman, who is the caretaker for Winterhill, a historic house in Hannibal, Missouri, 1999. It has a twin, Summervale, that mirrors it in every way. Winterville was built by a Zacharias Logan more than a century ago after his wife, Agatha, cast him and their twin sons from Summervale. Agatha went on to live a totally reclusive life at Summervale, never seeing her husband or sons until the day that she died.
When the current owner of Winterville decides to sell the house, rather than restore it, Shelby goes to Summervale, now a dilapidated wreck of a house, to see if she can find any information about its mysterious past. Shelby hopes to use such information in order to generate public interest in both houses, so as to forestall their now seemingly inevitable destruction in the name of progress and development. While rooting around in Summervale, however, Shelby finds herself mysteriously transported to 1871 and in the body of Agatha Logan.
While in the past, Shelby seeks to put to right what once went wrong in the Logan household in an effort to ensure the preservation of Winterhill and Summervale in the future. She discovers the secrets that caused such a rift between the handsome Zacharias and the headstrong Agatha. What she did not count on is the undeniable attraction that Zacharias holds for her. Zacharias, at a loss to explain the seemingly inexplicable, though welcome, change in his wife's attitude towards him, finds himself more strongly drawn to Agatha than ever before.
What happens to Shelby, Zacharias, and Agatha will keep the reader turning the pages of this thoroughly enjoyable novel. Those who enjoy well-written time travel romance, as well as romantic historical fiction, will be quite entertained by this book.
Looking for a quick read? This is a great short story.Some authors do time travel well (see Diana Gabaldon) most do not. Many authors spend too much time creatively getting their characters back in time and not enough time creating believable characters. Sherry Lewis succeeds in both getting her character (Shelby) back in time and also developing a good character-based story. The story builds in a nicely suspensful way and all ends happily but not predictably. The main characters: Shelby and Zachary are likeable and slight historical references to Hannibal, Missouri's most famous resident enrich their story. "A Time to Dream" was enjoyable, and yet, somewhat aggravating. And I have a feeling that is exactly what Sherry Lewis wanted. Although I didn't get a true sense of romance, the story did throw some curve balls, when unraveling the mystery behind Agatha, along with her family and enemies; although I still had some unanswered questions by the time I finished the book. As soon as you begin this story, you know how it will end, but you still feel the need to continue, to see how it will end. If you're in the mood for a light read, then this is the book for you. I recommend. This story is one of depth. If you like "fluffy" stories without any words of wisdom within it's pages, or romances with gratuitous sex, this one isn't for you.I found my attention captured within the first few pages. Sherry Lewis piques the interest of her reader immediately with a dilemma-how the main character Shelby will manage to save two "twin" houses, as well as her job as caretaker of one of them. Determined to locate the journals of Agatha, the "crazy" woman who lived in one of the homes, Shelby pokes around the dilapidated mansion. While there, she finds herself overwhelmed with the heat, and thought her imagination was running overtime when she peers into the cracked mirror above an old dressing table and spies the refelction of another woman! This encounter plunges her back in time to 1871 when the houses were in their original splendor, and transforms her into Agatha herself! Progressing through the story, Shelby discovers the true nature of Agatha's voluntary isolation and learns of treachery committed by her husband. Determined to bring Agatha and her husband reconcillation with the hope of changing the fate of the houses, Shelby shows the reader what true love means. A Time To Dream is romance with a message; when life hands you lemons, it really is up to you to DECIDE to make lemonade. I definitely plan to read more by Sherry Lewis! She travels back in time to find she's now Agatha; a prim, proper woman living as a recluse in the house he built for her when she left after the birth of the twins. His "wife" is now so much nicer, with a loving nature, that he wonders if they could rebuild their marriage. His interfering mother and ex-mistress don't want to see that happen. A delightful, quick read with wonderful characters. Rerations < Time to Dream (Time Passages) >

customer 's review (good despite hero and heroine....)   
(A very funny book but slightly perplexing)   
(I enjoyed it)   
(A GREAT BOOK!)    
(A pleasing, different time travel romance with a male lead)   this was a first Angie Ray book for me. She is a very good romance writer and the book was entertaining.
The flaws-The "romance" between the two characters was a bit frustrating because this is one of the type of romances where the two characters fight-themselves, each other and the romance-till almost the end. The hero, Derek, is a playboy, and he fights being a stand up guy till the end as well. If these were resolved quicker in the book I think it would have been more enjoyable.
The praise-even with some character issues, Ms Ray writes such a fast paced, enjoyable story that you can overlook the foibles.
I'd recommend this book to anyone who likes time travel, fish out of water, or humorous romance. 4 stars. Not very many books play like a movie in my head. But this book was written so well that I literally saw it in my head as though I was watching a movie instead of reading a book. The tortures that Lady Allison thinks of for the reluctant playboy 'knight', had me rolling in laughter until tears fell from my eyes. The only thing that had me perplexed with this book, is the relationship between Lady Allison and Derek Sinclair.
For anyone who has read A Knight To Cherish, the you would know that My Lady In Time is the sequel to it. So if Lady Allison Pelsworth is a descendent of Garrick Sinclair, who is the long lost brother of Derek Sinclair, wouldn't that make Lady Allison Derek Sinclair's great-great niece?
That thought provoking question is the only reason why I gave this book four stars instead of five. Aside from that, this book will not leave you feeling disappointed. I would recommend reading A Knight To Cherish first though. Fun and entertaining with a cast of characters I had a good time reading about. I laughed so much when i read this book that tears where streaming down my cheeks...the charachters are loving...the story is witty,funny and romantic...with all this rolled up together it made one of the best books i had ever read!...if you love time travel don't waste any more time trust me you don't want to miss this book..;) My Lady in Time was a pleasant read. The leading character is a male, for a change, who travels back through time where he eventually learns his true calling in life and falls in love along the way. The story had some fun moments, but was lacking in the intense emotional pangs of a very good romance book. Some moments were just plain silly, and the romantic tension between Derek and Allison could have been stronger if Allison were a bit less shallow character. Her main attributes were her beauty and wealth. I failed to connect with her and found it hard to understand Derek's deep attraction to her. Derek, on the other hand, is a much stronger character. His transformation from a modern day playboy to a hardworking, respectable knight really had me rooting for him all the way. If you'd like a nice, lighthearted story, then you should enjoy My Lady in Time. It's a good book, just not a great one. A handsome California playboy wakes up in Medieval England in 1498. And for the first time in his life, he finds a love that transcends time. Angie Ray is a Rita Award-winning author. A "Time Passages" series original romance. .

customer 's review (Fantastic Story)    
(One of my ALL TIME FAVORITES!!!)    
(Magical Christmas Knight)   
(Ho hum) 
(Sets you up for a fall)  I truly can't believe someone would write a bad review of this book. The story is a wonderful time travel romance full of magic, mischief and chemistry. Any imaginable lags in the plot certainly do not seem to come from our hero and heroine. There is a tangible chemistry between the two main characters. Ronan is a wonderful mix of old world ideals and a fierce exterior which hides a sweet tenderness for kittens, little girls and stuffed bears. Hope is a modern day woman trying to cope with this time travelling highlander. The sparks do fly! I think it helps to read some of Ms. Skye's other Draycott stories as well. Reading them helps to bring the characters a bit more depth but I still feel this story can well stand on its own! I have read this book at least three times and every time the magic is there for me. This is definately one of those Keeper books. I love the whole Draycott Abbey Series, and can't wait for the next one. Hint, Hint, Christina!!!A reluctant hero, a maid in dire straits, three bumbling witches and of course, Adrian the guardian ghost from Draycott Abbey all combine into one of the most entertaining reads ever! You want romance, well honey, you've got it in this one. One to sigh over and read again and again. Hope O'Hara, felt connected to Glenbrae House the moment she spotted it and with an inheritance received from her beloved uncle, the very last relative she had. The connection with something, anything, would be welcome to take away the pain of loneliness. This 13th century manor would take an enormous amount of money to make it into the prosperous B&B she had envisioned - more than even she had anticipated without paying guests to help get her established. As the tax man starts breathing down her neck, what Hope needed, was a Knight in Shining Armour, and Ronan MacLeod was just what the doctor ordered. Oh, did I say doctor? What I meant was the three Wishwell sisters who seemed to have a hand in conjuring up this 13th century warrior.Ronan MacLeod, a fierce warrior, had been granted Glenbrae House, by King Edward for his deeds and he wanted nothing more than to forget, the horrors and nightmares of the battles he had fought, and the murders he had committed for this hated English King. Finally, dead inside, he would have a home - long in coming but not for very long in keeping as he was thrust into the 21st century to save a damsel in distress. From the moment he caught Hope in his arms, as she fell from the roof of Glenbrae House, feelings he had never experienced before rose to the surface. He had enjoyed women, purely as a means to satisfy an itch - but never before was his heart caught up in his chest where he actually felt something for a woman. But here, this strong woman, dressed strangely, and with shorn hair aroused all his feelings of lust and protectiveness. But how could Hope believe this man was from the 13th century, even if he did come dressed in realistic Armour and riding a great war horse? How could she possibly trust him with her heart - he had to be an actor or something to explain his appearance. Ronan, on the other hand, could believe - Glenbrae House was his home, the same but different. He could see he was in the future but his honor would keep him from his feelings for Hope knowing that at any moment he could be thrust back into his own time. He had been brought here because Hope was in danger and needed protection - but who would protect him from losing his heart? I am a Christina Skye `Draycott Abbey' fan, and anyone who has read any of the Draycott Abbey books know how spell binding they can be. While the Christmas Knight does not take place at Draycott Abbey, characters from the Abbey do come to Glenbrae including Adrien and his cat Gideon. Yet, you will find Glenbrae House has a charm of it's own as the talented Ms. Skye introduces you to even more enjoyable characters including three delightful witchy type sisters. It is a great book to be reading at this time of the year as you can enjoy the magic here as well as into the Christmas season. I can definitely recommend this book. At 385 pages (more or less) this book is about 200 pages too long. The premise was great, and it would have been a great light (short) holiday romance. As another reviewer pointed out (V.V. Yaeggy) it seems that Skye couldn't decide what to do with her story once it got going, so she just kept dragging it out. New (and seemingly important) characters are suddenly--and clumsily-- introduced mid-stream. Vague references are made to the "danger" MacLeod senses, but readers have seen absolutely no evidence of it. Ghosts and other spirits are suddenly conjured out of nowhere (pardon the pun), seemingly as the only way to resolve the plot, and totally strains the credibility. Hope doesn't believe MacLeod's story of being sent through time, and MacLeod's stoic sense of honor wears thin after the fifteenth scene of he&Hope in a passionate clinch... which is a LOT. Some of the dialog&descriptions in these scenes seems rather overdone, too.... The concept was very interesting: Damsel in 21st-Century distress. Enter the gallant knight from 700 years in the past. Hope is in dire straights and only a miracle in the form of a tortured but honorable Ronan Macleod can save her and her failing inn. The premise was what drew me in the first place. Unfortunately, the author never made good on her promise of a good love story. Once she introduced the main characters, the author seemed at a loss as to what to do with them. She tries to introduce more elements like a ghost, witches or fairies or however you want to call them, a sinister stalker, etc. Christina Skye seemed unsure of how to pull them all together. In the end, it felt like overkill; too many elements and incapability to pull them all together. It could have been a great story, but it never delivered what it promised. I recommend checking it out at the local library if you really want to read it. Hope O'Hara desperately needs a Christmas miracle or she'll lose her beloved Glenbrae House forever. Just when she thinks all is lost, a mysterious stranger comes riding into her life. From the moment she first sees him, Hope instinctively trusts Ronan MacLeod, but she doesn't quite know what to do when her valiant--and virile--rescuer claims that he's...a medieval knight! Christina Skye continues her popular Draycott series with this atmospheric tale set at ancient Glenbrae House in remote Scotland. As Christmas approaches, Hope O'Hara is in desperate straits: unless she can find paying guests for the home she has lovingly restored, she'll lose it to creditors. Enter one literal knight in shining armor--valiant and virile Ronan MacLeod, who is swept 700 years through time to save Hope from a potentially fatal accident. Convinced he must ultimately return to his medieval world, Ronan honorably resists his powerful desire for Hope, and seeks to protect her from an elusive danger. A trio of magical fairy godmothers, a parrot who quotes Shakespeare, and several beloved Draycott characters--including the imperious ghost Adrian and his mysterious cat Gideon--add charm to this suspenseful fantasy romance in which the discovery of a priceless manuscript threatens to ruin Christmas for everyone in Glenbrae House.--Ellen Edwards Rerations < Christmas Knight >

Usually ships in 24 hours When American tourists Lucy McLaverty and Maxine Desmond saw the sign "Thistleburn - Experience the Medieval" - they thought of nothing more than finding a welcome respite from a fierce storm buffeting the Scottish highlands. But when morning comes, more than the weather has changed. Though still in Scotland, they discover they have been transported 700 years into the past.With little more than their wits to protect them, Lucy and Max are immediately branded as witches and locked in the castle dungeon to await the judgment of the Laird of Thistleburn, Sir Evan Lyells. His timely return brings an end to the first plot to burn them at the stake but makes a dangerous enemy of the castle's cunning English priest, Adair Beath. Lucy's ability to read (a talent previously reserved to Beath) and to speak foreign languages proves valuable to the brawny laird. Soon she is at his side regularly and an improbable chemistry begins to develop between the two. That chemistry ignites during a raucous banquet, featuring the cuisine of restaurateur Maxine, when Sir Evan reveals to Lucy the dark secret that has blackened his heart. For Lucy, the emptiness of her life in modern times has finally been filled but with a man--and in a century--to which she can never belong. THE SPELLBOX captures the passion of Lucy and Sir Evan in a backdrop of violence, rebellion, and treachery that was Scotland seven centuries ago. Two resourceful women survive the challenge and adventure of this mysterious journey, and when only one returns to modern time, the story that links the past, the present, and the future is complete.

customer 's review (LOVED IT!!)    
(Loved it !!!!!!!!!!!)    
(Great read!!)    
(Madeline Baker at her BEST!!!)    
(Love and Passion as pure as gold!)     This book is incredible! The heroine is newly widowed and inherits her late husbands family ranch, which is rumored to be haunted and cursed. Keeping her head level, she is anxious to get started on remodeling projects because she wants to get her mind off of her late husband's death. Things immediately start to take off from there, the "bumps" in the night, the cold breezes coming from nowhere, and the glimpes of "something" from the corner of her eye. When she decides that house really is haunted, she's more curious than afraid. The story unfolds into a wonderful heart warming tale that you'll want to read over and over and over again. I absolutely fell in love with the hero, and the story takes you places you've never been before. This one is a definite keeper, especially if you love stories that warm the heart. This book, a nice cozy blanket, and a nice hot cup of coffee are just what the doctor ordered! A lovely story of a ghost who was hanged for something he didn't do, given a second chance to change history. One of the best stories I have read. I shall be looking for more of Madeline's books in future. Loved this dook. I thought it was wonderful that Dalton was a ghost and fell in love with Kathy Before traveling back in time. I found their romance exciting and fun. I simply couldn't put down this book. I own many Madeline Baker books and love them all(except one), this one is no exception. This, like "First Love, Wild Love" is one of Madeline's books that will stay with me for a life time! Dalton Crowkiller is a man that will live in my memory forever. Like one of the other reviews said, "Eddie Little Sky" must have really made a lasting impression on Madeline when she modeled these characters after him. All I can say is that I am sorry that I never met him, but felt like I have after reading this book! Thank you Madeline for such a romantic, on the edge of your seat best book I have ever read. I will read it again and again The first third of the story is about Kathy meeting the ghost of Latoka half- breed, Dalton Crowkiller. This is easily one of the most heart- churning and innocent stories of building romance I've ever read. They can see one another, they can talk to one another, he can even hold her and kiss her for a moment. But his spiritual energy becomes weak, causing him to fade away if he spends the energy expressing his feelings. They are becoming so close in heart, but are so far from the ability to show it. Here is the story:Kathy has inherited a ranch from her late husband's family. No one has lived on the ranch for decades, because the place has a reputation for being haunted. Kathy moves in and begins rebuilding the more- than- century- year- old ranch house. She has a feeling that she is not alone. She thinks she has even seen a man outside her window. Who is he and why is he watching her? Dalton was the "fastest gun in the west", back in the 1870's. He worked as a hired gun. When a white woman seeks to seduce him, he turns her down because she is married. Angry, the woman accuses him of rape. Being a half- breed, he is not given a trial. He is whipped and hanged. With the rope placed around his neck, he vows to haunt the home and never give his killers peace. For 125 years, Dalton's spirit has hovered over the ranch where he was hanged. Bored and lonely, he finds fun in scaring the people who occasionally rent the house for vacations. He does so by taking people's keys, and by moving things around in the home. He does all he can to make his presence known, because no one can see him or hear him. This all changes when a woman moves into the home. He is amazed to learn that she can see him. She can even hear him and talk to him. Even more amazing: they can actually touch one another. Once her fear of this ghost fades, Kathy quickly becomes grateful for his presence. She has been lonely and grieving for her husband for over a year. This Lakota ghost quickly becomes her closest friend. He helps her rebuild her home and teaches her to ride a horse. Before long, their relationship builds just like the home they are restoring together. They are falling in love, but can not express it completely. Dalton pleads with God to give him another chance at life with Kathy. Kathy makes the same plea, realizing that Dalton has given her back what she has been missing for the past year: Hope. While out riding, the couple stops at "the hanging tree." This time, they make their heartfelt pleas together. As an answer to their pleas, they are sent back in time to a few weeks before Dalton's death. He is now whole and human again. They are given a chance to change the past together. Again, this is only the first third of the story! There is so much more ahead: They live in the town where Dalton was killed, travel together to Dalton's Lakota village, then travel to Boston to seek out his mother and get married. They both have a horrible feeling that their time together is limited. Feeling that everyday might be their last together, they spend what time they have showing their love for one another. When time runs out, will they be separated? Will he be allowed to return with her? He would even willingly become a ghost again if it meant being with Kathy. What will fate hand them? This couple is so beautiful together, I found myself nearly holding my breath while waiting to see if they would win their quest for a lifetime together. I felt every one of their highs and lows throughout the book. This is some excellent writting. Nearly 400 pages long, I read this book in one day. There was no point where I could put it down. Dalton Crowkiller is the kind of man a woman would sin for and die for, if she could only keep him in her arms. But the dangerous half-breed belongs to the untamed West, and he'd been claimed by another woman long ago. Time itself would keep him and Kathy apart--until he is given one last chance to change the course of his life. Rerations < Under a Prairie Moon (Leisure historical romance) >

customer 's review (Okay) 
(Sometimes Funny, Sometimes Poignant; Always Interesting)     I ordered this with several other time travel books by authors I did not know. This one was fair and a bit "sappy". The hero was too one dimensional to be realistic and the story very predicatable. George Tyler was a small-town sheriff in the late 1800s. When presented with a chance to take a friend's place in the future, he took it, certain that he'd return to his era and mission of vengeance.
Melody Song is alone, grieving, and pregnant. When a mysterious drifter saves her from a rogue wave at the beach, she is inexplicably drawn to him. Aware of the madness of bringing a strange man into her life, she nevertheless convinces George to play the part of "Michael George Johnson," Melody's nonexistent husband, for the sake of her dying grandmother.
Aside from time travel and marital lies, Melody and George soon learn something unusual is fermenting at the Sweet Song of Summer vineyards. Late night visits and too many close calls put George's lawman instincts on edge. What he discovers while nosing around may save the vineyard, and Melody's life. What he discovers while pretending to be Melody's husband may save his soul.
This is the sequel to Beverly Long's STAY WITH ME, the time-travel romance featuring Melody's best friend Sarah, who met the love of her life after being thrown back into the year 1888. Long's easygoing narrative makes it difficult to step away from her novels, even after the last page is turned. Her characters are deep and well crafted, and the settings are as beautiful as they are detailed.
Sometimes humorous--who needs a car when a good horse will see you through--sometime poignant, and always interesting, HERE WITH ME is an endearing romance that will connect with current and future readers' hearts.
Reviewed by Christina Wantz Fixemer 11/03/2006 After quitting her job, Melody Song is at a local beach when she is almost swept out to sea.

(Fantastic story.)     My opinion:
Excellent time-travel romance. I was impressed. The heroine was someone likable and real; the hero was typical of his time and yet likable as well. The supporting characters were just that, supporting. They didn't take too much attention away from the hero and heroine. Just enough to advance the story.
Very well written, and not too technical in the time-travel area. My only complaint is I felt a little stranded in regard to Nadine, Lord John's real wife. It was suggested in the book that perhaps her soul was actually switched with Kathryn's, therefore she was in the twentieth century. I would have liked to know what happened to her.
From the back:
A MOUSE OF A LIBRARIAN TURNED TO AN ELEGANT ENGLISH PEERESS --AND THAT WAS BUT THE BEGINNING....
Just jilted and very much mired in twentieth-century concerns, a rain-soaked Kathryn Hendrix sought refuge in a musty picture gallery whose only treasure was an eighteenth-century portrait of a stunning red-haired lady.
Suddenly, Kathryn found herself mysteriously transported two hundred years into the past, to that lady's opulent home, with the sneering Lord Elsingham for a husband and Lady Elsingham's body--and complicated domestic life--as her own!
Kathryn racked her poor, pretty head--how to return to her own time and place? But as Lord John's cold demeanor grew warmer, Kathryn began to hope she would be waylaid in history forever.... This is one of the earliest timetravel books I have read. It reminds me of "Linda Lael Miller's" That other Katherine (Haunting love stories).
Katheryn Hendrix has been jilted, finds herself in a gallery staring at a portrait of Nadine Ellsingham. Suddenly she finds herself in Nadine's body 200 years in the past. She soon finds out that her husband hates her&is about to return her to Ireland with her servant, the evil Donner. After being threatened with bedlam Katheryn runs away. She has told her husband&some of his friends where she has come from. Of course none believe her. She tells a member of the government about an upcoming battle at the start of the American war of independance. After running away to prevent her being committed, news comes that what Kathryn predicted comes true that they believe her. By the time they find her she is in the hands of Donner again&being accused of witchcraft...
Can John, her husband save her?..... Kathryn Hendrix, a twentieth century librarian, escapes from the rain one evening into a dusty, old gallery where the only treasure is a portrait of an eighteenth century gorgeous redhead by the name of Elsingham. All of a sudden, Kathryn finds herself in the body of Lady Elsingham two hundred years in the past. She finds that everything that belonged to Lady Elsingham-her life, her belongings, her body, and her sneering husband-now belong to her. Kathryn becomes desperate how to find her way home? But as her and Lord John became closer, and things began to heat up, Kathryn became to forget that she had ever wanted to leave, for now all she wishes to do is stay in the arms of the evermore intoxicating Lord John.

(What a SURPRIZE!)    
(Devlin&Jackson combine for a very good time travel romance)    I had looked foward to reading this book for quite some time. I must say that I was VERY disappointed when I actually read it. The heroine was just to stupid to live as for as I am concerned. First off, she is supposed to be some kind of authority on the time period that she finds herself in. She is well aware of the fact that women are at the mercy of their male relatives. Yet she often does things that no one with an ounce of common sense would even consider doing. Yes she did lot's of re-enactments at fairs. But she makes the comment herself, that it is nothing like living in the real time and a real war. She constantly acts and talks to the men of this era as if she is still in the present. She states that she is aware of what can happen to a woman in this time period who does not have the protection of a father or a husband, and then wanders off alone. I guess we were suspossed to feel that she was strong and competent. I only felt that she was stupid. Can't really recall that much about the hero. I only remember thinking that he should have left the idiot to her on devices. This was one of the best books I have read about time travel. I love the description of the times and event happening. The hero is everything a woman dreams of in a man,he's strong, assertive and when it comes to Jacq he's madly in love with her willing to do anything for her. I also enjoy when Jacq retains her own personality and contributes to helping him win the battles. Jacq is intriguing and assertive and for a woman in her time, she is amazing both in her 20th century place and finds love in the arms of her warlord back in his time. This is not a book to be missed. I will be reading it over and over again.Jacq's Warlord This book was excellent, the story kept you turning the pages. Hated to see it end, would love to read a story continueing with other characters from this book A very good time travel romance; in fact, if I could have given it 4.5 stars I probably would have.
A very tall (over six feet), stacked 21st century woman, raised by her Special Forces father in all the normal boy pursuits (including martial arts and SCA sword fighting), misuses a family treasure and finds herself back in 12th century England, during the war of succession that ended with Henry I (Matilda's son) on the throne. There she meets the first man to ever make her feel womanly and sexy, huge and built Rufus of Rathburn. As she tutors her at-first-reluctant student in the arts of guerilla warfare and bomb-making, and gets tutored in uninhibited sex, she finds herself having to make a choice whether her future lies in the 21st or the 12th century.
Like the rest of Delilah Devlin's most recent books (maybe Jackson's collaboration helped, or is it Devlin's maturation as a writer? In any case), this book shows dramatically improved writing compared to her earlier efforts. Sentence structure, grammar and punctuation are all very strong, as are both plot and character development.
So why didn't I give it five stars? Although the book is well written, and a very pleasant way to while away a few hours, especially if you like passionate sex with your romances, the plot is just a little too...predictable? Similar to other time travel romances?
Maybe the problem is with me. I've read the Diana Gabaldon time-travel romances, and I've probably read another dozen or so time-travel romances besides hers. Even though I've enjoyed those other time-travel romances, some of them quite a lot (like this one), none of them have been written at the same level as any of the Gabaldon series.
So, in my opinion, the overall impact of this novel on me is about a half star to a star less than the impact of a Gabaldon novel, but that doesn't make this a bad review at all. It's really quite a good book.

With proportions that would make Xena weep, Jaqueline Frazier despairs of ever finding a lover she won't squash like a bug. Everything changes the day she ignores an itty-bitty warning regarding the use of a family heirloom and finds herself swept off her feet by a knight in not so shining armor, back to the twelfth century. Eeek! No toilet paper, no cell phones and no junk food! Embroiled in the adventure of a lifetime yet forced to accept the protection of the overbearing beast of a man, Rufus of Rathburn, Jacq struggles to find her place in the past while searching for a way back to the future. In the meantime, she aids Rufus' war cause with a little 21st-century ingenuity. Nothing like shaking up the warlord with lessons in bomb-making, guerilla tactics and the joys of sex. At first unwilling and downright ungrateful, Rufus begins to see merit in Jacq's odd ways. Perhaps because of her eccentricities, Rufus learns of a love and lust that break the barriers of time. But will their love be strong enough for Jacq to plot a different future in the past? Rerations < Jacq's Warlord >

(A Break in Time)    
(Must Read)     The follow up book to A Bend in Time is a fast paced, action adventure with enough romance to burn up the pages.
Can Dane and Skye survive a jungle tribe, a mad scientist, and Druids long enough to relaize their feelings for one another? Dane Fortune and Skye Ransom have traveled back in time again trying to get back to the present. They hope to prevent the death of Skye's parents. As a hit man for the CIA, Dane was sent to kill them. Now, he and Skye are trying to prevent it from happening while being thrown farther and farther back in time. No longer enemies, Skye and Dane grow closer as the danger mounts. Someone has been following them and he wants Skye and Dane out of his way for good.
I highly recommend reading A Bend in Time, the first Ransom and Fortune book, before A Break in Time. A Break in Time will be confusing otherwise. A Break in Time takes Skye and Dane on one adventure after another. They adapt well to each situation and the thrills never end. All the while, I was waiting for them to share another hot, steamy kiss! Skye and Dane have great chemistry. Even when they are arguing you can feel their connection. A Break in Time is a little like Back To The Future meets Indiana Jones. It's full of excitement, action, and danger and it's a lot of fun.
Nannette reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed Miles is a truly gifted writer who captures her readers with her adventursome tales. Her creativity is astonishing - romantic time travel adventure - finally, something unique! This is the 2nd book in a series and what a great movie both would make. I am picturing Colin Farel as Dane - bad guy turns good guy!!! I think the writer might like the bad boys like myself haha!!! The truth could set them freeor tear them apart forever. Book 2 of the Adventures of Ransom and Fortune. At the mercy of a faulty time machine, Skye Ransom and Dane Fortune are forced to randomly leap through time on a wild, roller-coaster ride of danger as they try to get back to the 21st century. Each jump sends them farther away from home, but brings their hearts closer together in a bond that not even a time bender can sever. Getting back home may be the least of their worries. Warmed by Skyes love, Danes soul struggles against that of the cold, unfeeling man he once was. Skyes had enough of witnessing history firsthand. Yet finally getting home could mean shell lose Dane forever. Worshipped by a jungle tribe, thwarted by a mad scientist, and captured by powerful Druids, Skye and Dane face the ultimate test of survival. Even if they get through it alive, will they be able to overcome their strongest enemy to datethemselves? Warning: This title contains explicit sex and graphic language.
