(Two Cultures Meet, but it's Nothing to Rhapsodize About)
Julia is an FBI Special Agent working to stop a gang of money launders on a Navajo reservation. Through sheer coincidence, something happens to bring back to life Benjamin Two Eagle, a Navajo Singer (shaman) who has been trapped in one of his amulets for over a century. Obsessed with finding his amulets, Benjamin teams up with Julia to take on not only the criminals, but the tribal police as well, and eventually they fall in love.

This book could have been really good, particularly if one is interested in the Southwest, Navajo culture, and/or magic. It has all the elements of a great story; however, Thurlow's delivery is unconvincing. The character's dialog is marred when they express things that, logically, they should know and take for granted. The reader might not know these things, of course, and that's why they're included. But they rob the story of realism and, consequently, suspense. The lack of realism (a paradoxical rule for any creative work trying to present a convincing supernatural image or event, but true nonetheless) also makes the magic in this novel unbelievable and ridiculous.

As for the romantic tension between Benjamin and Julia, it has it's moments but is essentially non-existent through most of the book. The conclusion, as well, is a severe let-down, and the reader remains unconvinced that the couple can overcome their differences and build a pernament future together.

TIMEWALKER is not a completely awful book, but it's not worth the price of ordering it out-of-print. Buy it from a used book store for fifty cents and be prepared to throw it away when you're finished.
TIME AFTER TIME

To save his people, Navajo medicine man Benjamin Two Eagles poured his soul into an ancient amulet. For over one hundred years he had been lost in time, until a beautiful woman set him free into a world he did not understand.

She was a tough-as-nails special agent with the FBI, but Julia Stevens was also a woman, and not invulnerable to the magnificent warrior she had released into this century. But Benjamin's quest to avenge the wrongs done to his people went against every law she'd sworn to uphold.

Could they find a way to let justice be done before another grain of sand dropped in time's hourglass and Benjamin was forced to once again walk through time?

(Communication Problems Mar Plot)

(disappointing)

(Not as romantic as i thought it would be)

(GREAT READ!!)
This book showed promise. The author deftly shows the differences between the Regency era and the modern era by the responses of her modern-day heroine and Regency-era hero. However, the miscommunications bewteen the Leah and David kept the book from getting a higher grade.

We get some insight into David's character. But we didn't get to know Leah that well. By the time we learned her background, it didn't jive with the way she acted.

At All About Romance, I gave this book a C.
I'm sorry to have to disagree with the other reviews. I am an avid reader and enjoy most time travel romances. However I found this book to be boring without much character development.I found it difficult to believe their romance and actually had difficulty finishing the book. I'm sorry to say I won't be looking for this author's name again.
the story and everything was good and surprisingly well written, but the relationship between Leah and David was only about two beautiful people trying to find someone who would rival their own beauty. Their love is about as shallow as the spring itself.
I have now read over 100 time travel books and this is one of my favorites. I am on line now looking to see if she wrote anymore.
Be careful what you wish for... England, 1999. American tourist Leah Cantrell finds an antique coin in a spring--and tosses it back, wishing to know who'd first placed it there... England, 1815. David Traymore, illegitimate son of a Marquis, has always dreamed of belonging to someone. Then he rescues a beguiling woman of strange attire from a spring on the estate. Is she a madwoman? A spy for Napoleon? Or simply the woman of his dreams?

(Not the most believable romance. . .)

(Ten hot pepper rating!)
After seeing kellytwo's gushing endorsement of this ten-year-old book, I found a copy of it in my TBR pile and started reading it.

Okay, she was right about the bedroom scenes being hot, but there were a lot of things that bothered me about this book. First of all, both the heroine and her counterpart from the 19th century are guilty of adultery, which is something that bothers me in ANY romance, but particularly a Regency.

Secondly, it seems odd that when the two change places--as they do several times--they are in each other's bodies, but not really. I mean, the real Rosalind is pregnant, but when Kathryn is in Rosalind's body, she is NOT pregnant. Okay, I know this is fiction, but this is just not believable.

Thirdly, I find it difficult to believe that the whole of this novel takes place in a matter of three days, and even more unlikely, when Kathryn (in Rosalind's body) explains the whole thing to Rosalind's husband. . . only MINUTES after he killed Rosalind's lover in a duel, that he is in any frame of mind to even listen to her incredible story, let alone BELIEVE it. I mean, the guy has just killed a man because of her, as he had done with his first wife as well. . . and yet he was calm enough to listen to her outlandish explanation and forgive her on the spot???

Fourthly, it really bothered me that although it was Rosalind who was working so hard to switch places with Kathryn, she always managed to mess things up when she returned to the past. I mean, if Rosalind knew that her lover was going to be killed and she was already planning to escape to the future, why would she keep sending him messages for her husband to intercept? It was almost like she was deliberately trying to sabotage things for Kathryn. . . who she expected to clean up the mess she left behind. Oh, I know the author tried to explain this by insisting that "the basic facts of history" could not be changed, but let's face it, Dane left with a faithful, loving wife rather than a pregnant, cheating wife HAD to change the basic facts of history, even if the author conveniently left this out.

All in all, I have to say that I really don't care for "innovations" such as time travel and paranormal activities in a Regency, especially when they aren't logical or believable. And frankly, these books are too short to allow the kind of depth that would be necessary. So many "required" elements of a Regency were left out in exchange for the time travel plot, which was sketchy at best.

Ten or so years ago, in an attempt to expand the readership for Regency novels, the two major publishers of these books-Signet and Zebra-added elements of fantasy, time-travel or sensuality. Not all of the books contained all of these elements, but apparently a majority of the readers didn't want any of them, so it was back to the traditional again. This was greatly aided by the appearance of Colin Firth in the A&E/BBC production of "Pride and Prejudice". A good trade, if you ask me. Except . . .

Some authors can handle all of these added ingredients with zest and gusto, creating a world previously not thought of by us more ordinary mortals. Such an author is Sandra Heath. MAGIC AT MIDNIGHT is a time-travel that moves from contemporary New York to Regency Gloucester in the blink of an eye-and back again! There are definite fantasy rudiments, as well. As to the sensuality? Well. It would be advisable to wear flame-proof gloves while holding this book to read it. Or at least one such glove on one hand while the other holds a fan, vigorously wielded. Mercy!

This is NOT a weak-kneeed, lily-livered Regency novel; not meant for the more timorous reader, either. And, for once, a cover quote is completely accurate. No less an expert than Mary Balogh offers this opinion: "Brilliant time travel . . . sizzling sensuality."

Kathryn Vansomeren had it all: a handsome architect husband, a job with a TV station, and a gorgeous apartment in New York City-and a baby on the way. Then, the job went sour, she lost the baby, her husband's work became over-demanding, and the final straw-their long-anticipated vacation in England had to be postponed. Or did it? Just because Philip couldn't go didn't necessarily mean that Kathryn had to stay home. So she didn't.

Lady Marchwood-Rosalind-was `given' in marriage to a man she could not like, let alone love, leaving her vulnerable to the more gentle charms of a neighbor, Thomas Denham. Sir Dane Marchwood will not be a complacent husband, conveniently looking the other way. In fact, when he sees the two in what he thinks an amorous embrace, he challenges Thomas to a duel.

Kathryn and Rosalind alternate identities, before agreeing on the only sensible solution, one that will-in time-benefit each of them. History cannot, of course, be changed.

The descriptions of Regency Gloucester blend into the modern setting with a smoothness that has to be read to be appreciated, but then, this is the author's home city. She knows it well, and utilizes the surrounding area as an added character in the book. Marchwood Castle may not exist-may never have existed-but it is indeed very real on these pages. This is another on the long list of masterful novels by this gifted author. Be warned, however, there is more than sweet kisses between the lovers. Keep that fan handy!

Rosalind leaves the twentieth century behind and finds herself torn between maddening heights of ecstacy with Sir Dane Marchwood and the loving adoration of Thomas Denham. From the author ofThe Makeshift Marriage.

(A Sweet, Enchanting Romance)

(a very sweet book)

(The Devil is in the Details)

(Tinker Belle)

(Loved this book!)
I must start by saying I don't normally like time travel books but I picked this book because it sounded interesting. I was not disappointed.

This is the story of Barrett Overbrook. She is at a point in her life where she isn't exactly happy being. She drives to a bed and breakfast where her life changes completely. She falls asleep and wakes up giving birth in the 1880's! She also discovers she's married and has a biracial brother-in-law.

This story was romantic, funny and sweet! Barrett, a.k.a. Elizabeth, is funny trying to adjust to the new time she is in. She slips up and says the funniest things for the time period she is in. Her husband, Chase, doesn't understand the drastic changes in his wife. The stiff, formal Elizabeth has undergone a dramatic change during childbirth. She is a completely different person. Barrett, during a conversation with her guardian angel Mr. Gideon, discovers she has been brought back in time and is stuck there until she learns to love and accepts love. Her feelings toward Mr. Gideon are quite hilarious.

I can't express enough how much I loved this book. The storyline was wonderful. The characters were well developed and seemed real. Chase was a great character. The character of Wes seemed to really add to the story. Mr. Gideon added to the story also. I couldn't wait to find out what happened next and read this book in one day. The story was written so well that there were not any dull periods in it. It read smoothly from one chapter to the next and was just an all around great read. This is a feel good story. A keeper for anyones library.
This is the first book I've read by this author and I really enjoyed it. I was able to read it all in one day and I had to work today too. Its an easy read and made my day brighter.

This is a time travel book where the heroine, a modern woman named Barrett, meets up with her guardian angel Gideon. Gideon sees that her life is very unfullfilling. She has never known love even from her family and he decides there is only one way to show what love is. Send her back in time to 1887. She arrives in the body of a woman named Elizabeth who is giving birth. What an entrance. Elizabeth's husband and half brother are attending her. They can't quite figure out how the prim, proper, and very unassuming Elizabeth has sudden turned into this vocal, independant self assured woman who demand to be Barrett. Barrett has no clue as to how she has arrived. she thinks its a bad dream. She soon discovers though that its all real and she now has a baby and a angry and remote husband to deal with.

Over time she becomes adjusted to her new life and longs to have a real relationship with Chase, her husband. But something she knows nothing about stands in the way. Chase is confused and still hurt by past events but cannot deny the strong feelings he has for Barrett.

This is a sweet story with wonderful secondary characters. I will have to read more from this author.
When reading a story, I understand many look for realistic details to make them feel a part of the characters. Waiting For Yesterday certainly is long on details. In my opinion, the author could have left out the unsavory descriptions of childbirth(a man's hand shoved up into the heroine's uterus), the disgusting vivid account of breast engorgement(and breast milk shooting across the room), baby biological functions(specifically descriptions of feces being smeared on the heroine). I could go on, but I'm sure by now you get the picture.

If it weren't for the unnecessary descriptions, which fill an abundance of pages in this book, the story could have been enjoyed more. I do admit to finishing the book, due to interest in how Barrett, the main character, would choose her fate.

Normally, I would give a short detailed description of the overall story, but I won't bother this time since I sincerely suggest spending your reading entertainment dollars on a different book!
This book was wonderful. Most time travel just sorta have the people show up. They never seem confused or concerned. They act like it's an everyday occurence. Ms Lykins gives a whole new meaning to the word time travel. They are very innovative and the people in her stories act confused, concerned and scared. They pull from an inner strength they never realized they possesed to deal with the situation. If you enjoy time travel and a good love story, you'll love any of Ms. Lykins books.
This was one of the most unusual time travels I've ever read. I really enjoyed the method of travel as well as the twin storyline. I've researched this time period extensively, and I can say the author pulled me into the story with her convincing setting and wonderful plot. I highly recommend this book.
Emotionally desolate after her ex-boyfriend marries her twin sister, Barrett Overbrook checks into a quaint bed-and-breakfast in Columbus, Ohio, only to awaken the next morning in the year 1887, caught in the pains of imminent childbirth. Original."

(Read This!)

(Great Read)

(Different Twist to Time Travel)

(Good Story)

(A great time travel romance!)
My absolute favorite of this genre, combing the best of "time travel" and "period romance" without being silly. Great dialog underscores the wonderful character development. Ending may be a bit melodramatic and/or predictable, but satisfying none the less. A definite read.
This was a fun uplifting book. I read it in about 3 days. A very interesting time travel with a good versus evil theme. Nick and Anna are likeable characters. Without giving away the plot, I will say that some current topics are discussed as problems in the 18th century. This book is a great vacation read.
This is different because usually the heroine is transported back in time and this time it is the hero who goes back. After being involved in a terrible vehicle accident he is transported to the regency era into the body of Godfrey, husband of Anna. Godfrey was wounded in a horse accident in his time and takes Nick's place in the modern hospital. We quickly find out Anna is a battered wife and wonder why she bothers to even save Godfrey. As he starts to heal Anna and the staff start to recognize startling changes in Godfrey (Nick). The most startling, he's acting human and actually nice. Of course, Anna falls in love with her new husband but it takes a while to trust him.
In my opinion - not a keeper - but a story that kept me reading to find out how things would be resolved. I read this in one day. Predictable to a point, but the ending was totally unexpected. I really liked the characters, especially Nick. This is the only book I have read by this author, and I am definitely going to try to find her other books. I would recommend this book if you are interested in a light, quick read.
I prefer time travel romances and this one was not only great but what I consider a keeper, a book to be read and reread. Reminded me of "When There Is Hope" by Jane Goodger but with the twist of the male lead time traveling. If you enjoy Regencies and time travel, don't miss this one.
London, 1997. Detective Nick DaCosta had lost nearly everything. His partner had been in a coma for almost a month. His badge was taken away. It seemed the only thing left was an old photo kept in his wallet, a picture of a paradise he's never seen. So when Nick's car goes crashing into cemetery gates during a storm, he fears he's also about to lose his life...The Dover Coast, 1810. When Nick wakes, he finds himself in the body of a Regency dandy who was thrown from a horse, not a car. And his battered body now belongs to another man--Godfrey Woodbaine. Godfrey's wife, Anna despises him so much she is tempted to let him die. But as Nick recovers, she finds he is not the horrible man she remembered. In fact, she could almost fall in love...and Nick is equally enthralled. Perhaps it is finally his time--to see paradise...

(Beautifully Done)

(THREE TERRIFIC REVIEWS!!)
This is a time travel story that takes place when a successful entertainment attorney, Katherine (Kate), decides to take a spontaneous trip after experiencing strange dreams that make her long for something more out of life. She divorced years ago and is alone in the world except for two close friends who co-own a talent agency with her. Her trip to Northern California takes her to a small town and while on a walk along a river bed she slips and hits her head after seeing a vision of an Indian woman waving to her. When she wakes up she finds herself rescued by a reclusive mountain man. Although he speaks with a refined English accent, her giant rescuer is hidden behind a scruffy beard and long hair and he acts like someone out of the previous century. Kate wonders why she finds this man attractive after the two years of celibacy since her divorce. Flynt Avery wonders about the strange woman he finds. Although she dresses like a loose woman, she acts and talks like a prim lady. Flynt wonders why he finds himself attracted to this woman after two years of reclusiveness after the disappearance and presumed death of his wife, Little Deer. When Kate insists he take her to the nearest town, she is shocked to discover she has traveled back in time to the late 1800's. She pleads with Flynt to take her back with him, but then he is taunted by an arrogant French gambler who claims Flynt killed his wife. During their fight, Flynt is knifed and nearly killed by the Frenchman. Kate takes Flynt to a boarding house ran by two friendly spinsters and helps nurse him back to health. During his recovery, Flynt keeps having a strange dream where he is alone in the woods and a cougar approaches him and appears to be ready for attack. During Flynt and Kate's time at the boardinghouse they fall in love and she returns with him back to the cabin. They become lovers and decide they will marry, although neither one is certain Kate will remain in this time. Flynt's Indian grandfather warns that there is danger and uncertainty ahead, but that the two will not say goodbye. Before they can do anything, Flynt is accused of the murder of the Frenchman's wife and son and it is up to Kate to save him from the hangman's noose. They also must figure out what their dreams mean, although it is now clear that Little Deer sent Kate to save Flynt from hanging.

This is a wonderful story, but there are a couple of small flaws. The author does a pretty good story of describing Flynt's background, but there are too many gaps in Kate's. Also, the love scenes seem rushed and hurried as though the author feels obligated to add them in and is hurrying through them. Otherwise, I found it to be beautifully done.

Jill Marie Landis says: "Outstanding! THIS TIME TOGETHER is the perfect blend of romance, adventure and magic."

Rendezvous Reviews: "It kept me spellbound. This author knows how to combine the paranormal, history, fiery passion and romance to produce a first rate novel. I loved it."

Romantic Times: THIS TIME TOGETHER is sensuous and heart-rending...The reader will not be disappointed as Ms. Liepitz weaves a fascinating, captivating time-travel to steal romance reader's hearts..."
When Katherine Marhsall, an entertainment lawyer, dreams of living a simpler, slower-paced life, she suddenly awakens in a nineteenth-century log cabin populated by a handsome mountain man.

(Surprisingly amusing tales of ghost, pirates, and bandits)
"Tales of a Traveller" is certainly not as well known as Irving's "Sketch Book" (which includes his famous stories "Rip van Winkle" and "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow"). When it was originally published in 1824, it was heavily criticized as both derivative and indecent. The criticism was so intense that Irving abandoned the writing of fiction and wrote history, biography, and folklore for the remainder of his career.

Yet, two centuries later, the stories have dated well. I'll return to whether the stories can be considered offensive, but modern readers' lack of familiarity with the sources that Irving apparently copied makes the accusation of imitation somewhat moot. In addition to being remarkably readable (and they are certainly never boring), many of the stories seem fresh and even modern.

The collection is divided into four parts: the first, "Strange Stories by a Nervous Gentleman," is a group of ghost stories (many of them notable for their lack of "real" ghosts). Irving uses the framing technique of a friend relating an overnight stay in an old mansion with a group of gentlemen trapped by a storm. They tell each other ghost stories, and in some of these the characters themselves tell tales (stories within stories within stories). The second section, "Buckthorne and His Friends," includes humorous anecdotes about the backgrounds of a group of eccentric authors attending a dinner. "The Italian Banditti" features stories of the highway robbers who afflict travelers in Italy; this section reads almost like a romantic Western novel. And, finally, "The Money Diggers" claims to be the long-lost papers of Diedrich Knickerbocker (Irving's fictional author of "A History of New York"); these spirited yarns of pirates and buried treasure set in and around the island of Manhattan are pure entertainment.

There are a number of surprising nuggets here: too many, in fact, to single them out. Although modern readers will find it difficult to see what's offensive about this collection (some readers were apparently insulted by Irving's portrayal of Englishmen, for example), there's one rather scandalous and delightfully creepy ghost story, "The Adventure of the German Student," that deserves special comment. Without giving too much away, let's just say that it can only be read as a story about necrophilia and goes further than anything even Poe ever wrote.

It's difficult to find this book in an inexpensive standalone volume, but it is available in a relatively affordable edition (which also includes "Bracebridge Hall" and "The Alhambra") published by The Library of America.

Washington Irving is one of America's most enduring, and beloved authors. For nothing else, people know Washington Irving as the author of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow."Tales of a Travelerwas written in 1824, under the pseudonym "Geoffrey Crayon, Gent." One of Irving's better-known pseudonyms was Diedrich Knickerbocker, a name inextricably linked to New York City, and to today's New York Knicks.Tales of a Travelertells a number of humorous stories and anecdotes about exotic dinners and the European travels of Geoffrey Crayon and his colorful relatives. Full of dry wit,Tales of a Travelerwill please readers today as much as it pleased them in the early 19th century.

(A Great Read)

(Small Disappointment)

(wonderful!)

(Once you start reading, you can't put it down!)
I enjoyed this book. I love time travel romance novels and this book is one of the reasons why.
Point In Time was a surprise to me in that it seemed repetitious and predictable. I was not especially drawn to Thorn, and contemplated putting this book down before finishing it. I was surprised also by the 5 star rating it had. I must say I have read better books.
the characters are realstic, and the plots is fasinating, a must-read for a rainy day.
Point in Time by Linda O. Johnston is a well written book. It has everything from suspense to steamy romance. The hero and heroine is well matched. Their supporting characters are humerous, loyal, and fit right in with the theme of the book. The entire range of human emotions are depicted in Point In Time. From the gentle first kiss of a would be lover to the demented mind of a killer, Linda O. Johnston leaves nothing out. I highly recommend this book to romance lovers.
As a successful Hollywood executive, Mariah is on the lookout for the perfect screenplay, and while scouting locations in Pittsburgh, she thinks she has it. With an old-fashioned setting and Thorn, a hero to die for, she knows it will make a great movie. But something will have to be done about the ending--Thorn is too great a character to die. Then a visit to a historic park sent Mariah back in time--to frontier Fort Pitt, where she is rescued by a very real Thorn.

(Unexpected Gem)

(The Best Yet!)

(A treasure of a book)

(So much for Time Travel)
I bought this, used, more or less as a joke. I am not a fan of romance novels, and this one seemed too ridiculous to pass up. I started to read it, and it all seemed very typical - but I couldn't put it down! It was just too good! Not only was it better written than most of the romantic drivel I've read, it was fun. And, the romantic scenes were great, and inspired great nights! As a skeptic, and even as a history major, I can recommend this book. A tremendous lot of fun!
I've read ALL of Thomasina Ring's books (Time Spun Treasures, Dream Catcher, and Time Spun Rapture) and they just keep getting better. (too bad the last two are out of print, but maybe the publisher will bring them back!) Not only are they historically accurate, they're titillating, and let's face it, that's why we read romance, isn't it? Believe me, once you start reading the story of Meredith Davis, you won't be able to put it down! I hope the author graces us with a new book very soon!
Of all the Romance novels I've read, I like Time-Spun Treasure the best. The author skillfully induces the reader into suspending reality and accepting the possibility that people--and their possessions--can travel back through time. Along the way she employs clever devices such as 20th century colored contact lenses to confuse 18th century denizens. The story is a blend of science fiction, historical novel, and murder mystery...all deftly woven together in the context of a scorching love affair. The plot is a page-turner and the dénouement quite satisfying. I give it two thumbs up and four stars.

SS in ValP
I didn't like this book, not the heroine, nor the hero. You can't tell me that a aunt could murder two women and several babies under the hero's nose and he not know it. I found the heroine a ditz and the hero to be a fool. I know that not everyone carries a high IQ, but neither are people really that stupid. I had hoped for better.
Attending a historical reenactment, modern woman Meredith Davis finds herself sent back in time more than two hundred years where she marries a Colonial man and discovers that the twentieth-century men she knows had been lacking in skills of love. Original."

(Sizzling! Couldnt put the book down!)

(Nice but...)

(Powerful Women Fighters Meet their Matches - GOOD!)

(Original and Thought Provoking)

(Pretty good (maybe 4.5 stars).)
I found this book to be " a could not put down'! I stayed up late several nights to get it read! It has all the elements, romance,time travel,From the days of Viking history to the future, and incorporates a romance that fuses the future!
It just smolders, keeps you on the edge of your seat,you can actually 'transform' into the book, between the centuries!
I think it is a great setup for a movie or TV series!The lovescenes are very hot/steamy yet boiling in desire with true love for each other!
I have since bought "Trespass of the Heart"( another awesome read..just as captivating!) Samantha is an excellent writer! I am so glad to had recieved "Savior"!
Thanks!!

Don't understand me wrong, I actually liked the book for the same reasons as the other reviewers but only up to a certain point. When the hero sodomized the heroine in a fit of jealousy and there were NO repercussions whatsoever the book lost it for me.
Your choice if you like something like that, just be warned.

If you liked the TV show Xeena, Warrior Princess, this book might appeal to you. The herione is a tough, well-trained knight of the future who travels back in time to complete missions for her boss (who looks like Yoda of Star Wars). She has supernatural abilities and slices enemies into pieces right and left with her special powers (she even has a light saber). It gets a bit gruesome. She meets her match many centuries back in time, though. While there is a lot of violence, this is a sensual romance. In fact, several secondary characters fall in love. I liked it.

This book has an element that I enjoy -- the story continues long after the couple has confessed love and married. I like to see a relationship deepen and continue. The plot keeps them plenty busy.

I hope she writes many more books.
Saviour in time by Samantha Gail is a time travel story with a very unique twist. A twist that is allowed by iUniverse the publishers but not by many of the others who publish time travel romances. The twist in this novel is that the time travel here takes place though a machine and is not only deliberate but with the purpose of altering the past.

Remala Picard-Moreau is a Knight of the Order of Shaynvar and lives in the twenty-second century. She is a guardian of time travel who is ordered on missions through time.

Her latest mission is to go back to the year 976AD and rescue a small village from destruction.

Beravael is the King of Birasett, a Viking warrior and a man used to getting exactly what he wants. And what he wants is Remala as his queen. He believes that she has been sent by the Gods to help him and he intends to keep her with him.

However Remala is not prepared to abandon the Order of Shaynvar and remain in the past forever. But she is conspired against from all sides and tricked into marriage with Beraveal.

I don't want to spoil the whole plot for those who have not read this book but it is well worth reading just for the answers to some of those time travel questions that no one else seems to want to answer.

How much should someone going back in time interfere?

Should a time traveller be allowed to take technology from the future back in time?

What would happen if there were no limits to how much you can meddle in the past?

All these questions and more are dealt with thoughtfully and without detracting from the main story of Remala and Beravael.

As with the author's other two books, TRESPASS OF THE HEART and CHERISHED INVADER, I really liked SAVIOR IN TIME, but I cannot give it 5 stars. Ms. Gail always seems to introduce a subplot or character that never goes anywhere. In this book (since it travels back and forth in time) I can understand the changing sets of characters and plots, but it does get a little confusing.
For example, there was a whole page put in about two little village girls who had absolutely no bearing on the story and made you think you had two more characters to keep up with. Don't get me wrong--I LIKED the book and DO recommend it. I just think the author has this idiosyncrasy in her books.

Remala Picard-Moreau, Knight of the Order of Shaynvar, lives to serve and protect in the twenty-second century. As guardians of time travel and sentinels of space, the revered Shaynvar Knights shoulder a heavy weight of responsibility extending across the galaxy and beyond. Sent back to the year 976AD to rescue a small village from destruction, Remala finds herself tricked into a binding marriage by the wily and irresistible King of Birasett. As Remala struggles desperately to fulfill her obligations in both centuries, she inadvertently embarks them all on a collision course with annihilation.
