I do not know when I have ever enountered a more idiotic heroine than Cora Talmadge from this book. Cora has been talked by her friend Jenny into parachuting. Since this is her first jump, she is going to be strapped to the instructor who turns out to be Adrian de Vargas, Cora’s old boyfriend….
I’m not a fan of time-travels, mostly because they rarely work, are often confusing, and the method and purpose of the time-travel is either unclear or badly done. Angie Ray’s A Knight to Cherish is a pleasant exception that I enjoyed very much. Shy and pretty Francine Peabody has a good job as an accountant,…
Most of us just get drenched from falling into a fountain. We don’t end up traveling to another time – and we definitely don’t do it twice. Flynn Patrick is reluctantly returning to England to attend a wedding at Merestun. During the reception he stumbles headlong into a fountain and emerges from the very same…
Can you imagine living in a world where there are no real men, only men who were created in a lab or workshop? Can you imagine living a life where you never have the joy of having a father, brother or husband and the only reason you exist is because you were cloned? For Nina…
I always like a good time-travel romance. My only question: Where are they? A good time-travel, indeed any paranormal, requires a certain level of depth to the story in order to avoid having the metaphysical elements come across as too simplistic. Time-travel – especially in romance novels – is a fascinating concept but, in order…
Lady of the Night is one of those reads that contains good ingredients but never manages to transform them into something special. I read it in one sitting, but I did sigh from time to time, ever hoping it would make a last minute turnaround. Katharina Ferguson is visiting haunted castles in England when she…
Fans of time travel and suspense might like Susan Plunkett’s latest novel. It’s overstuffed with both, though, so that the relationship between the two main characters suffers. With all that action going on, the love relationship doesn’t have enough time or space devoted to it. Caladonia Hornsby is hiding from her father’s murderers when she…
Don’t you absolutely despise romances with heroines who are models? River of Dreams has just such a heroine, but thank goodness Ms. Lykins manages to swoop her out of the present and into the past, where she is not a model. Fortunately as well, River of Dreams is a well crafted, interesting read. Brianne Davis…
When Veils of Time arrived in my mailbox I did a little happy dance. Maggie Shayne and Lynn Kurland are two my most beloved authors. Surprisingly, it wasn’t their stories that left a lasting impression on me but that of new-to-me author Ingrid Weaver.
Eugenia Riley, author of time-travel romance, turns to comedy with her latest, Bushwacked Bride, part of LoveSpell’s Wink and a Kiss series. The novel, while clipping along at a brisk pace with a large cast of characters, devolves quickly into the slapstick tomfoolery suggested by the title and never recovers the note of disdainful amusement…
