To me there is wallpaper Medieval and Medieval-lite. Lynn Kurland is definitely in the lite category. Her Medieval and time travels may not show the daily grit of life in the past, but she manages to give us the flavor all wrapped up in a nice lighthearted bow. Her latest is not without its problems…
What to do with a book that makes you laugh at the top of the page and want to hurl it into the nearest wall at the bottom? Such is A Hoboken Hipster in Sherwood Forest. Chrissie, said Hoboken Hipster, finds herself a photographic assignment in a Medieval re-enactment faire. Somewhere along the way her…
After writing down my initial thoughts about Here with Me, I decided to read the AAR review for its prequel, Stay with Me, just to make sure I wasn’t missing something. Turns out that my reaction to this book was exactly the same as Lori’s was to the earlier one: we found nothing wrong with…
I will give almost any time travel romance a shot and I think it’s because of the fated aspect of the romance – that shot of kismet that will draw a woman or man from present times to a time in the past in order to be with their soul’s mate. I’ve read a lot…
Sandra Hill’s time traveling Vikings are back for another trip. Rough and Ready has a lot of farcial episodes and plenty of ultra-hot sex, but it lacks the touch of poignancy that made the early books in this series something special. Torolf Magnusson, son of Magnus, the Very Virile Viking, time traveled from 11th century…
For a novel that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, Tempting the Wolf was generally enjoyable. I included time travel as the type of romance because the back cover blurb mentions it, but truly it has no impact on the story whatsoever and any traveling through time has long since happened. This is what…
I am always eager to get my hands on a good time travel book. Some of my all- time faves feature time travel. I will generally give anything in this genre a shot. Not being a big fan of the Roaring Twenties, I’m glad I pick this one despite the time period. Dora Duncan is…
This book gave me the mother of all headaches. Most likely because my brow was knitted together from the “What the…?” face I made during the entire reading. Sadly to say, the author took a rather interesting premise (which she got from her editor: see acknowledgments) and turned it into a disaster. Cathy Voorhees just…
Welcome to a fantasyland where women are few, men are plentiful, and, although women are mostly cherished, romance is rarely a part of their existence. Portrait of a Man takes place thousands of years in the future, as well as in the present day and is obviously a part of a series that began with…
History really does come to life for three museumgoers in the time travel anthology Perfect Timing. Each of the stories finds its heroine visiting a traveling exhibit called Sex Through the Ages, only to be plunged into the past.
