Always by Jude Deveraux

Always by Jude Deveraux

The third book (follows Forever… and Forever and Always) in a series-within-a-series revolving around the supernaturally gifted Darci Montgomery, Always initially sets a fast pace with its rather suspenseful and multilayered plotline, only to repeatedly stall and, ultimately, become rather confusing. Jack Hallbrooke grew up with everything that money could buy, but without the parental…

Wet and Wild by Sandra Hill

Wet and Wild by Sandra Hill

Well, it’s obvious that I’ve been missing out on some good fun by not managing to get around to reading Sandra Hill’s Viking/Time Travel series until now. Simultaneously silly, goofy, sexy, and smart, Wet and Wild is one of the funniest and most charming books I’ve read this year. Ragnor Magnusson has had enough with…

Tempting the Highlander

As the title indicates, Tempting the Highlander is the latest installment in Janet Chapman’s series about a group of time-traveling Scotsmen and their offspring. This is the first book in the series that I’ve tried, and while it is a warm, sweet story, I suspect it will work better for readers who’ve been following these…

Time’s Captive

Romance novels with a Native American theme can be iffy. Many such historicals revolve around a Native American savage taking a beautiful white woman and having his way with her. Justifiably, these books come under some harsh criticism. Fortunately, Kate Lyon’s debut offers an excellent portrayal of Native American life and the problems that arise…

Jane’s Warlord

I’ll admit I chose Ms. Knight’s Berkley debut because of the title. How could I not? A title character named Jane who has her very own warlord? Shallow reasons aside, I’m glad I gave Jane’s Warlord a shot. Though it’s a bit of a mixed bag, I do look forward to reading this author’s next…

Wild Highland Rose

My first book by Dee Davis was, regretfully, not a successful experiment. Part time travel, part Scots medieval, part mystery – this novel seems like an ambitious attempt by the author to do something a little different from the norm. Unfortunately, throwing away the character clichés would have been a less ambitious and probably more…

The Wishing Chalice

Time travel books can be very difficult to read and write. For one, you have to decide how the person travels back in time, how they are going to deal with their predicament, and if they are going to go back to their own time in the end. These types of books can be very…

Flashback by Terri Herrington

Terri Harrington’s Flashback may not be the best-written time travel romance I’ve ever read or the deepest, but it is my favorite. It’s a simple story, one which takes a different approach to the material than many others. It’s not concerned with the mechanics and complications of time travel. It doesn’t spend time showing how…
