Review: Worth taking a chance on.
Rating: 4 out of 5

Entertaining read with likable characters and a satisfying ending.  This is not my usual type of book but I'm glad I took a chance on it.  This is a very sweet romance (no sex) and yet the writing conveys that they are drawn to each other in a way that is understandable.  How the actual time travel occurs is mostly glossed over but the how of it is not the center of the book, the romance is.  At first heroine Gillian seemed a little silly and acted (to my thinking) much younger than a 24 year old would in her circumstances.  She resists acting like she belongs in the time that she is transported to far beyond a logical point.  She came across as borderline bossy, lazy and mouthy -- AND YET -- I liked it.  Somehow the author made it work for me.  The writing isn't too wordy or preachy, the author doesn't feel the need to shove information down your throat or show off how much she knows about history.  It's just an easy, enjoyable read.
