*Ms. Davies gave me a copy of this book for free, in exchange for an honest review*I devoured this book, like a fat kid would chocolate cake!  I read it in one day.  I couldn’t put it down.  I was intrigued.  I needed to know how this was happening.Grace is a pilot, a daughter, a friend, a lover, and a cancer patient.  She has come home to her parents farm to die.  She can no longer be a pilot, due to safety concerns.  On a hike Pen Y Fan, which I did look up, she has a spell.  She is shot back in time, to dark/savage times where men are brutal and powerful.  It is there that she meets Roman for the first time.  Then just like that she is back to present day, wondering what the hell happened to herself.Through the days that follow, she has more spells and meets up with Roman again.  Learning more about him.  That she has seen him in several different time periods and he is always the same.  How can that be?  Why isn’t he aging?  It doesn’t matter Grace and Roman have a connection.  A bond.  What is like seconds in her life, is days, weeks with Roman.  Will her future self die?  Will her past self die?  Will she eventually be with Roman?This book sweeps you up in the first chapter.  You feel terrible for Grace.  Her boyfriend left her, her friends don’t know about the cancer.  They just know she came home.  I found it odd, that the friends don’t question her more about being home.  Her mom smothers her with love and protection, but that’s what mom’s do.  I love Grace.  I love that she has accepted her life and knows that life will go on without her.  She is a realist.  Roman makes me nervous.  I wanted more from him, I wanted him to be what I’m use too – I don’t want to ruin it for you.  He was dangerous, he was rough, but with Grace he was kind, gentle and loved her – when she was there.I am anxious to read book 2 and 3, I need to know what happens to Grace and Roman.  Book 1 left you with a cliff hanger that will make your jaw drop and your heart leap into your throat.
