Having a guardian angel looking over you is nice but we the reader are never privy to what the angel, who helps the heroine go to the past, has in mind if it is the epilogue then it's a darn poor ending.The book does explain how some things I've wondered about in hygiene were handled & does give an accurate portrait of how dark & gloomy the houses were day or night. And how cooking heated the houses making them uncomfortable sleeping in or actually living in.Having sex right away does not constitute the start of a relationship & for a man of that time I was surprised he didn't think little of her! The characters I felt are never fully formed & no actual plot interests were allowed by the author. The man was sought after by a local women in the nearby town. She sounded a bit bitchy but what a cliche that in the end she's all happiness the couple got together. How unreal! The other unreal part of the book is the heroine disappearing then coming home with a baby & the town welcomes her with open arms GET REAL! She would NOT have been married in the church. The author needed to do more research into the time she was writing about. If you are easily entertained & don't want accuracy in what you read you'll like this book.
