Review: A Refreshing Take on a Time Travel Story
Rating: 4 out of 5

Though some of the scenes seemed a bit far-fetched at times, the book provided a refreshing take on the role of women in medieval times, specifically that of Gillian Corbett, a time traveler in the story. There was such an intriguing mix of humor, romance, action, camaraderie, and a sense of adventure that meshed well together which made the book hard to put down. The author wrote with such skill and poignancy that made the reader really feel for the characters and also emphasize with each and every emotional episode experienced by Gillian and Kellen. There is a ton of character and plot development in the book, so be prepared for a nice emotional ride in this medieval love story. In the end, what really won me over was the positive ending, involving a self-sacrifice of sorts for the heroine (not hard to do if you're doing it for a sexy hunk) which ultimately gave Kellen a sense of redemption and healing that he desperately needed (no thanks to his cheating, self-centered 1st wife). Definitely, would highly recommend. I look forward to reading more books in this series in the near future.
