This story was actually a nice surprise!  I really didn’t think I would like the book and it sat in my to be read pile for a bit after I purchased it.  Since it seems Ms. Sarah Hoss only has two books available from amazon the story, plot twists and engaging characters are really very good.I just loved the beautiful modern 22nd century time lost heroine Marlana who it seems struggles at first in the 18th century but learns how to adapt.  The strong handsome highlander hero Alexander is also Marlana perfect match!  The story moves along quite nicely.  Everyday Alexander is wondering what to do about Marlana but slowly falling in love with her and her with him which I liked the most about the story.  Plus,both characters develop slowly but it isn’t really hard to imagine either one of them.  James and Hamish two of the minor characters in the book were really fascinating and I do hope she writes their story next.There were a few things however that did kind of confuse me.  Alexander’s clan colors kept changing going from black/white to red/green that I didn’t think the clan colors can actually do that and would actually change as the book progressed.  I didn’t really understand how Marlana time traveled it seems her wish combined with her dream of Alexander and the pearl she wore around her neck would all play a part in bring her to Alexander’s time.  The pearl’s legend did kind of allude to the fact but I think all of this needed to be explained a little bit better.  I was also surprised that Marlana was actually a virgin because she wanted to put the moves on her ex-boyfriend and maybe they had just passionately kissed but that’s as far as it went with them.  Despite all of this mentioned above I rated the book four stars.  I loved reading the story can recommend it and will read another book from Ms Hoss.
