 been there, done that...... August 21, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
this debut book started well in the prologue, in telling an interesting background of the Legend of the Fairie Glen. My high hopes for a great story were quickly dashed by the sadly cliched, one dimensional hero and heroine. While the hero wasn't so bad, as usual, the author gave all her creative cake to the male lead and left the heroine the crumbs.
Cate was your typical weak, low self esteem "modern" heroine who must continually be rescued by her Scottish Highlander. Unfortunately, this seems typical for most of the Scottish Time Travel Romances I've tried. Authors-please quit teaming such strong male leads with "too stupid to live" heroines!
From the family/lover treachery storyline to even the "instantly loyal" wolfhound, the book rang of an amalgamation of storylines done to death and then some. I'm being generous with a 2.5 stars as this is a debut novel, but I won't be bothering to read the other books in this series.
 Fun read! Very Entertaining! August 14, 2008

This books was very entertaining. It is a fun read full of handsome men, magic, adventure and romance. I really enjoy historical fiction but tend to shy away from time travel books. This book, even though it had the time travel component, was very well written and completely captured my interest. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romance, historical romance and a little bit of magic.
 Ho Hum July 28, 2008

I found this one to be altogether ho-hum. Obviously the author put much thought into building the backstory. I did enjoy the fairytale told at the beginning and how it effects the rest of the tale. However, the author should have invested just as much time in the characters. I liked Cate and Conner well enough, but I felt like I was only getting surface emotions from them.
Between the fairies and magic, the Scottish setting, someone trying to kill the heroine, AND throw in the fact it's a time travel historical romance, there's alot going on. Given all that, you'd think I could recall enough to give you a thorough synopsis- but that's way more effort than the novel deserves as far as I'm concerned.
 New author GREAT Book July 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I basiclly picked this up because it was a time travel book not knowing the author. Most time I am disappointed but NOT this time! I loved it so much that I ordered her other 2 books and I'm reading the 2nd. one in the series now (which is turning out just as good) and I'm taking the book 3 in series on vacation with me! You SHOULD read this book you'll like it.
 It's a book for a little girl July 14, 2008

I should've downloaded a sample instead of paid for an order. Now I don't know how I can return this kindle edition book though I really cannot finish it.
The story is full of cliches (the part I read), the words are plain and the plot is very boring. A pretty girl from the modern world met a handsome prince, and they were in love in no time, and probably would be happily ever after. My 9 year old daughter might like it, or might not since she has already out grown the princess stories. It's just a waste of my money and time.
