review 1: My friend Jen let me borrow this book. I don't recall reading any kind of time-travel, historical and romantic fiction before. I was pleasantly surprised by it and my interest in the story. I'm not always one to enjoy reading tales of sailors and events folding around the sea waters but I did like this one. The main character, Sara Stevenson, was amusing and fiery. Her loyalty was amazing and the hurt that she was shown by her parents was shocking and cruel. She's the kind of friend or sister I'd want to have close by. There were some parts of the book that dragged a bit and I was not entirely overjoyed at the ending but I liked the story overall and the twists, turns and surprises that the author had in store for the reader. As much of a skeptic as one may be, it ... moreis nice to think/believe that love can transcend and travel for miles and years at a time like this book shows.
review 2: Very disappointing. This was supposed to be a book of historical fiction with a time-travel element... one of my favorite genres. The story ended up being a rather boring one of forbidden love and forced separation. The time travel was a minor plot device -- it was completely random and made no sense whatsoever. I finished the book because I had nothing else to do, but I would have rather watched a good movie on TV.... less

This was an intriguing book. Lots of little twists and turns to this romance. I enjoyed the story.

A Harlequin Romance with big words and insipid characters. Too bad, the storyline had potential.

The worst "time travel" book I've ever read.
