review 1: So, in the Legend of the Bloodstone, we meet Maggie McMillan. Maggie just lost her grandfather (who is also the man who raised her) and she is completely taken unawares when she accidentally finds a Bloodstone (and also triggers it). When she wakes up, she finds that she is in the early colonies……..oh, and did I mention that she is found by an Indian? Yeah, an Indian who is supposed to kill her apparently……but that poses a problem. Because from the first time he sees Maggie, Winn decides that she belongs to him. Now getting that point across to Maggie might take some work……or a miracle. Maggie wants only to go home, while Winn is equally determined to keep her with him. There are a lot of other really interesting side plots but I don’t want to say too much or... more it will spoil the story. This story was really good. I enjoyed it immensely and I am looking forward to reading the second book in the series. I did think that once Winn and Maggie hooked up, there were way too many cases of them losing control in really weird circumstances. I mean realistically, you aren’t going to be thinking of sex when you are going through some of the things they go through. That seemed a little overboard to me. But other than that factor, I enjoyed the story. There were a few grammatical errors but not so many to be glaringly obvious. Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoyed time-travel romance or early colonial romance.
review 2: I like to skim over what others are saying before I leave my comments. You know you have something special when the reviews are running so hot and cold. First let me say that if 446 pages is the accurate page count then this was a fast paced read. I was captivated by this story. I like these sorts of time travel romances I'm not sure if I have read any set in this place before. I don't know much of the history but I would think that the language barrier even in English would be a bit more challenging. Modern American English is very different than the colonists would have used. Okay, was not in use in the seventeenth century. This is the thing that bugged me most and I can't stand the grammar police, so no more on that. I just want good story and I did get that. The whole story has a few turns and more than one danger and a handful of enemies that really keep things moving. All the while, two people fall in love and are pulled in many directions by duty, deception, loss, or fear. less
