review 1: This is a difficult one for me to review because I don't feel like i liked it, BUT I kinda want to finish the series. So I sort of liked it. This is the first part of a 6 part story. It also includes pictures. Anyway, it's a typical time-travel romance, a common troupe in romance. A modern woman who doesn't feel like she has a place in her own life, has a tragic past & somewhat mysterious parents, gets into an accident & finds herself transported to Victorian England. She meets the Duke of the land where she finds herself & thus the romance is set up. The characters are fairly cookie cutter for this type of story. I have a few issues with the story: the actual narrative is a bit disjointed. I realize that this was the set up & just the first part but it could rea... morelly have benefitted from some streamlining. Also, it turns out that I do not like pictures with my books unless they are in comic form. I feel like they really took me out of the story. I am unsure if I will finish the series
review 2: I got this as a freebie at Amazon and thought I'd give it a try. Well, it sucked me right in! It is a serial novel after all and you know there's going to be a cliffhanger....you just know it! And then.....and then....well, dear me, when I finished reading part 1, I was in a place without WiFi and couldn't get part 2 until I got home! Glad it didn't take long to get home. My rating for part 1 is a strong 3.5 stars! less
