Women's love is wavering. They can't stick to one person. Sometimes they can't get what they love. If at all they get what they love, they stop loving them and go for some other thing. The review is a clear picture of a typical woman.

This sounds like a very well-written romance. However, romance novels with naughty passionate scenes really aren't my type of book. I'm glad that you enjoyed reading this so much, and thank you for the review!

Great review debo9967, makes me what to start reading it now. I curious to find out if Susan will realize that her current life with her husband and children is much better than the one she time travels to, or if she would rather stay in the other time!

Before starting, I must state that the offical review was is comprehensive, an all around one, good job debo9967.

But I think this review is a rather exaggerated one, ok the story is catchy but not an astonishing one. Besides, the flow of the events occurs in a classic way. Romance was too vivid that prevents one to focus into the other aspects of the book.

I agree that the language of the book is kinda delightful.

In overall, I rate the book as 3.5/5

Time Travel romance always ignites passion in the person reading it to some extent..the naughty passionate scenes, the fear of heartbreak, the sweetest expressions of love all well woven in this book make it an epic to read. Congrats on being the BOTD. :)

I am not usually a romance reader although I have read some fantasy ones that I really enjoyed, but this one sounds really interesting. Thank you for the great review because it did the trick of getting me interested in a genre I tend to overlook. I added this to my must read list. Amanda

Interesting looking book and certainly one I might be interested in checking out. I'm not usually into romance but this sounds fascinating.

Thanks for taking the time to put out this detailed review! It sounds like an amazing book for people who are fans of romance and/or time travel. I'm not really one for romance, so I'll be giving this a miss, but I hope your review leads others to it!

Time travel, romance and a lesson to learn. All together in the same book and one of those I actually prefer to read. The meeting with the Haiti woman, Mike and post meeting is attracting me the most. All in all a very great review. Thank you for such a deep insight

Most of us would like a second chance to do something over, experience past/future times that fascinate us. This is what draws me to time travel stories. I love these books and jumped at the chance to load this one. Thanks to the author for making this one free! The review was very good, and also whet my appetite to read the book. Congrats to the author on having BOTD!

This sounds like a story that the author really put effort into, rather than just throwing together. Romance isn't typically my genre of choice, but based on the unusual elements you mentioned in your review and especially the character development, I was actually intrigued!

I like the idea of the change in Susan's perspective as she takes her modern, 62 year-old mind back to her younger body. Not only will she see James with new eyes as she gets to know him personally, but she will see society around her with an altered perspective as modern ideas clash with the then-culture.

Good job on the review! I usually don't read books dealing with time travel but this one has me intrigued, plus, who doesn't like a good romance. :)
