"Engaging time travel romance"
Hollywood, California's Robyn Stafford is hiking near
Wales to recover from the shock of learning that her lover
is married when she runs into a muddied knight. The full
armored individual claims to be the Earl of March, Edward
Plantagenet. Robyn somehow has traveled back in time to
1459 where England is embroiled in the War of the Roses
civil war. At first sight Edward believes Robyn is an effeminate
male due to her twenty-first century chic short hair and
her sweatpants. He is a bit stunned when she uses a cell
phone and shares the sweet tasting granola bar with him.
Before they separate, he steals a kiss from Robyn whom he
now knows is quite a woman. In her own time, Robyn learns
that Edward is under a spell that one day will bring them
back together. Fans of time travel romance will enjoy this whimsical
fantasy. The characters are fun to observe especially the
lead duo's feelings of inadequacy and non-synchronization
when living in the century of their beloved. That along
with a resplendent look at fifteenth century England makes
the story line entertaining as the reader believes in
displacement spells. R Garcia Y Robertson paints an
enticing story that sub-genre fans will find irresistible
and want more novels from this talented writer. Harriet Klausner
