Helpful Score: 4
This book is a sleeper. The cover does not do the book justice. Ms. Fox has put quite a bit of history and thought into the twists of having two people from different centuries come together, and into the plotting of the climax. I believe it deserves a read by anyone who enjoys either straight romance novels, or historical romance.
With a thriving business and a stalled personal life, Shelby Manning never figured her life was any worse - or better - than the norm. Then a late-night stroll through a Civil War battlefield park led her to a most intriguing stranger. Bloody, confused, and dressed in Union blue, he insisted he had just come from the Battle of Fredericksburg - more than one hundred years in the past.
Maybe Shelby should have dismissed Carter Lindsey as crazy - just another history reenactor taking his game a little too seriously. But there was something compelling in his eyes, something special in his tender touch. And before she knew it, Shelby found herself swept into a passion like none she'd ever known and willing to defy time itself to keep Carter at her side.
