My Review:
It's been a long time since I read historical fiction, including time travel & romance, that's part fantasy & part actual. I usually don't read historical fiction novels, but I noticed the blurb of this one to be interesting, which made me choose it immediately. The conceptualization of the account is unique & powerful. Blending facts with fiction ain't a mean achievement! The writer has done an excellent study on the topic & it clearly shows.

Adventure, thriller, magic, medicine, romance, time-travel, what more can one ask for to get weak in the knees. The characters & pictures lay such a roller coaster journey that I couldn't help but be stuck to the novel till the end! Lying in my bedroom, enclosed by all the contemporary facilities, I questioned how it would feel to be in the 1300s.

There's part two of the novel coming up & I can't wait to read that one. I would recommend the book to all historical fiction, time-travel, romance stories fans. You people are in for a feast!


Blurb (From Goodreads):
The ultimate cure that could heal any disease? Crazy.

That's exactly what research scientist Marian Creighton has always believed about her father's quest, even if it does stem from a desire to save her sister Ellen from the genetic disease that stole their mother from them. But when her father falls into a coma after drinking a vial of holy water believed to contain traces of residue from the Tree of Life, Marian must question all of her assumptions. He's left behind tantalizing clues that suggest he's crossed back in time. Insane. Until Marian tests his theories and finds herself in the Middle Ages during a dangerous peasant uprising.

William Durham, a valiant knight comes to Marian's rescue and offers her protection . . . as his wife. The longer Marian stays in the past, the more she cares about William. Can she ever find her father and make it back to the present to heal her sister? And when the time comes to leave, will she want to?

Bestselling author Jody Hedlund is your guide down the twisting waters of time to a volatile era of superstition, revolts, and chivalry in this suspenseful story.

Book: Breathtaking Author: Courtney Turcotte Bond Publisher: All The Everythings Publishing My Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars "If you donate your organs, you will certainly enhance someone's life, and most likely, you will save someone's life." Review: Breathtaking, Courtney's debut novel is a marvelous piece that is motivated by real-life youngsters (the real heroes), and I am so glad that I got to read this one. Adam, Cara, and Reid, you are the cutest people, and you'll have grown to be my most beloved personalities. I covet we were buddies in actual as well. Breathtaking is regarding the ties of friendship and affection. There is an elegant fabrication of sentiments of joy, melancholy, heartbreaks, neglect, expectations, and recognition. This book, with its story, unquestionably teaches us a lot about life, nothing is constant. If there's a shadow of tribulation, there's also peace, and all take their course to emerge. This book not just m

Book: Thunder On The Moor, #1 Author: Andrea Matthews Genre: Historical Fiction, Romance, Time Travel Tour: Love Book Tours Format: Mobi My Rating: 4.2 / 5 ⭐ Blurb: Maggie Armstrong grew up enchanted by her father’s tales of blood feuds and border raids. In fact, she could have easily fallen for the man portrayed in one particular image in his portrait collection. Yet when her father reveals he was himself an infamous Border reiver, she finds it a bit far-fetched—to say the least—especially when he announces his plans to return to his sixteenth century Scottish home with her in tow. Suspecting it’s just his way of getting her to accompany him on yet another archaeological dig, Maggie agrees to the expedition, only to find herself transported four hundred and fifty years into the past. Though a bit disoriented at first, she discovers her father’s world to be every bit as exciting as his stories, particularly when she’s introduced to Ian Rutherford, the charming son of a neighborin

Author: Blake Pierce Rating: 4 / 5 Stars Review: Amidst the cornfields, in the nowhere lands of Nebraska, there is a woman mercilessly assassinated and strung up on a pole, almost naked, with bruises on her body. This case is investigated by Detective Mackenzie White, a 25-year-old woman, who is not only talented, but swift, and with extraordinary zeal and smartness. She is looked down upon and not taken seriously by her co-workers as well as her immediate bosses. She is struggling to keep herself together in her male chauvinist work world, the brutal murders happening around her at an entirely startling rate. The inclusion of an FBI Agent for the manhunt helps her make progress in the case which she, if alone, would have found it very difficult, thanks to the little assistance from her colleagues. In the quest of finding the killer, Mackenzie realizes that the case is opening up the dark parts of her own personal life that she had shoved deep in her heart; failed bonds with he
