Highly regarded Madeline Baker provides readers with an exciting time travel romance. When the story line settles on either end of the chronological (historical and contemporary) eras, the tale is top rate as the lead characters capture the audience's attention. The time travel subplots occur faster than the All America Futurity quarter horse race at Ruidoso Downs so that these critical transition scenes feel abrupt and incomplete. Still the marvelous Madeline Baker bakes a wonderful novel that will provide pleasure to fans of historical, contemporary, and especially time travel romances.
