It all starts with call to her boss about a mysterious object found at an old castle. He goes to see what it is and asks her to follow him with paperwork. As she's getting on the train, she sees a man following her. She knows she's in danger. Then a friend from her past shows up, saying the duke sent him for her protection. She's a bit worried about her heart needing protection but what can she say? When the man tailing her gets off the train in mid-trip, she's hoping it's over. No, it's just beginning...
Berkley sent me a copy of this book to read for review (thank you). It is being published today.
This is a very interesting time travel tale. Truelove's present time was in 1906. When Lord Silverton goes missing, she wants to travel back in time to find him. She manages that but then she can't figure out how to get back. The man who follows her like a bad penny is from the future. And when the past and the future collide, it produces very interesting results.
One thing I especially loved about this book is that the relationships were all real love. There's no farce, no half-heartedness about it at all. That's what carries the story and helps right wrongs. This was a fascinating read and I really enjoyed it.
I'd tell you more but it might spoil the story. There's an old legend involved. And I'm not sure that they've seen the last of Haywood, her boss. But we'll just have to see what the next book brings.
