Publisher's summary

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?

I love Time Travel books and this one was very different than most. Very original. I enjoyed the entire book. She did a great job. The narration was great as well.

Beginning is a little slow but worth the wait

Was a bit slow to set up the storyline but once it gets going it is difficult to put down. Very much overall enjoyed it.

Not what I was expecting

This was definitely not what I was expecting, but in the end, I did really enjoy it. It was written really well, the characters had depth and feeling, and premise is fascinating. It is a very tame romance, definitely no steamy scenes. I can’t fault the author or narrator so, I am giving it five stars. It is not something I will read again and I’m not gonna continue the series. This book is very religious, even when it comes to science. If you are not a religious person, this may not be a book for you.

Engaging, Interesting, Fantastic

I was never bored . Great character development, I enjoyed learning about the peasant uprising as a part of the characters’ story. I did think a lot about how a 21st century woman would stand out in the 14th century. How the author explained time travel was intriguing and pretty reasonable sounding ( from someone who does not study quantum physics for a living lol 🤣🤣 !!!)
