It doesn't look like any other historical romances I've seen so automatic brownie points there :) The time-travel aspect of the book really appeals to me and the characters also sound amazing but I definitely like steamy romance in historical romances.

Do they have to be read in order?<br /><br />Since you love Scottish romances, have you read A Year and a Day by Virginia Henley? It's my favorite :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02217995773961682662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-7643915911593500792015-08-28T23:57:18.778-04:002015-08-28T23:57:18.778-04:00That cover really is amazing!
