The time-travel aspect of this book was quite well done. Since most time-travel stories involve a character going into the past (where they at least have an idea of how things work), this one was a story where the heroine travelled into the future. Unlike some writers who attempt time-travel romance, she had a compelling explanation as to how the heroine had travelled through time (something that is often annoyingly vague in other time-travel books).

The author did a good job of showing Abby's fascination with our time. Many time-travel books have a character travel through time and then just accept it as if such an occurance is no big deal. That wasn't the case here, much to my enjoyment. It also made me appreciate how much easier we have things now, like hot running water and electricity, as well as grocery stores, indoor plumbing, cars, antibiotics....well, the list goes on.

It was an enjoyable read all around.

Time Travel Romance 1858/present day Arizona

from the back of the book:
Her wagon train stranded on the Spanish Trail, pioneer Abby Wynne searched the heavens for rain. Gifted with visionary powers, Abby sensed a man in another time gazing at the same night sky. But even she could not foresee that she would journey to the future and into the arms of her soul mate.

Widower Mike Danziger had escaped the L.A. lights for the Painted Desert, but nothing prepared him for a beauty as radiant as the doe-eyed woman he found. His intellect couldn't accept her incedible story, but her warm kiss eased the longing in his heart.

Caught between two eras bridged only by their love, Mike and Abby fought to stay together, even as the past beckoned Abby back to save those trapped on the trail. Was their passion a destiny written in the stars or only a fleeting glimpse of paradise?
