  This is a must. But be careful, there are 6 other books (900 pages each) following this one. What a saga! For romance and history lovers only.

  I really liked this author's writing style and I found the characters enjoyable, even though not always quite believable. However, the story was a little too smutty to be anything but fluff, but not enough fun to be a guilty pleasure. I found myself rushing through it at the end just so I could be done with it. I will try other things by this author because I think there is a lot of potential.

  ETA - I updated this to 3 stars because it's really much better than the other books I ranked as 2 stars, and because I kept thinking back to the characters the day after I finished it and wondering what else might happen to them, so it couldn't have been too dull :)

She meets a cool and sexy Scotish rebel, Jamie... and the ancestor of her husband who turns out to be a real bastard. Although Claire is English, ... (continue)

  This is sooo... good. Ok, it's for women, don't bother if you are a man. Claire is a WW2 British nurse who gets transported back in time about 200 years. She meets a cool and sexy Scotish rebel, Jamie... and the ancestor of her husband who turns out to be a real bastard. Although Claire is English, she starts to sympathize with the Scotch freedom fighters. Unfortunately she knows how things will pan out, since she studied it in school. She meets another time traveller. You'd hardly believe this book was written by an American - she is very up to date on the UK

  Abridged audio book

  This was one of my favorite books and I decided to re-read it by audio book. As I started to listen, I realized that parts were just left out altogether, a lot of parts, and it didn't have the same feel as the original. Either find the unabridged edition of this audio book (well worth it for the 2 ... (continue)

Either find the unabridged edition of this audio book (well worth it for the 2/3 of the story that is left out) or read the book. (I know it is 900 pages long but it is great)
