You can jump from today's Bath to the one from 1812. This is a very likeable time travel story. That's what it is most interesting in this book, as Jane, little by little knows the way of living from the past and the most important, knows better our hero, Ramsay. Bath is the perfect scenery. Then, friends, do not lose the adventures of Jane and Ramsay. The way she goes to past and returns was ingeniously created by the writer Leanne Shawler. I only give 4 stars as I would have liked to read more of this nice couple in the final chapter of this nice story.
I enjoyed this book very much. I love the time travel genre and I wish there were more books written about traveling through time. So my two favorite things make up this book,Romance and Time Travel, that makes a very good book to me.
They are aware of someone else in the master bedroom & both suppose they're seeing ghosts. Touched By Time is a different take on the Time Travel Romance genre. I realize this genre can be disappointing because of the details of how hard it would be to change the time we live in & what we'd live without.This book starts with 2 people who live in the same house (one the original owner, the other a visitor) in Bath. How to they find each other, who is the one to "travel". are questions that are answered creatively and in a way that says "Well, it COULD happen." A fresh view with 1 of the characters realizing what they'll be giving up on changing time & learning the expected behavior of the society they choose to stay in.
She ends up staying at a quaint Bed and Breakfast at Chadwick Manor, a place formerly owned by a gentleman who disappeared tragically during Regency period England. Every dawn, she returns to her world. Ramsey and Jane do not fall "head over heels in love" immediately. It is rather shorter than my normal books, but I was intriqued by the story. Jane, on the other hand, discovers more about Ramsey and starts to long to help him find his way.One night, during Ramsey's ball for his fiance, Jane is brought into Regency England by a touch from Ramsey. However, he starts noticing two things: (1) his future wife is flirting quite freely with his best friend and (2) there is a ghost of a woman in his bedchamber.
Jane and Ramsey first meet as ghosts to one another. They both try to investigate who each other is, however Ramsey has no success, as Jane's time does not exist. Jane Leighton is a modern day woman, escaping a stalking ex-boyfriend by vacationing in Bath. Will Ramsey marry his fiance. Jane is only in Ramsey's time at night. TOUCHED BY TIME is a good, solid afternoon read. Is there a way for Jane to remain in Ramsey's time, if they do fall fully in love.
At the same time, Jane tries to assist Ramsey in dealing with his fiance. Ramsey Chadwick is a Regency gentleman, two-weeks away from his marriage to the most beautiful woman in Bath. They gradually learned to like and respect each other. Once there, Jane believes that she is to help Ramsey discovered who caused him to disappear and to help prevent it from happening again. There is a twist, though. Will they be able to save Ramsey. Read to find out.
