Book Blurb
What was a woman to do?
When an experiment gone wrong landed Dr. Jane Florian in the Middle Ages, she vowed to make the best of things. And if that meant posing as Lady Jehane from the Holy Land, cleaning the castle from tower to dungeon, ousting the hounds from the banquet hall, and giving the mistress of the hall a makeover, then she would... Unfortunately, she hadn't counted on her reaction to her new neighbor - the magnetic Sir Daffy.
The Middle Ages might lack modern conveniences, but Jane had no complaints about the men. Sir Daffy's arrogant masculine sensuality fired her senses as no man from her own time had ever done....And yet, Jane's secrets weren't the only ones, for Sir Daffy was a man of mystery himself...

Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala
Jane Florian is a medieval history specialist who finds herself in the Middle Ages as a result of a time travel experiment. She is sent back against her will with little control of anything. While she is stuck there, she becomes the chatelaine of a castle. Part of her focus becomes making the local lord and lady a couple that succeeds in every way. However she develops and then fights an attraction to Sir Daffyd. Sir Daffyd is a local knight that Jane can’t afford to get involved with. Of course it is a losing battle.
Jane’s adventures were fun to read even as she constantly balanced her impulse to make life better. She is fearful of drastically changing history. The author included an interesting idea with the romance between Jane and Sir Daffyd. However the story came across more as a historical romance than a time travel storyline. I wish the author would have given a bit more detail in changes and consequences of Jane’s travel back in time. I would have also liked to see more information about when she returns home. So I was a bit disappointed with the ending. I would give it a 3 out of 5.
