Somewhere in Time

Somewhere In Time was a fast paced, sexy, and adventurous time travel romance. We see sparks fly when a "alpha male" Roman Centurion meets a modern day "alpha female" air force pilot. A former pilot herself, Lovelace always knows how to put the right amount of guts as well as sensitivity into her female military heroines. They are strong without giving up their femininity. Funnily, I've just finished watching the DVD series Rome - The Complete First Two Seasons, so unlike the other reviewers, I felt that the author got the heroes male dominance quite right for the time period. Ancient Rome was a brutal place, and the people had to be brutal to survive. Lucius is portrayed as a hard man, but an honorable man nonetheless. The bedroom scenes are VERY descriptive and explicit, especially for a series romance-but the characters are portrayed as being VERY intimately attracted so the scenes are appropriate with the story. If not for the somewhat rushed and implausible ending, Somewhere In Time would be a five star book. In any event, I'd still recommend it to Time Travel Romance fans looking for a new setting. 3.5 stars!

Another delicious time travelling bodice ripper as Captain Aurora Durant of the US Air force is swept back in time, into the arms of a hunky Roman Centurion Lucius Antonius.Sparks fly as Aurora and Lucius clash, mainly over the status of women in Roman society and Lucius's inability in the beginning to accept that this divine young woman is actually from a future in which women are as much warriors as men.But Aurora finds herself falling in love with Lucius despite her misgivings and he with her and this sexy yet charming story contains daring rescues, love among the dunes and a sparkling if predicable time travel plot.This book has all the ingredients you want for a great holiday read, handsome hunk with rippling muscles, delicious but modern sexy young woman defying the boundaries of time to be with each other. Be prepared for a steamy, quality read.SCRUMPTIOUS!

Captain Aurora Durant was flying over Iraq when her and her co-pilot Lt. Charlie Everett flew right in the middle of a storm like nothing either of them had seen before. When lightning strikes into the cockpit and Charlie is knocked unconcious, it is up to Aurora to bring the plane down safely, which she is miraculously able to do. What she doesn't know is where she is, only that she has a magnificet warrior standing over her talking to her in a language that hadn't been used in over one thousand years. Soon, Aurora learns that she has extrodinarily crossed time to almost two thousand years before she was born. When she realizes that she may never be able to go back, Aurora tries to find her niche in 160 A.D. Aurora never expected to fall in love with the warrior that rescued her whom she soon learns is Lucius Antonius, senior ceturion of the Roman Empire, dubbed Luke by Aurora. Lucius had never met a more proud woman that Aurora of the gods. At first believing that Aurora was sent by his enemies to bring down Rome, Lucius is cautious. As time goes on, Lucius believes the unbelievable story of crossing through time. For surely no woman of Rome would ever challenge him as much as the firey haired goddess that he desires. Together, Lucius and Aurora try to compromise his demand for constant obidience and her demand for respect, regardless of who he is. Somewhere in Time is a sweet story between these two people who love each other enough to overcome the obstacles that they run into. The only thing that I didn't like was the ending. I believe that Luke wouldn't have surivied in the twentieth century because he is used to constant obidience from everyone he commands. He would not know how to survive in this world where he has to take orders from a woman. Other than that, it is great and I recommend that you pick it up!

This was one of those books that you see at the grocers with the magazines...and thank god i picked it up to give it a try...well worth it!...very romantic with just enough 'extra' to make things interesting without becoming a smut. ^.^ Highly recommend!

This is a great book from Merline Lovelace, I almost wish I could go back in time myself. This book is the story about U.S. Air Force Captain Aurora Durant who gets swept back 2,000 years into the past during a Saudi sand storm and meets up with Senior Centurian Lucias Antonius. Heads butt and sparks fly, along with a few choice twenty-first century phrases and a few Latin phrases as well! Needless to say if my imagination is anything to go by after the decription that Merline Lovelace gives, I hope this guy drops into my backyard sometime soon. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end, I couldn't put it down. Keep them coming Merline!!!
