Traveler

If you enjoy time travel stories, this one is pretty good. Without giving up the plot, love can transend time. This is actually a very early Elaine Fox novel and is not necessarily a contemporary story. This novel shows another side of Elaine's talent and is definitely worth the read. I enjoyed the story - the spunky heroine and a happy ending is always a good thing.

Susan Fox does a masterful job of character development in describing the actions as well as the emotions each is experiencing at the time. Written in first person, the book felt as if a good friend was relating her life to me, resulting in my feeling a personal intimacy with the story line. The author did all this with humor, emotions that were honest and believable, and a charming contrast between the culture mores of today and the Civil War Era. I'm definitely saving this book to reread on another rainy weekend! Absolutely DELIGHTFUL!

I just finished reading "Traveler" a few hours ago and couldn't wait to put my two cents in. I love history, I love romance, I love time travel books. This was a geat combination, I didn't want the book to end but I could hardly wait to find out how everything worked out, and the pieces of the puzzle fit together. This is the first book I've read by this Author, it definetly won't be the last. I was actually holding my breath when Meg found Shelby reading her diary!!!

This book goes VERY fast. I read it in one sitting and could not put it down. I loved the idea of Shelby's boyfiend, Rory, and Carter's wife, Meg (that element alone made some heavy tension). The romance between these two sizzles. I don't usually like books written in the first person, but this one is exceptional and definitely a "keeper."

Elaine Fox is a personal friend and I still can't believe the "sweet young thing" has enough life experience to be an acclaimed published writer. She does and she is! I read TRAVELER without putting it down, handed to my husband who would never even open such literature, left to run errands and he was just finishing it when I returned. Since then, I have purchased 5 copies to share with friends. Elaine is a female Stephen King who grabs you vicariously with many surprises. TRAVELER is the perfect movie script....when? Her other novels are now in my shopping basket
