Rating:  Summary: This is a great new concept in time travel! Review: Having both "stars" of the novel travel through time together is refreshing! A great story that is very realistic as far as customs, language and behavioral qualities of the time traveled to; and the frustration, worries and determination of the couple trapped in another era. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!!
Rating:  Summary: Great Story! Very Original and Highly Enjoyable!! Review: I *loved* this book!! The premise is a definite change of pace from the typical time travel in that the hero and heroine are both sent back in time and they have to earn their way home. There are lots of surprises (I won't spoil them) once Maggie and Alex arrive in Dunedin and the pace never flags. Ms. Brisbin paints an accurate portrait of the social attitudes and mores of the times, while still managing to use a gentle hand and keeping a clear focus on the romance. I can't say enough about this book! What a terrific debut!!
Rating:  Summary: A great first book! Review: I read Terri Brisbins book and loved it. If you love Time Travels, this is a must read.
Rating:  Summary: Great Story! Very Original and Highly Enjoyable!! Review: I was interested in the the time travel part but it was so much better than i anticipated. Mainly because the characters were from the present and so you know the ending will be a good one. It was very well written, I fell in love with the characters and was in suspence and just enough fantasy mixed with reality to make it quite good reading. I look forward to her next book.

Rating:  Summary: Good read-intriguing time travel Review: In New Jersey, school teacher Maggie Hobbs, who just split from her boyfriend, is looking forward to spending her summer vacation on a tour of Scotland. At the same time also in the Garden State, Alex MacKendimen, whose girlfriend just left him, is planning to accompany his beloved Aunt Jean to Scotland in order to attend the clan gathering in Dunnedin. This is the first trip to Scotland for both Americans.Near Dunnedin, Maggie's tour bus breaks down. She attends the clan gathering where she meets the mysterious Mairi and ultimately Alex. The fellow Americans are attracted to each other, but admit there is no time to get acquainted until after they return to the states. Mairi insists they have all the time in the world and pushes them through a magical arch that tranport the pair back several hundred years to a Medieval Dunnedin. Now the twentieth century travelers need to depend on one another to survive and find a way home. During this trek, they fell in love. Readers beware of A LOVE THROUGH TIME because one must prepare for a paradigm switch. Debut author Terri Brisbin successfully sends both lead protagonists back through time's portal, thereby, geometrically increasing the fun of a crisp story line. Maggie and Alex are a wonderful pair as each seeks something better out of life, while the support cast adds authenticity to both centuries. If this novel is any indication, Ms. Brisbin has a long future ahead of her, hopefully with more tales involving Mairi the marvelous matchmaker. Harriet Klausner
Rating:  Summary: A totally different aspect of time-travel, a very good read Review: Maggie and Alex are from the present day and are sent back in time together. It is not like any other time-travel books I have read. The secondary characters in the story are well developed and believable. I felt so sorry for the treatment Maggie recieved frrom Anice (Alex's betrothed). I wished she would give her a good slapping instead of taking all the snide remarks from Anice and her maids. She was just a spoilt little brat who thought she was better than everyone around her especially Maggie. Anice did change at the end of the book when she realised that the Alex she thought was betrothed to wasn't her Alex, but an imposter. I thought the real Alex who prefered to be called Sandy was a perfect match for Anice. He was just as bad as she had been to Maggie. This book is a great read and I can't wait to read the sequel to this book. I highly recommend it to any time-travel fans out there. Keep up the good work Terri.
