Summary: Once Upon a Rose -- Entirely Believable
Review: "Once Upon a Rose" is a time travel book about a country music singer from the 90's, who ends up lost in a maze that transports her to the 1500's. I found it very enjoyable. While most time travel romances don't particuarlly concentrate on making it realistic, Judith O'Brien does a wonderful job. I felt that all the characters reacted very believably, and the historical details were accurate, and perfectly intertwined with the romance. I found I didn't really enjoy the romance part as much, which was a bit less unbelievable and ah, spontaneous. And there certainly weren't any sizzling love scenes to make up for it. It was a touching love story, but not amazing. I would recommend this book to someone that appreciates a good time travel, and doesn't mind a less-steamy romance. It was such a good book, though.
