This is a sweet time travel romance. It did an excellent job of holding my attention and keeping me entertained. I enjoyed it very much.

I am an impulse book buyer! I saw JL Merrow's name and auto-bought it! Some writers just do that to me. I don't expect to love everything but I trust those few writers not to insult me. Imagine my surprise, I don't like time-travel and I avoid sad stories but as expected Merrow hooked me and wouldn'...

Question: you step out of your house one day to go to work and..WHAM..suddenly find yourself in 19th century Victorian London. Astonished, you suck the grime, dirt and decay into your lungs and then...you lock eyes with a pretty boy who casually leans against a lamppost. He's a prostitute and it sho...

He wanders outside for a smoke and steps into 1886. His second stumble is in insta-love with the nearest rent boy. There was quite a l...

I hate writing about novellas, they are so short!!!Ok Ted is all sad, time-travels, meets a whore and pants are down. Ahem, little fast there Ted. But luckily they quickly fall in love too, but oh no, can Ted continue to time-travel?!?! Oh that sound a bit like dissing, but except for the quickly dr...

I enjoyed this time travel audiobook. Ted was, perhaps, a little impulsive and slow on the uptake, but I blamed it on his closed head injury. Jem is charming and lovable. I really appreciated that he was able to believe Ted about being from the future (or at least not care). I was very glad they did...

I love JL Merrow's books, and I thought this one was well written and well edited, it was on the shorter side but I could feel the chemistry between the guys. But this is one of the occassions where I thought that shorter form did not suit the story. I do like well written shorts and shorter novella...

This is a terrific one-sitting read. I haven't read many time travel stories as I'm normally a strictly contemporary kind of gal. I really enjoyed this one. The writing was smooth, the historical detail felt accurate, both characters seemed to react as you would expect when flung into a different ...
