Book Reviews of A Love Beyond Time (Time Passages)Book Review: A Fantastic Read! Summary: 5 StarsJudie Aitken has written one of the best time travels I've ever read! This book touched every emotion from laughter to tears and offered a romance that is second to none. She definitely knows the Native American culture. I read A Love Beyond Time in one sitting and I can't wait for her next book!
Book Review: A great cross-over romance Summary: 5 StarsAnthropologist Ryan Burke looks forward to working with Dr. Gaffney on the Little Big Horn Battleground project. However, Gaffney greets her with contempt simply because Ryan is a woman and he believes females are a negative disruption in fieldwork. The other professionals on the project provide a warm welcome, but one of them warns her that Gaffney is stealing and selling artifacts.Ryan speaks Lakota and knows much of the customs. When she meets the elderly Charley Crying Wolf, she greets him with proper respect. When her tent is washed away in a storm, Charley gives her a magically powerful tipi to use temporarily. At the same time, Charley's grandson, attorney Dillon Wolf, pushes to close down the Gaffney expedition. However, a freak accident leaves Dillon unconscious. Through the tipi, Ryan finds herself in the large Indian camp in 1876 Montana just before the battle with Custer. The tipi belongs to Wolf who is confused by several visions of horseless carriages and buildings that touch the clouds. In spite of the seemingly time era problem and the fact that she is a white, they fall in love. However, just who is the bewildered Wolf, who was seen to die during an earlier skirmish? A LOVE BEYOND TIME is an excellent blending of elements from several different types of romance classifications. The story line successfully uses time travel, Native American lore and magic, contemporary issues, and historical components blended into a powerful mix that proves Julie Aitken is a creative force with a wonderful future. The lead characters are an interesting pair and the support cast adds much depth regardless of the century. This multi-faceted winner will fascinate cross sub-genre readers. Harriet Klausner
