Description

A romantic, time-travel adventure set in Jane Austen's England.

I couldn't stop imagining: what would it be like if I could time-travel to Jane Austen's world? What would I do? How would I live? Who would I meet? This thought developed into a book that brings the reader into my fantasy. I think it's a pretty fun, interesting, sexy one!

Dr. Cassandra Reilly is a classic Jane Austen heroine. Georgina Young-Ellis is more than a gifted storyteller, she casts a spell that takes the reader back to 1820 Regency England. The sights, the sounds, the textures, and the smells embrace you. I had to shake myself to remember what century this is as I clicked the last magical page of The Time Baroness. 

The writing is exquisite. The story of a mother struggling to rescue her son in another century, in a culture where women were seen and not heard, is a very new spin on what we all hope is possible... Time Travel. Science fiction, mystery, a mother's love, and an almost eerie sense of Déjà vu. A spellbinding story from an amazing author. Highly Recommended.

Reminds me of Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series only with Jane Austen's world, April 10, 2011
This review is from: The Time Baroness (Kindle Edition)
If you like Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series you will love this book. The author has created a fascinating world of time travel, with the future the past all intertwined. The historical setting and references really takes you to another time. I also enjoyed the sci- fi twist (more than I expected) and how it was wound up with the historical part. Great characters, and an engrossing plot full of twists and turns that takes you on a fascinating journey. A really enjoyable read. Perfect for summer and the beach.

5.0 out of 5 stars Time Baroness took me away..., April 18, 2011 this review is from: The Time Baroness (Kindle Edition)
I'm not a big fan of science-fiction or any fiction for that matter. But after just a few pages, I was hooked on "The Time Baroness". The way the author wove the super modern world of time travel with Jane Austen's world was very clever and had my attention throughout....so much so, that I actually missed my subway stop coming home from work one night because I was so engrossed with the story. Did I mention the steamy parts??? Well, let's just say that even in Victorian times, there were sexy booty calls! Read "The Time Baroness" for a true escape from life with aspects of real life that will make you wonder...what if?
