More About the Author

Jane Goodger worked as a journalist for 12 years before deciding that writing about happy endings was much more fun than writing about real life. Jane wrote her first book when she was six; it was about a worm who didn't want to be a worm. Fascinating stuff (if you're a worm--or six years old). Now she happily spends her time writing, reading, hunting for sea glass near her home in New England, hanging out with her three kids, or anything else unrelated to housework. Her husband can attest to this fact.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great time travel romance, October 3, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Anything for Love (Paperback)
Two years ago, former supermodel Victoria Ashford had her face burned and permanently scarred by a freak accidental fire. Very depressed that her life seems over, especially after her picture shows up in a tabloid, Victoria is thinking that suicide might be the only answer to end her torment. Her best friend convinces Victoria to visit Dr. John Wing, a mystic who claims he can give someone a new life. Skeptical that she is visiting a quack, Victoria soon finds herself residing in the body of Sheila Casey, who is about to give birth in 1898 Boston.

After her child is born, the infant is adopted by Jack and Christina Wilkins, but the wife soon dies. For some weird reason, Victoria finds that she must see her baby. At the same time, Jack needs a nurse to care for his infant, who seems to never stop crying. He hires Victoria and soon the pair falls in love. However, she fears that she does not know what guarantee there is that she will stay in the nineteenth century. He needs to overcome his feelings of guilt that he never loved his deceased wife. With all this baggage, this couple does not appear to have a relationship that can survive into the new century.

ANYTHING FOR LOVE is a wonderful human drama that demonstrates that life is worth living and love is worth taking chances on in order to feel complete. The time travel story line is very interesting and the characters are a wonderful couple (though Jack seems to be an anachronism). Jane Goodger provides a very good time travel romance that fans of the sub-genre will enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good read, November 11, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Anything for Love (Paperback)
This is the fourth book I've read by Jane Goodger, but I didn't think it was her best. The love story wasn't as well written, but I felt that Jack and Victoria still had a good story.
