Kathleen Findlay is married to a cad, her mother is driving her crazy and her life is falling apart. Then her uncle dies, leaving her the family’s Revolutionary-era home and, she believes, an escape from her chaotic marriage.

As her life spins wildly out of control, Kathleen finds her heart and in the process, her own place in time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review of Out of Time by Deborah Truscott, July 24, 2011

I recommend making time for Out of Time. This story focuses on the physical and emotional journey of two lost souls, but it's so much more than that. The author cleverly incorporates a fascinating history lesson on the revolutionary-era (with an incredible feel for period detail) and an examination of 21st century culture, amidst an intriguing love story. It kept my interest and attention to the very end AND I learned many new things without even trying. I wish history in high school had been this interesting!

I'm a sucker for time-travel stories, but most simply aren't very well written. This one engaged me from the start and held my interest to the end. In fact, I read the whole book in one sitting, which says a lot for the book's quality. Engaging me for a full ten pages is difficult, but to engage me for an entire novel is an Herculean task! The characters are believable and likable, and I very much enjoyed the way the historical tidbits and scientific theory were woven seamlessly into the narrative and dialogue. As a writer myself, I recognize how difficult that is to do, and I heartily applaud Ms.Truscott's skill in getting it right. My only quibble is that some of Robert's speech sounded a bit too modern, but it was not modern enough to break my suspension of disbelief. I loved the story anyway. "Out of Time" has become one of the few modern books I have labeled a favorite,and I will definitely read it, again!

I'm only 61% through the book but I couldn't wait to review it. When I start reading a free book, I usually lose interest quickly. But this is a well written book with good character development. I very much recommend this great story.

Later, It's romantic without being silly. I've finished it now and still think it's a great book. I'm looking forward to another book from Deborah Truscott!!!
