A Twist In Time [Mass Market Paperback]

Susan Squires (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 2, 2010

An expert in Leonardo DaVinci’s works, Lucy Rossano recognizes the centuries-old time machine the moment she sees it in a Stanford lab. Fascinated in spite of the danger, she uses her knowledge to briefly go back in time—landing in the middle of a fierce battle in ninth-century Britain. And when she returns to modern-day San Francisco, she brings something back with her: a seductive, fiercely intelligent Viking named Galen…

The presence of this enigmatic, devastatingly sexy stranger is just one of the new complications in Lucy’s life. There are others who want to harness the time machine’s power for treacherous ends, and they need Lucy to do it. Galen becomes first her protector, then the lover she’s always dreamed of. But danger is drawing closer, and time is running out. For Galen and Lucy, it’s now…or forever.

One With the DARKNESS

“Superb writing, vivid narrative combined with complex plotting, and intricate characterization make each novel by Ms. Squires an absolute winner. Don’t miss this exciting chapter in this unique and captivating vampire series.”—Romantic Times BOOKreviews

One With the SHADOWS

“Full of colorful characters, romantic locales and vivid details of 1820s life, [One with the Shadows] has a delicious pace and plenty of thrills, and her vampire mythos is both mannered-almost Victorian-and intriguingly offbeat. Bound to net a wide audience of paranormal fans, this one may even convert devotees of traditional historicals.”—Publishers Weekly (a Best Book of the Year)

“Superb…captivating…With her usual skill and creativity, Ms. Squires has crafted a novel that is passionate, heartbreaking, suspenseful, and completely riveting.”—Romance Reviews Today

“Few writers combine a sensual romance within a supernatural thriller as well as Susan Squires consistently does. Her latest is a terrific Regency vampire romantic suspense starring two courageous heroes battling one hell of a meanie.”—The Midwest Book Review

I am quite familiar with her work and I thought this was another great effort. I wanted to keep reading and not put it down until I was finished. I loved the fact that it was about regular people this time instead of vampires as she usually writes. I was pleased overall.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good time-travel tale with some familiar names, June 13, 2010

This review is from: A Twist In Time (Mass Market Paperback)

I came across the book by chance and was excited to discover that the hero is the second son of Epona and Valgar from her older book, 'Danegeld'. It is a tightly-written time-travel story with realistic interaction between a twenty-first century woman and a tenth-century Viking warrior as they battle villains who want to use the wonderful time-travel machine for their evil purposes.

As a first-time reader of Susan Squires, I was quite pleased with this book. I am now looking for the first book in the series and looking forward to the next book in the trilogy. I don't know what her vampire books are like (I am not a vampire-book lover) but I certainly enjoyed this genre. For readers who also enjoy Sandra Hill's Viking series, I think they would enjoy this one also.
