Wild Roses for Miss Jane (Time Travelers (Time Travelers Press)) [Paperback]

Hollie Van Horne (Author)

Book Description

Series: Time Travelers (Time Travelers Press) | Publication Date: September 20, 2006

Wild Roses for Miss Jane ~ Miss Jane Engle has found a new home, security, and a classroom full of smiling faces in her 1876 one-room schoolhouse in Albany, New York. Choosing to teach rather than to marry handsome widower and father of one son, Garrett Michaels, Jane has found serenity...if not happiness and love. When Jane reads the pirate book young Trace Michaels has hidden in his school desk, Jane is transported to a 1722 British sailing ship that is being attacked by the notorious Caribbean pirate, Captain Garrett Michaels. Although he looks just as handsome as his 1870's counterpart, there are some major differences -- the cruel and sinister look in his eyes, and the sharp dagger he has pressed against her throat. Will Jane be able to tell the Albany Board of Education "what she did on her summer vacation" if she ever returns?

This review is from: Wild Roses for Miss Jane (Time Travelers (Time Travelers Press)) (Paperback)

I very much like the time travel premise and thought that Reflections of Toddsville was nicely writen (save some typos...who proofs Hollie's books anyhow?) and it ended superbly.

So I was looking forward to the second in the series...it's got a wonderful - intriguing plot and I enjoy that very much...but why the heck does she have to overdo the sex? Enough already- the story is good enough to stand on it's own, if I wanted a purely romance novel I'd just look for that instead!

5.0 out of 5 stars Time Travelers, Inc. does it again, March 9, 2001

This review is from: Wild Roses for Miss Jane (Time Travelers (Time Travelers Press)) (Paperback)

I have read every book H. Van Horne has written, and I swear no two are alike. Each Time Travel book is its own story totally unique with great characters you never really forget. I still think about Cuyler and Trudy, and I read Reflections of Toddsville months ago. I love the minor characters: Sam and Jim Cooper and Bruce Wainwright who pop up in each book. Sam is in Wild Roses for Miss Jane too and up to his usual wild self. I thought Jane was an incredible heroine and Captain Garrett Michaels was...hot! I like all the books. But, this one is the most adventurous and romantic so far, and if you love romance, pirates, and HOT steamy Caribbean nights on soft beaches...well...you need to get this book. I suggest all of the books in the Time Travelers series, and Speak of the Dead also. I can't wait for the next book in the series McKnight's Revenge.

This review is from: Wild Roses for Miss Jane (Time Travelers (Time Travelers Press)) (Paperback)

This is the second book I have read by Hollie Van Horne and I love both of them!! Each book has its own unique story with super characters and great plots!! I really enjoy how Ms. Van Horne has incorporated Sam and Jim Cooper into each book. The main character Jane Engle is a very likeable heroine and Captain Garrett Michaels is just well...sigh...very lovable and can I say super duper hot!! This book (WILD ROSES FOR MISS JANE) has more adventure than the first one and I agree with the other reviewers that this book is so much more romantic than the first!! PLEASE...PLEASE read this book if you love sexy romance, hot pirates and adventure!!
