3.0 out of 5 stars A sweet read 9 July 2003
By N. Hall - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Not the most dramatic time travel ever ~ especially since the time gap was rather short and the time traveler, Charlie, had a less severe case of "fish-out-of-water" syndrome than most ~ but a great story. The whole bit about both romantic leads being able to get millions of dollars out of the villain (the lyin' cheatin' ex-husband, of course!) was a sort of a stretch, but forgiveable. We always like it when the story ends with the right people together AND rich, right?

Any-hoo, go ahead and give this one a try. It's good reading.

1.0 out of 5 stars Cardboard Characters and Bland, Repetitive Writing 25 Aug 2003
By Trisha A. Howell - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Here and Now begins with a promising premise. A very pregnant Suzanne McDermott, who's just tossed out her unfaithful husband, rescues a mysterious man from the river who, in turn, helps her give birth and heal her broken heart. Charles Garrity has been thrust from the Roaring Twenties seventy five years into the future and has his own broken trust and anger to deal with. Will Suzanne and Charles be able to overcome their emotional baggage to enjoy the true love they slowly find together?

The novel suffers mainly from being overwritten. I don't mind much the mundaneness or even the absolute predictability of the plot. But the bland, wordy dialogue and the endlessly repeated emotional descriptions should have been cut drastically: at least 50 of the 351 pages could have easily gone and left a better novel.

Also, the characters are largely bland and two-dimensional. If they displayed a more complete past, more complex emotions and a livelier feel, then the novel could have been interesting. For example, Suzanne and Charles both describe the other as funny, but there is no humor in the novel, just a bit of annoying sarcastic corniness.

If you're suffering from recent marital breakup, Here and Now may provide some comfort. Otherwise, don't waste your time.

2.0 out of 5 stars It was OK. 27 Oct 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The book was alright, but don't rush out to buy it. This was my first book by Constance O'Day-Flannery, and it will probably be my last. I love time-travel romances. But this just fell short of what I like. The beginning was priceless and I couldn't stop laughing as Charlie found himself in a strange place with a woman in labor. But then as the story went on and I kept waiting for the romance to grow I was disappointed. It was an OK romance, but if you want good time-travel romance..."A Knight In Shining Armor" is the best!!!
