2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed! 13 Aug 2006
By DebbieK - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I truly wanted to like this book; I looked forward to buying it. I love time travel romances, however, I found this one lacking in many areas. I found the plot to be ho-hum, not very interesting. The characters, except for one from 1929, weren't that endearing or likeable-I didn't care what happened to them! The book is littered with modern slang and cliches, so much so that it was annoying. The book's attempts at being funny and comedic seemed contrived to me as though the author tried too hard at being funny. The only good parts of the book took place when the female character from 1929 was involved in the action. Other than that, it wasn't as good as I expected it to be. The ending is a real letdown! Rent the book from the library is you must read it; don't buy it. Oh,well. Not a total waste of time but not a good read, either.

1.0 out of 5 stars what a waste of time! 16 Oct 2006
By Valerie Kelley - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The previous reviewers were far too generous in my opinion. This book was TERRIBLE! The plot was plodding and highly unbelievable. The humor was slight to totally non-existent (and stupid as well). And the characters were as unsympathetic as you can imagine-I didn't care anything about any of them. I LOVE time travel romances in general but this one left me cold as well as $7.00 in the hole. What a waste of my time and money. I thought this book would be much better.
3.0 out of 5 stars Valentine's Day and all that jazz 11 Mar 2009
By Renee C. Mulhare - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I'm a sucker for Jazz-Age music and styles, and when I first heard about this book, I was itching to find it. The tale is light and witty, and like a Damon Runyon story of Guys and Dolls, it never takes itself too seriously, which makes the twist involving VR at the end a little more credible. I think I knew all along something was up with the time-travel mechanics, but I rode with the story and while it's certainly not F. Scott Fitzgerald (though he does make a cameo appearance), it's a fun read if you like a good romance with enough historical color to put you in the mood.
