Customer Reviews

wonderful read!

i just finished reading this wonderful book and decided to review it. to be honest had i seen it on a shelf somewhere i would never have picked it, it's just not my normal style. but a friend from work loaned it to me and one evening i got bored enough to give it a try. i was immediately hooked! the people were wonderful and the story was breathtaking. my only problem was that it took nick so long to find toss again. other than that it was everything my friend promised it would be. you can be sure that i'll be borrowing books from her more in the future.

An Intelligent and Touching Story

I used to sneer at romance novels but this book won me over to the genre. (Now I'm addicted.) I liked Torch Song because for once I could actually indentify with the heroine. I was delighted to read that like me, Toss is a historian and teacher and not a model, a hot-shot lawyer, a medieval hellion who wears her brother's clothes or antique dealer or any of the other cliches. And Nick was also a delight--a tough guy with a heart of gold. A definite keeper.

Beautiful Love Story-A Love that transcends time.

This book is the perfect novel for lovers of time travel. When Toss and Nick meet, they are not crazy for each other. (But is one of them actually going crazy? They certainly think they are.) Their relationship develops, literally, over time. Their's is a love that will last forever. Fall in love with Nick. You can't help yourself. And Toss is his perfect match. When the book ends you will find it hard to leave these two characters behind. This wonderful book realy calls for a sequel.
