This book, people, is why we read romances. Obviously this is a time travel romance. The hero is from WWI. He is perfectly written. The author creates the feel of a gentleman man of that era mostly with a dead on ear for the hero's word choice and sentence cadence. His actions of course just add to the perfect characterization. And this hero, Julian, is absolutely head over heels for the heroine, Kate. Kate is an ordinary young woman of the 21st century but when she eventually has an epiphany about her purpose in life you totally believe that the hero would love her. The story was told completely in the heroine's POV alternately in 2008 and in Amiens, France in 1916. There was no awkward going for laughs thing with Julian not understanding the world he woke up in etc. This book was more serious than those written along those lines. There were still amusing moments where I smiled. There were moments where I teared up. And there were plenty of moments where I just wanted to sigh... From the first time Julian tells Kate that he loves her. She doesn't know about the time travel yet: Sweetheart, I love you. Of course I do. I love every priceless inch of you. I love you idolatrously, for a thousand reasons and I shall never stop. Hush," he said, laying his finger on my lips again. "You don't need to say anything. I'm a patient man. Just be easy. Know it's there, that you needn't doubt me on this at least." aucune critique | ajouter une critique
