Review: One Magic Moment by Lynn Kurland


From Goodreads:
Medieval studies scholar Tess Alexander is thrilled for the chance to live in a medieval castle. But then a trip to the village brings her face-to-face with the owner of the local garage, who looks a great deal like the man who married her sister...800 years in the past. She's determined to remain objective about magic and destiny, but she can't help wondering about that mysterious, sword-wielding mechanic.

Sometimes girl just needs a good medieval, time traveling, hunk of a stud knight with overprotective manners and a fast car.  Right?  One that makes you swoon with his awesome sword swinging and lute playing abilities.  That would be exactly what you would find in this book.  Now, I can't read these type of books, one right after another because then they all become the same.  But, with a year in between, um hum, I like 'em.  :)  I won this book on Goodreads.

For my friends who care about such things, there were many, many uses of hell and damn and a few arses thrown in as well.  Aside from the language, it was a clean romance.  (I was almost getting annoyed because it took SO long to even get a kiss going...)

  3. Definitely different than the ones where it gets hot & steamy from about page 18.
    Your comment made me laugh.

  4. I have heard good things about this series but have not read any yet. I hate picking up a series half through so I guess I need to start at the beginning.

  5. It's been years since I read a lynn Kurland book. I enjoyed them, remember them being a bit racier sex wise than your review mentions. I think there was just so much competition she fell by the wayside.
