The relationship between the heroine, Sunny Stone, and the hero, Jacob, can only be described as fireworks. Sunny is no shrinking violet. She's a 4th-degree blackbelt that's obtained degrees in numerous professions, a thoroughly modern, independent woman. So when Jacob shows up at her mountain hideaway demanding the whereabouts of his mysterious brother, Cal (from the first book in this series) and decides to stick around until his brother gets back from vacation, it's just scene after scene of...more

Fans of contemporary romance with a hint of sci-fi
This story from 1990 was just a bit dated, the technology is quaint. Other than that, I thought this a five-star read.
A time traveler comes to present-day (well, 21 years ago) Earth seeking his missing brother about whom we read in Time Was. Dear bro is away for a few weeks doing stuff in the wild with his anthropologist love and cannot be reached. In the meantime, our heroine, the sister-in-law of our hero's brother, acts as hostess. No evil villain, no suspense elements, no crime to battle. Ro...more

It's worth reading this book for two main reasons. The first is that it's a fun story (although I liked the first one, Time Was, better). The second is that the heroine, Sunny, is the prototype for some of the author's later heroines and it's really interesting to see the original in action. Think of Liz, in 2012's "The Witness" - brilliant, educated, can do anything in any field. That's Sunny...or rather, Liz is Sunny, enhanced with some aspects thanks to the writer's maturing style over two de...more
I should have listened to my gut instinct and passed on this one. It's not a bad or boring read, it's just that when I read a book I want to read something that keeps me really entertained I'm afraid this didn't do it for me. I'm a big fan of hers, but she blew it with this one. It's as if she didn't put her heart in it. Clearly not her best work. If you have a limited budget for books, you may want to save your money for something better.
I didn't like this one as much as the first book in the series, but it was cute. I just thought that the story was wrapped up too quickly without enough conflict considering how much of sacrifice the hero or the heroine was going to have to make in the name of love. I just thought it was done better in the first book, so it made this one pale in comparison.
One of the best early Roberts I've read, better than the first of this "Time Travel" series because the heroine is strong and cantankerous enough to remind one of current Roberts' women. And that's good.
TIMES CHANGE by Nora Roberts is the 2nd and final fiction novel to complete this set. Again, the themes of time travel and romance blend to make an attention getting read!
Sweet story. Mild conflict. Less believable than Time Was. Good Romance.
Not as good as the first in the series. I skimmed the last 20 pages for essential dialogue.

This was an unusual theme but as always she pulls it off.
kitabın yazılış tarihi itibariyle scifi alanında yetersiz kalıyor tabii ama detaylara bakmayıp bazı yerlere takılmazsak ben sevdim fazlasıyla bu seriyi türkçeside çıksa güzel olurdu diye düşünüyorum:)
