Since this is a time-travel book, I wasn't sure I'd like it and it took me a while to get into it, but once I did, it was pretty good.
The time machine that Chuck Della Croce spent his life developing has turned into a nightmare. People who were supposed to be on his side have turned out to be the bad guys and now people are dying. Including the one woman he loves more than life. To make things right, he goes back in time, back to Maggie, to get her to convince his younger self, Charles, to stop all work on figuring out time-travel. Problem is, the bad guys have followed him. And not only that, the feelings between him and Maggie, and his younger self and Maggie, have gotten everything all mixed up.
Usually time-travel stories just don't appeal to me, and I can't say I loved this book, but it was a nice, short romance. I enjoyed the characters, especially the Charles/Chuck contrast. It was interesting how the relationships played out. And a bit sad too because one of the the Charles' had to go away because there couldn't be two. More than once I wasn't quite sure which Charles to root for...even if they were the same person.
But all in all, nice light reading. It's definitely not anything like Brockmann's Troubleshooters books, so don't read it if you're want something like those. This book is just a short romance (like a Silhouette book). If you like those, or you're a diehard Brockmann fan, then I'd recommend reading it.
