A Review of “Sophie’s Key” by Jodi Jensen
Having read the blurb and then the “look inside” for the romance novel “Sophie’s Key” by Jodi Jensen, I decided to buy the ebook. I’m not much for romance, but I was intrigued by the time-travel aspect. Then, much to my surprise, I won the paperback in a giveaway. Bonus! Since I’ve never won a book before, it was kind of like a mini pre-Christmas present, and I was pleased. Following is my review.
The blurb promises a time-travel story, and indeed, it is.
Sophie, a woman from today’s world, opens a door and finds herself thrown back in time to the Utah of 1901. This presents her with a number of challenges, the least of which is the handsome Texas Ranger widower she finds herself falling for, the dilemma of how to tell him where she came from, and adjusting to the different customs of the time. That isn’t the worst of her problems because it turns out there are other, major complications she has to deal with.
There’s plenty of action, notably when a sinister element crops up that escalates when Sophie’s key to resolving her time-travel issue is stolen. There are situational twists that had me turning pages to see what would happen next.
The author is wonderful at describing the locales and the period, and she gives such life to the characters that I feel I know them.
I confess that I don’t read much romance, but while this is such a story, it goes beyond that. It covers a range of human emotions and behaviors – and there’re cowboys, both good and bad. I do love a time-travel yarn, and I have to say that the author has spun a good one.
I read novels for entertainment, and this was five stars worth.
