Chloe and Cheftu are once again thrust through time in this second installment of J. Suzanne Frank’s amazing time travel series. Last in Egypt during the biblical era, now the couple ends up on an island kingdom that turns out to be the fabled Atlantis. As the volcanoes rumble their warnings and the seas heave, the inhabitants struggle with plague, political conflict, and godly aspirations. Their doom already sealed, Chloe and Cheftu must determine their purpose in this place before they can escape to yet another time period. Fascinating details of the Minoans and the Aztlans, as the Atlantians are called here, pepper this story along with bull worship, cannibalism, and prophecy. Only Chloe and Cheftu’s love for each other keeps them sane and helps them to survive. You’ll be left eager for the next installment in this gripping series. ( )

Not bad, 2nd in the series, but I did like the first book better, Reflections in the Nile. This book can be confusing at times, it took me a long time to get the names straight and to understand who was who and what was going on. But, by the end I understood it all, but it was interesting reading about the culture of the Aztlans and the continuing romance between Chloe and Cheftu. I'm intrigued by the epilogue and what will happen in the next book.

A woman travels back in time. A wonderful historical romance. The love story is so romantic. The history is fasinating. ( )
