HTML: Rue Claridge's cousin Elisabeth had disappeared, and Rue was determined to find her. But she never dreamed that when she followed Elisabeth's footsteps, she would find herself more than one hundred years in the past...and in jail, courtesy of Marshal Farley Haynes. She knew Farley was baffled but intrigued by her modern ways--and Rue was just as fascinated by the rugged marshal. Enough to dream that maybe he could live in her modern world and find a place with her on her Montana ranch. But could she ask him to choose between everything he had ever known...and a future with her? .No library descriptions found. |

Farley is the marshal in charge of Pine River. When he finds a strange woman in his friend Jonathan's house who claims to be Elisabeth's cousin he doesn't know what to think. But without any proof, he can't just let her stay there. Her strange clothing and speech worry him and he tries to keep an eye on her. As strange as she is, he is also very attracted to her. I loved seeing the way he tried to watch out for her. I also really enjoyed seeing how much the things she said amused him, even though he had no idea what she was talking about. He was also a product of his time and when he and Rue gave in to their attraction he was determined that they would get married. When his plans were interrupted by a trip into the future he had a lot he had to absorb. I loved the way that he adapted so quickly. Because of the way he was educated, by reading everything he could get his hands on, he used the same methods in the future and read about everything from engines to plumbing. When Rue took him to the ranch she inherited he had to decide if he could handle getting the property by marriage rather than earning it himself. He was also feeling guilty about disappearing from his job in the past and wanted to go back long enough to end it properly. The ending was very intense with wondering if Farley would survive or not.
I really enjoyed the two books and seeing how the two couples dealt with the whole time travel thing. There was some great humor as both women faced life in 1892. I really enjoyed seeing Rue put her modern woman values to work in that time period. There were some great scenes, such as the poker game and also her facing down the ladies of the town. I thought Farley was pretty great at accepting the truth and then adapting to the future the way he did. ( )
