In Time for You by Chris Karlsen
4.0
My rating: 4
While this is (I think) the fourth book in a series, it stands alone rather nicely! Being a HUGE Outlander fan, I really found myself in love this the idea of this book, and I truly enjoyed every page of it. I did not read the books previous to this one in the series, and I don't feel as if I've missed out on anything (although I've added them all to my TBR for the near future)!
The story revolves around Medieval England, when a set of sisters accidentally travel back in time! The girls truly believed that they were in some strange version of a reality television show, which was actually pretty hilarious to consider. The banter was hilarious at times, I found myself laughing out loud.
There was also a decent bit of romance mixed in - the brewing attraction and connection between Emily and Simon stuck out the most to me. I really enjoyed seeing them learn how to love one another, and seeing how Simon would deal with a more headstrong woman. Also, the decisions Roger would have to make in order to keep his romance alive with Electra... you'll have to read the story to know more. I'll have to go back to the first 3 books to see where it began, for sure.
I found the story to seem pretty historically accurate and overall the plot was tasteful, and to a point believable. It was very well developed, and written. I was completely satisfied! So nice to see someone else doing a historical romance so well, that includes the time travel aspect! Really a fantastic read. Will be recommending to my other fantasy loving friends!
