@ Laura H: Thanks for entering the contest. I have you down for 1 entry.
Great blog title, Laura. I LOVE time travel books! I’m a big fan of Jude Deveraux’s LEGEND, and Lynn Kurland’s series of time travel books, especially A Dance Through Time. For anyone interested in PG-romances, both of these books are PG-heat level romance and fantastic reads. I’ve read both books more than a dozen times each.
