Come Back to Me

Waters of Time Series, Book 1

By: Jody Hedlund

Narrated by: Sarah Zimmerman

The ultimate cure that could heal any disease? Crazy.

That's exactly what research scientist Marian Creighton has always believed about her father's quest, even if it does stem from a desire to save her sister Ellen from the genetic disease that stole their mother from them. But when her father falls into a coma after drinking a vial of holy water believed to contain traces of residue from the Tree of Life, Marian must question all of her assumptions. He's left behind tantalizing clues that suggest he's crossed back in time. Insane. Until Marian tests his theories and finds herself in the Middle Ages during a dangerous peasant uprising.

William Durham, a valiant knight comes to Marian's rescue and offers her protection...as his wife. The longer Marian stays in the past, the more she cares about William. Can she ever find her father and make it back to the present to heal her sister? And when the time comes to leave, will she want to?

enjoyable

I very much enjoyed this story. The characters were entertaining and for the most part believable. Narrator did a good job. Looking forward to book 2.

Great from start to finish

I love Time Travel books and this one was very different than most. Very original. I enjoyed the entire book. She did a great job. The narration was great as well.

Excellent Story

This book starts right out and does not slow down until the end. Great story, excellent narration by Sarah Zimmerman, as always!
You’ll fall in love with the characters.

slow burn romance

I love the way the story unfolded and the way the romance was written! the characters were given time to get to know and love eachother rather than smutty lust right off the jump and it was such a sweet story. characters are well written and the story itself is captivating! highly recommend

Loved this story

A lovely clean read not lacking in passion. The narrator was good, but her temp never varies and is generally too slow, like every moment is worthy of a dramatic pause. Overall, though, a great book.

Easy enjoyable listen

Time travel meets romance meets action adventure. Very light enjoyable listen. Orater slightly stilted, almost like a computer, but acceptable enough to overlook.

Not what I was expecting

This was definitely not what I was expecting, but in the end, I did really enjoy it. It was written really well, the characters had depth and feeling, and premise is fascinating. It is a very tame romance, definitely no steamy scenes. I can’t fault the author or narrator so, I am giving it five stars. It is not something I will read again and I’m not gonna continue the series. This book is very religious, even when it comes to science. If you are not a religious person, this may not be a book for you.

Engaging, Interesting, Fantastic

I was never bored . Great character development, I enjoyed learning about the peasant uprising as a part of the characters’ story. I did think a lot about how a 21st century woman would stand out in the 14th century. How the author explained time travel was intriguing and pretty reasonable sounding ( from someone who does not study quantum physics for a living lol 🤣🤣 !!!)

Must listen!

Wow, I love everything about the book, the story, the performance. All of it! Can’t wait to listen to the 2nd book!

Fun and different twist

Well-written albeit far-fetched and a love story. A fun read with a surprising twist! I enjoyed it!
