GENRE: Romance
FIRST SENTENCE: Captain Aurora Durant understood that flying was a dangerous occupation.
SUMMARY: [From barnesandnoble.com] Air force pilot Aurora Durant was lucky to be alive. It hadn't been easy to bring her jet down in the bizarre windstorm, but the savvy captain had managed. Now she had to figure out where she'd landed - and when.
Lucius Antonius, senior centurion of the Roman Empire, couldn't believe his incredible fortune. A beautiful woman had literally dropped out of the sky. But before Lucius could claim the willful, impertinent creature, he had to tame her.
Soon Aurora discovered the true test of her spirit wasn't learning to live in a time two thousand years in the past, but resisting the powerful allure of an ancient warrior. Her agenda could only be returning to her own time, and falling for Lucius could make that mission impossible to accomplish.
REASON FOR READING: I like things set in ancient times.
THOUGHTS: This book was so good until the end. Then it went all cliche on me. However, it was quite the welcome distraction from studying. It got me through four years worth of politics classes. I wish the book had been longer and the plot fleshed out. The basic characters and story were great but they needed more depth.
MISCELLANEOUS: Short man skirt... indeed.
KEEP/SHARE/CRINGE(?): PBSing it.
RATING: 6/10 [Good]
CR: The Duke by Gaelen Foley
RN: Something that will get me through finals week.
