"What a time travel this is!!"

When we first meet Cara Reynolds, she's sweet sixteen. She has parents who not only love her but they love each other. She has a doting grandfather who has given her a new foal and her parents gave her a beautiful antique silver pendant that had been in the family for generations. What more could she ask? Then her life changes in the blink of an eye when someone runs into them in a head on collision. Cara is thrown out of the car and a young man named Michael saves her life by taking her to an abandoned mine tunnel so she won't freeze. When Michael goes to get water for them and comes back, Cara has disappeared.

Nine years later, Cara goes back to the same mine one last time to say goodbye to her memories of Michael. When she goes into the mine, whom should she meet up with but an injured Michael! She takes him home so she can take care of him. That's when she finds out that Michael is from the 1800s. Now all they have to find out is why and how they each have traveled through time. What they find out is a web of mystery and deceit that has spanned a hundred years. Can they figure this out and change history?

This riveting book was hard to put down once I started reading it. The story takes us from present day to 1888 chapter by chapter so we see what is happening with Michael and Cara and what is happening to the people that Michael has left behind. The fact that Cara and Michael went back and forth through time was what made this time travel so interesting and so intriguing. As always, I eagerly look forward to the next Dee Davis book.
