Ive been told by just about every reader whos read this romance classic that its a sad story and a very upsetting one at that because of the ending, well I have to strongly disagree. Its exceptionally moving and my hats off to the author for thinking out of the romance box for once. That said, I love a good heart-wrenching cry and a tragic story and Im not saying this one is or isnt because I really think it depends on what you expect out of a romance novel. If youre on the side that saysThe most frustrating heroine Ive ever had the displeasure of coming across for a while now.Her character was too niave and frustrating for most of the book to actually feel any pity for her.Two star for the orginality of the story-line.Even Though that too it was a bit of a drag at times. :/
As with most things spawned in the 80s, this book/story did not age well. Secondly, Dougless, our heroine, was a waste of space.
Why a four-star book and a wall-banger?Hmm...could it be the ending?The book was great up until the last part where....Spoilers............................................The hero and heroine do not get together! She travels back to her time while he spends the rest of his life alone! She meets the hero's "soul in another body" on the plane home after she is sent to the present. Supposedly, the hero's soul found hers. Baloney! Sorry, you cannot substitute another person for the actual hero! Such

I'm rating this book 4.5 stars. I really really liked this but not flat out loved. I had 4 minor issues with the book. My first issue was her name. I mean no offence to Douglas's out there but it was hard for me to image a female love interest named that. My second issue was her Ex Robert. In the beginning of the book It was irrating how she let Robert treat her like shit. Douglas also didn't believe Nickolas until have way through the book. (That he was from a different time) Which was way too
i've seen kate & leopold, don't really need it set in the 80s with a cry baby doormat heroinednf @ 15%
