Only one piece of information stands between Jordan Albright and her doctorate. Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, she just can’t seem to find out what happened to Isabella Tempest and the erotic arch she created for the 1893 Chicago Fair. It’s as if she disappeared from the face of the earth and took the arch with her. Jordan even went so far as to research her brother, Nick Tempest looking for clues, but the only thing she learned was that she was strongly attracted to Nick even though he’s been dead for over 100 years. When a mysterious clue leads Jordan to a museum exhibit with Isabella’s arch, somehow Jordan winds under the arch up in 1893 staring at Nick. Jordan soon finds herself trying to adapt to the Victorian era of dress and customs, while at the same time growing closer to Nick. Jordan knows that Nick will be dying soon, but her love for Nick is so strong, that she finds herself wondering if she can change history to save Nick’s life.
This is the third book in the Perfect Timing series and the first out of the three where I completely felt comfortable with both the hero and the heroine and the setting. The ending left a few loose threads in the story, but other than that it was a very satisfying read. Now if the Blaze editors would only create a time travel story where that took place in the future. :)

Bottom line: A very good book
