The story is set in the 23rd century. Natalia Marta is a time travel agent/escort that takes travelers to their desired destination in history. While on a traveling adventure Natalia is abducted by Robert Mackenzie. While his intent is to hold her hostage and keep her from harm the tables turn and he becomes a willing prisoner to the passion between them. Their chemistry was so realistic I could feel the sizzle. I loved that the author allowed the female to take the lead in their affair. It was hot, hot, hot, and our lead male was a more than willing student. Despite being from different times their love was so sweet that I found myself crying thinking about the time they would have to leave each other. A sudden turn of events makes it even more crucial that Natalia return to her time. Fellow time traveler, Christian Lee Hamilton, arrives on the scene to rescue Natalia but finds he may be in need of rescue because he is attracted to Robert. This is the point where I really couldn't tear myself away from the book. I was totally vested in the characters and the storyline---wondering how could they leave Rob and stay healthy. I literally stayed up and read through the night to make sure they were going to be okay. It turns out that they are more than okay and there is a surpise twist that you will love at the end.
I've read many of Tracy Cooper-Posey's books, and I'm happy to report that this one lands among my most favorite. The menage scenes are tastefully written and involve consenting adults that are engaged in a polyamorous relationship. The vampire element is downplayed with no gruesome scenes. It's a very enjoyable read.
