Book review for, "Come Back to Me," by Jody Hedlund.


About the book:

The ultimate cure that could heal any disease? Crazy.

That's exactly what research scientist Marian Creighton has always believed about her father's quest, even if it does stem from a desire to save her sister Ellen from the genetic disease that stole their mother from them. But when her father falls into a coma after drinking a vial of holy water believed to contain traces of residue from the Tree of Life, Marian must question all of her assumptions. He's left behind tantalizing clues that suggest he's crossed back in time. Insane. Until Marian tests his theories and finds herself in the Middle Ages during a dangerous peasant uprising.

William Durham, a valiant knight comes to Marian's rescue and offers her protection . . . as his wife. The longer Marian stays in the past, the more she cares about William. Can she ever find her father and make it back to the present to heal her sister? And when the time comes to leave, will she want to?

Bestselling author Jody Hedlund is your guide down the twisting waters of time to a volatile era of superstition, revolts, and chivalry in this suspenseful story.

My thoughts: 3/5 

 I had some difficulty getting in to Come Back to Me. There was a lot of technical talk and I honestly had trouble understanding. I found it kind of difficult to connect to some of the characters.

 I had no problem with the writing style, I think Jody Hedlund is quite talented! I just didn't connect with the book as much as I thought I would.

 I did not finish the book at this time but I do see myself giving it a second chance in the future.

  I always feel so bad leaving a more "negative" review because I know how much work authors put in and how their book comes from such a special part in their heart.
But I honestly think other people would really enjoy this book, just wasn't really my cup of tea.

**I was given a free copy of this book from the publisher. I was in no way obligated to leave a positive review. All thoughts and opinions expressed are completely my own.**

 As always, have a wonderful day!
