I enjoyed this book so much - but then I love anything to do with TIME TRAVEL and the WAR OF THE ROSES so it was a fantastic choice for me. There are three (3) books in this series but in my opinion the treatment could have all been handled in one book. The premise of a modern woman going back to Medieval England is great but the storyline got repetitive after the first book and certainly after two. The characters were fun and you wanted to root for Robyn even though you know the ending (if you know your Yorkist history). The author certainly puts in all the battles, places, and people of the time and the payoff is worth it. This is NOT a piece of fluff even though there is "romance" and some mild sex scenes (that could have been left out but I see that they helped the reader to understand the draw between the two main characters). Overall I highly enjoyed the book(s) but as it series it just went on too long. I am curious as to the author - he seems to not have a web presence.

Excellent.
Excellent!
This book was a great beach read, reality run away book as I call it! A warning though - I wouldn't let your children that you wouldn't let go see a rated R movie (quite a few detailed intimate scenes) read this book. Acutally - I wouldn't let them read any of this trilogy. But that being said - as an adult I LOVED the book - and the whole trilogy! Great great escape!
Fun read. Sad there is no sequel yet....
Nice take on Time Travel
This third book in R. Garcia Y Robertson's series, is both up and down, literarily and personally. One has to commend the author for being a MAN writing a WOMAN'S story, so the story is kind of fun in that regard. But the book was slower than the first two, and as a student of history, I know it can't end well for the main heroine. Since Edward marries her nemesis (unless the author SERIOUSLY rewrites history) I don't know how he will conclude this series, though I am still curious. I would suggest this if you are looking for an easy summer read, with more thrills than your average beach read - though history buffs beware! It's disappointing. Read Gabaldon for the drama or Penman for the history... this just falls in between and behind.
"White Rose", the third book of the Garcia y Robertson's time travel/romance trilogy about the Wars of the Roses, is nearly as much fun as the previous two books, but a bit predictable. By now the identity of the mysterious knight riding to Lady Robyn's rescue isn't much of a surprise, and I could have done with a bit more continual story line, without having Lady Robyn yanked back and forth through time, or menaced by "unexpected" enemies, quite so much.

This is an odd series I would imagine the principal fan base would be those who are interested in the War of the Roses. This makes it difficult to understand why the outcome of the story is presented as an unknown. Anyone geeky enough about history to know who Edward, Earl of March was surely knows who he became - and whom he married. Still the time travel element provides a good deal of fun and the romance is well done and intriguing. While I am enjoying this book somewhat less than the previous two, I am caught up enough in the story to want to finish it, and can certainly see myself re-reading it to pick up on nuances I missed, particularly in the first book.

All in all, for those who just can't get enough of the Yorkist side of things, this series should be an amusing read.
