A Tumble Through Time by Callie Hutton

Anna runs back to the apartment to find something she forgot and finds out something she that ruined her life:  Her fiance entwined with her roommate on the couch, both nude.

The author and Goddess Fish Blog Tours shared an ebook of this story with me for review (thank you).  This book is available wherever you buy ebooks.

I'm always fascinated by the idea of travelling back in time and trying to live in the era you land in.  In this case, Anna goes back to the 1870's.  Women have no rights, they are to be protected by their man, and they don't have jobs either.  Needless to say, Anna does not take this sitting down.  She ends up getting fired from the jobs she does acquire because she doesn't act like a lady (in 1870).  Shooting a man trying to coerce her into his bed in the hotel just isn't condoned.

The sheriff attempts to help her, thinking she's fleeing her past.  When she finally tries to tell him where she's from, he thinks she's crazy.  It's even worse when they find themselves falling love.  Who knows how long she's going to be there or when she's going back?

The tale of a modern day woman in western days was fun to read.  The romance made my heart pitter-patter.  And I was despairing over the ending of the story when the author found a unique solution to the time travel situation.  I really enjoyed this book and recommend you give it a read, too.


Callie will be awarding an Ebook copy of Emma’s Journey to a randomly drawn commenter at every stop, and a grand prize of a $25 Amazon or B&N GC to a randomly drawn commenter during the tour.

Love the sounds of this book! I love the fact that an independent woman travels back in time and has to learn to deal with how society treated woman in that era. Lots of potential for fun!
