Come Back To Me by Jody Hedlund

 

I have been a fan of Jody Hedlund for many years and have watched with pleasure as her writing craft has grown. With each book, her storytelling skills have become stronger. Having just finished Come Back To Me I believe I have a new favorite. Her storyline is strong and engaging. I love both Marian and William. I found myself staying up late to see what they were up to. I loved the theory of the Holy Waters ability. Setting the story in Canterbury added to the story. Jody included many historic sites and facts that enhanced the plot. While Come Back To Me is fantastic and complete, I am eagerly awaiting the next book in The Waters Of Time series.

Grab a pot of tea and settle into your favorite reading spot. You are sure to enjoy Come Back To Me.

I was given a copy of this book by #NetGalley with no expectations. All thoughts are my own

From Amazon:

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.

Jody lives in central Michigan with her husband, five busy children, and five spoiled cats. Although Jody prefers to experience daring and dangerous adventures through her characters rather than in real life, she’s learned that a calm existence is simply not meant to be (at least in this phase of her life!).

When she’s not penning another of her page-turning stories, she loves to spend her time reading, especially when it also involves consuming coffee and chocolate.
