Teena Thyme

Summary: A racy and compelling story
Review: Jennifer Jane Pope's writing is racy and the story compelling. This book is a time travel story that takes a plucky modern heroine and plunges her into the clutches of a Victorian aristocrat who is a villian of the old school. You boo and hiss him throughout the whole book. Teena Thyme is tied up, beaten, and humiliated. Despite her yearning to be free and all her valiant efforts, she remains a prisoner until ...well, I wont give away the plot. If the characters are a bit one-dimensional, they are vivid and lively, and remain in your head long after the book has finished. If I have a criticism, it is that the ending is left unfinished, leaving the reader to wait until the next volume is published until he/she finds out what happens next. That apart, it is a good read and I recommend it.
