- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Perfect Timing is the perfect read for hopeless romantics. Catherine Anderson brings a time-traveling druid from 16th century Ireland to present day Oregon, with only the hope that she can stop a centuries old curse to carry her through the strenuous journey.Quincy Harrigan's sister-in-law is dying and the only way to save her is to marry the possibly off her rocker Ceara O'Ceallaigh. I wondered if maybe Quincy was the crazy one, because I loved Ceara from the first moment her character came into the plot. She's young and out of place in the modern world, yet she only wants to marry Quincy so that she can save Loni and the other first wives of Harrigan men. I admire her strength because she willingly left behind her family and home to travel into the unknown. Her charm and innocence will bring every reader to their knees!I'm usually pretty easy to please when it comes to contemporary romance novels like Perfect Timing, but Anderson is one of the few authors who raises my expectations of such stories. After Ceara and Quincy married, I had no idea where the story would go from that point. I expected the other shoe to drop, so to speak, but I could not predict how it would play out. Not only is the plot different from what I've read before, but the story seems to forge an original path in romance. Ceara has to learn to to live in the 21st century from social conventions to language and technology. It's fun to see how Quincy and his family take her into their care and heartening to see them extend their family bonds so easily, even when the going gets tough.Perfect Timing is a love story in every sense. As I read, the charming characters made my heart fill with joy and my mind wish they were just as real as the emotions they display. Please, don't miss the opportunity to read Catherine Anderson's latest novel; you won't regret it!*Book provided via The Catherine Anderson Online Review Team in exchange for an honest review*
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Entertaining story, even if it challenges the boundaries of believability. Julia Gibson does a nice job narrating this story.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book will stay with me for years. It grabbed me in the first three pages and never let go until the very end, and even then I felt connected with the characters. Some books simply don't hit on all my emotions, but this one totally did and on every level. If I could give it ten stars, I would!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Perfect Timing by Catherine AndersonHarrigan family novel, this one stars Quincy and he along with the family is praying for Loni that they will find the right antibiotic to cure her leukemia.After he finds an intruder, Cerra in the arena and has her arrested, his father Frank comes up with the family bible that does show what the woman had said-was true. The woman dressed in very old 1500 fashion and language told him what a perfect timing her being there is...Loni sees visions and she'd know if the woman was a real druid or a fake.Kind of funny to hear him explain what a refrigerator is, where water comes from, never mind all the electronics.Loni is the clairvoyant that can link her to her past but for how long and who will ultimately pay the price...This was my first Harrigan family novel and I felt I was brought up to date with the others, but not their full pasts. Loved hearing of the hen parties, too wicked fun!Not sure if the others in the family saga deal with magic to this degree but I found it refreshing after the romance novels I've been reading.0451239482
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was such a feel-good book! (Though I *was* a teensy bit concerned toward the end--had to keep telling myself, "It's a romanace. There HAS to be a HEA! It's a requirement!") I've only read one other in the series so far--My Sunshine, which I loved--and I wasn't more than 3 chapters in to this one before I was checking to see if the others were available at my library. (They are, thank goodness. I'll be very busy for quite a while now--and no doubt re-reading this one when I finish!) I thought this one worked well as a stand alone--I quickly figured out who everyone was and wasn't a bit lost--and I'm sure regular readers of the series will be thrilled to see their favorites back for this latest novel.I read this in a single day--I just didn't want to put it down. Quincy and Ceara are wonderful characters, and once I managed to wrap my head around everyone's quick acceptance (except for Quincy, and with good reason--I totally sympathized with his point of view, poor guy) of their need to get married and have a wedding night IMMEDIATELY, I really enjoyed the ride this book took me on. Watching Ceara adapt to life in the 21st century was particularly amusing. Anderson did an excellent job of keeping her in character while at the same time showing her growth. Watching Quincy adjust to his wife's--peculiarities? (I don't want to spoil anything here)--was just as fun. Honestly, it was just all so darn cute, I could have overlooked a lot of sins. Fortunately, I didn't have to. :)
