      Synopsis

      JOURNEY TO THE PAST... A tale of romance and survival as three people travel from 2236 to the beginning of time. Jennifer Daykin joins the three-man crew to explore the newly discovered planet, Eden. All was going well until Jenny found herself deserted... She listened for an answering shout - there was nothing. In the distance, Jenny was transfixed with horror as the space shuttle rose into the blue sky of Eden. 'No... Don't leave me here!' Only the pounding of her heart answered her. ...but not alone The instant she hit the floor she curled into the foetal position. Finally, the bare feet walked away. A Native American warrior, had been her first thought, but it was his eyes that had alerted her he wasn't an Indian or even human. They were completely black; black, dry orbs in a battered face.Ordinary people with ordinary emotions, fears and insecurities. Only this isn't Earth, and he isn't human. A modern day Adam and Eve.

      August 09, 2009: I like odd books, and thought sci-fi mixed up with romance an odd mix so of course I had to buy it. It started off quite dark when Jenny was left stranded on eden, and got darker still when she had to fend for herself and think she was at risk from an alien man.

      I wasn't sure where it was going at all, but then the dark lifted and I could see where the romance was coming it.

      An orginal setting, but a story as old as time.

      I loved it.

      I Also Recommend: Spell of the Highlander (Highlander Series #7).

      April 28, 2009: enjoyed this a lot. Aliens, sex, survival, romance, jealously, insecurities all contained in a tight plot that revolved around the main character being stranded on an alien planet. Unbeknown to her an alien craft had crashed there leaving one survivor and he is one sexy, but scary, alien.

      I loved the subplot of the "first man" wolf creatures. Why not man evolve from from bear/dog animals instead of apes?

      A first novel of a self publisher? Do not be put off!! This book will do well.
