From Booklist
Andrew McVie crashes a hot-air balloon into Shannon Whitney's backyard; they fall in love and live happily ever after. Not exactly. Andrew caught his balloon ride in 1776, and when he crashes, it's 1993. Shannon is wary of his strange behavior since her ex-husband was physically abusive. And Shannon's friend Dakota, a psychic librarian with a penchant for eating raspberry doughnuts and reading auras, warns her friend that there is something weird about a man with no aura. While Andrew and Shannon grow closer, Dakota investigates Andrew, centering on the psychic impression of the Revolutionary War, which she keeps receiving from him. Her research reveals that Andrew saved the lives of two major Revolutionary spies in the years after he originally left that time period to land in 1993. Shannon is torn about telling Andrew about his future/past because she knows he will try to return to his time. The book is a filler between Bretton's previous book, Somewhere in Time (Harlequin, 1992), and her next book, Destiny's Child (due in 1995 from Mira), but it is an entertaining story, recommended for collections with an interest in time-travel romances.
