A book like The Time in Between comes along very rarely-it grabs you from the first page and carries you along like a swiftly moving river. Every "cliche" applies- it truly is a stunning debut, a masterpiece, and is destined to become a historical and romantic classic in the tradition of Gone With the Wind and The Thorn Birds.

This is the best book from Maria Dueñas, it's a great story, I read it so quickly because I was trapped in the book. It has a little bit of everything: romance, action, friendship and introduce you in a different culture and age.
