This is an amazing, beautiful romance. Even if you dislike time travel (and I do), you won't be sorry if you give this a try. Isabel is a smart and determined heroine, and Hunter is a medieval hunk worth going back 700 years for. Their love scenes are sensuous and full of feeling.

The story starts with Isabel feeling rootless and lonely, recovering from a divorce and miscarriage. She stumbles across a chalice that shows her a handsome medieval couple deeply in love. Impulsively she wishes that she were that woman, and presto she wakes up in that woman's body in 1315. Confused, she fakes amnesia while searching for the chalice to get back to her own time.

Hunter meanwhile has been wishing his new marriage was happy and trying to win his scornful wife's Detra's affection. Faced with her amnesia, he seizes upon the chance to woo his wife anew and finally consummate the marriage. He pretends to Isabel that they're a happy couple. Isabel is attracted to Hunter but resists sex because she doesn't want to sleep with another woman's husband. Moreover she can't find the chalice because Hunter has hidden it, scared that he will lose this newly affectionate wife.

I really felt for Hunter. Poor guy was so longing for love (and sex!) from his wife and a happy marriage. Sure he lied to her about them being a happy couple, and later again about the whereabouts of the chalice, but it was understandable and he apologized both times to Isabel (which makes him a bigger hero in my eyes).

The writing is excellent and the plot is well done. There's just enough angst as Isabel finds herself in 1315, but this is not overdone. The action kicks up a notch half way through, when Isabel finds out Detra was trying to annul her marriage and carrying on with another guy behind Hunter's back. What will happen to Hunter and Isabel's new relationship when Hunter finds out? Also what will happen when the supposedly magic chalice attracts the covetousness of Hunter's enemy? And can Isabel stay in this time, not knowing if Detra is trying to get back?

I really loved this romance. The HEA is very satisfying indeed :-)

The Wishing Chalice Berkley Sensation Sandra Landry 9780425194584 Books Reviews

Consummation issues?! Suddenly married to a strange man she doesn't know! And total confusion meet accidental (soul swapping), time traveler Isabel, when she is magically thrust back in time into the body of a beautiful Medieval woman. And into the loving arms of a totally hunky stranger named Hunter. He's a gorgeous, medieval warrior knight who loves her (his Wife), to death, and want's nothing more then to make her happy and take care of her forever. What girl wouldn't want that?! The answer is...his wife Detra who magically swapped bodies with Isabel.

To find (MR. PERFECT), all Isabel had to do was go for a walk along an ancient English lake bed. There in the mud she finds and picks up a magic chalice. With a little bit of lightening mixed with a heart wish or two, Isabel's life is changed in an instant. A very good instant! Isabel is now in Detra's body in the past, and Detra's in her body in the future. But, will they choose to stay this way? All I can say is Hunter's got his work cut out for him!

"The Wishing Chalice" is wonderful! I enjoyed every second of this entertaining, fast-paced, unputdownable book. The love story is excellent. The sexual situations are hotter then flaming arrows! And the adventure factor is excitingly high taking you back in time (1315), into England and Scotland's historical Medieval past during the time of Robert the Bruce of Scotland. Intrigue and danger swirl around our hero and heroine pushing this story into the breathless category.

Read author Sandra Landry's "The Wishing Chalice" and be swept away to another time and place. This book's a keeper and recommended. Enjoy!

Grade A-

Here's another enjoyable soul-swapping, time-travel tale that I found, read and reviewed...Nick of Time ~ 4 1/2 Stars.
This was an excellent book. This is my first book by this author. I will be reading more of her books. I would love to read Detra's story and how she survived in the future in Isabel's body. I hope Sandra Landry is planning to write it. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves time-travel romances.
If you like time travel romance this is a good book to read. A pity Mrs. Landry did not published more books.
like a great deal, will reread again.
