Description
Cavalry scout Judson Stone needs to warn Lawrence, Kansas, of the impending threat of Quantrill and his raiders. Shot and left for dead, he awakes in a strange new time and place. Guilt riddles him over his failed mission as the days pass and he struggles to find a way back to his own time –and overcome growing feelings for a woman who doesn't trust him. Sadie Winters has her hands full juggling a full-time job, a start-up business, and the chore of keeping tabs on her mischievous grandfather. She doesn't need the further complication of caring for the stranger Gramps brought home. Little by little, the mystery surrounding Judson is revealed, and she throws herself into helping him find his way back to his own time. But how can she send him back, knowing she's fallen in love?

How far will someone go to fulfill their duty? Can love conquer all? Even time?
N. Jade Gray shows us in Raider of Her Heart a time-travel novel which takes place mostly in the present.
I like the Hero, Judson Stone, travels not only in time but in the US Midwest. Though tired and drained emotionally and physically he is charged with delivering a message in an attempt to thwart a raid on a nearby town.
Sadie Winters lives in present-day Kansas. She has a job she's good at and shares her home with Grandfather. She raises and trains miniature horses as service animals. Recovering from a failed relationship, she is finding her way again.
I enjoyed many aspects of Raider of Her Heart. Judson as a man-out-of-time is smart, capable, and a gentleman. Sadie is kind, funny, and spunky. Grandpa Walt is a great secondary character. My only gripe about him is when I realized his true age I'd expected a much older man. At sixty-eight, his portrayal was not what one would expect in this day and age. However, that said, I really like him, his kind heart, and youthful attitude.
The story moves along at a good pace, and both Sadie and Judson make life-affirming and life-changing decisions. In the end, the author raises the question I think many would wonder about if time travel were possible. Can a time traveler change the future?
I recommend the book as an enjoyable and often amusing tale. One with a satisfying love story and ending.
