Once in a Black Moon

I really enjoyed this book.I was looking for some thing different,and this certainly fitted that category.I loved the author's imagination and the story was interesting with likable characters.The pace of the book was good,and it was a great read.Thanks to the Publisher and Netgalley for an ARC.

This book takes the reader on quite a journey. The story starts in 2016 with a young woman who is a journalist. She is someone who is passionate about her story, and will fight to get it published. This same desire is one that causes an accident to happen. She then wakes up in the 1900s and she is in Canada. She was rescued by a Canadian Mounty. The journey that she goes on with the mounty is one of adventure, crime, romance and mystic.

When she meets the Romanian Mystic, who actually saved her, that is when the mystery gets confusing for Erin. She is balancing both worlds - 2016 and 1900 - and she is balancing two people who are trying to help her.

Sometimes it was difficult to keep track of who all of the people were in the story, because there was a significant amount of inter-weaving, but the character development was on point and that helped a lot with following the storyline.

I appreciated the social issues that were brought up in this book from 1900 - that were seen as cultural norms, and Erin (the young woman in the book) had some thoughts about those traditions. One such was the length of her hair - which she cut shorter and people in town had things to say about it.

I felt like this book had something for every type of reader. I especially enjoyed the moments where they were trying to solve the crime and there was an element of mystery.

This was a very nice time travel romance, the story was engaging with well written and likable characters!!
