Book Review: The White Enchantress
A girl from the twenty-first century finds herself lost in time, 1500 years in the past. Her life, saved from the watery depths of a lake by a magical sword. Excalibur. This retelling of the Arthurian Legends explores the fantastical idea that Guinevere was a time traveler.
Knowing the fate she faces, Guin attempts to keep Lancelot at a distance after coming face-to-face with the legendary knight. Thoughts of Josh, Guin’s best friend whom she had begun to fall for, are the only barrier she has against the strong attraction she feels for Lancelot. But Josh is a millennium away, and Guin has no way of returning to him and all those she loves.
As Guin grapples with the idea of time travel, she struggles to accept that all her loved ones are gone. The life she knew is over. The wedding she ran from. The father who gave her an earldom. The best friend who became her lover. All of that is in her past, yet some time in the future.

My Review
If you love historical fantasy and romance, then you need to pick up a copy of this book. Instantly, I was drawn into this story. The world and character building that Caitriona does is what really made this book for me. I had a clear vision of what everyone looked like and the world.
The transition from the present to the past was seamless. While Guin knew she was in the wrong time period, she embraced the most of her time. Although, it was funny when Guin would say refer to something form the present and Lancelot was clueless about what she was talking about. The romance build up between Guin and Lancelot is a hot one.
As if I was not going to read the next book in this series. Author, Caitriona drops a major cliffhanger on me. What a way to hype up my excitement for the next book.
