The Drifter - Where the Trail Ends, #1
"I barely know you, and yet there's something about you that I trust. But why?"
"You know me, Maria. I'm the guy trouble follows. Best if you keep your distance."
She ran the backs of her fingers along the line of his jaw. "And what if I don't want to keep my distance?" Her voice was barely a whisper.
"Fair warning," he murmured, and pulled her close.
Caught between a greedy corporation and a desperate love of the land, Maria Porterfield barely has time to mourn her father's death. If her family is to survive, it'll be up to her to take charge-but she can't do it alone. When a mysterious drifter rides into town, the handsome cowboy seems like an answer to her prayers. But Chet isn't interested in settling down, no matter how tempting the offer...
Chet made his way West looking for a fresh start-the last thing he wants is to get involved in someone else's fight. But something about Maria awakens a powerful need to protect the fierce beauty at all costs. He never thought he'd find love, but as danger presses in, he may find there's more beyond the next horizon than just another long and dusty trail.

I would love to live back in the wild west, although a really tough time for people. They were strong and persevered.

Depends on what I've been reading. Too many interesting time periods to choose, Love this author.

I would go back in time to the wild west, love horses and ranches.
On Sep 03, 2015, Mikkii said: Time Travel
It's so hard to choose just one time but I might choose 1600's Scottish Highlands because that sort of thing has always appealed to me, it would be that or the industrial revolution to try make steampunk happen
On Sep 03, 2015, Glenda said: Time Travel?
I'd hate to have to chose only one time and place. I'd need a time machine to be able to spend time everywhere (and everywhen) but still be able to escape back to modern conveniences. :-)
On Sep 03, 2015, CandyLyn said: 1800's
Do you know something I don't? Lol I would love to see how things were back then and hope that I was kidnapped by some sexy brave.
On Sep 03, 2015, JackieW said: The West
I would go back to the opening of The West
On Sep 03, 2015, Mberbeza said: American Revolution
If I could go back to any time period, I would choose the period around the American Revolution. It is one of my favorite to study.

It would have to be the West. I love the idea of the wagon trains & cowboys.
On Sep 03, 2015, SandyH said: would stay in the US...
but the timeframe? that's a tough one. the 60s i guess -- women had more rights then than earlier, lots of changes were happening (yeah, I've lived thru them once but i was young!)
On Sep 03, 2015, kime said: Queen Victoria
I would like o go back to the Victorian era just so I could see history unfold!!

I would go back to the Wild Wild West like Wyoming or Montana before cars, planes and all the technology we have today.

I would love to be an adult in the 50s. I love the music, actors & actresses & I lust after Elvis.
On Sep 02, 2015, Jillianleighsk said: Such a Tough Decision!!
I love the 1940s! The music, the style.... But the romance of 1700 scottish romance novels!! Although, lack of medicine and clean bodies makes anything prior to the 20th century not so appealing, hahaha!!!!
On Sep 02, 2015, lasvegasnan said: Time
I would like to go back to the Victorian age.
On Sep 02, 2015, thereadingrebel said: Thanks for the giveaway.
Regency England(Jane Austen's time) or Edwardian England(Downton Abbey time).
On Sep 01, 2015, momofsteele said: Tough choice
Well, I can't pick just one. I really like when the Americas were just getting settled, and the westward movement with Indian raids and what not. But I also love the Regency and Victorian eras in England! Also a big fan of the Scotts in the late 1700s.
On Aug 29, 2015, gincam said: My favorite era in history is the mid to late 1800's.
I feel as though I could set my birth date back 100 years and not lose my stride. So much occurred during a relatively short period of time. Changes to technology, transportation, communications, social mores, religion, fashions, science and medicine, literature, art and entertainment. The American Civil War and its long-lasting aftereffects. The glory and grit of the American Old West. A very rich and revolutionary period in history.

thanks for a great giveaway...

To the Sottish Highlands during the 1700's, as long as I could come back. :) The Drifter sounds like a read I'd enjoy.

The Drifter sounds like a very interesting book. In answer to your question, if I could go back in time, I would like to visit Regency England.
