When Lightning Strikes

Sarah Douglas is 23, beautiful, smart...and about to marry the perfect guy. Level-headed, nice-looking, honest and intelligent, David du Bois is not only the son of her father's business partner, but the kind of man any mom would want their daughter to marry. Right? Or so she thought...until her mother gives her a mysterious "good luck" charm on the eve of her wedding, telling her that it's a family tradition and if she keeps it with her all night, she will know her heart's true desire.

Sarah thinks it's all just a bunch of silly "Gypsy hocus pocus", but she soon discovers that a walk in the night air and an eerie bolt of lightning is all it takes to sweep her out of the world she knows and into the arms of Dominic du Barbaronne, the handsome, blue-eyed leader of a band of Romanies in the year 1363.

Dominic is everything Sarah has come to distrust in men...too good-looking, too sure of himself and way too passionate to ever be faithful to one woman. But stranded in the world of Medieval France, with its lack of creature comforts and where women are treated as nothing more than chattel, Sarah finds she must place her trust in him to care for her basic needs and protection until she can find a way home. Now, if she could just figure out a way to stop feeling the things she is feeling for Dominic...and convince him that he must let her go, despite the fact he's as determined to keep her with him in the 14th century as she is to go back to her own time.

When fate deals them a hand that may separate them forever, Sarah realizes she can no longer deny the searing, white hot love that spans across time itself. The kind that only happens in that special place...when lightning strikes.

By Lee Hempel "Lee"
When Lightning Strikes is a wonderfully written novel of passion, desire and alluring adventure. You feel like you are right there with the characters living in the same time period and traveling right along as the story unfolds.
Cynthia Lucas knows how to draw you in and arouse your curiosity page after page. I look forward to reading more intriguing stories by Cynthia Lucas.

5Book that you cannot resist reading  Dec 08, 2010
By Lydia Moscato
When I get a chance I enjoy reading a good book and this was one of enjoyment. It certainly captures you in from the beginning and each chapter keeps you wanting to read on. It is a book of love, romance and adventure and it draws you into the character/characters as time travels. I'm not much into reading books that have a medival flavor but this book captured you more into the essence of the romance and adventure. I am glad that I was introduced to this book and I would read more by Cynthia Lucas.

5Great story, Love it!!  Oct 26, 2010
By cheryl borst
This story grabs you right away and has you turning page after page till the end. It is a great adventure story of romance & time travel. It feels like you are right there in Medival France with them, how they lived and how life was, especially for the women. When done reading this, you will want the story to continue on. And as I personally know the author and she is a very dear friend, I have been asking (begging) for a sequel, so hoping this may become a series. She is a very creative and talented writer and look forward to reading more of her books as she writes them.
