**Book 1 of The Glimpse Time Travel Series, where mythical muses play naughty matchmakers**
Kidnapping mortals to different eras is such fun. Trickster muse sisters, Clio and Erato, call it a glimpse, but military historian Minerva Ferguson, Erva, is fairly certain she’s gone nuts when she wakes two hundred miles from her apartment. And two hundred years in the past to Brooklyn, 1776. In an unfamiliar manse, during the American Revolutionary War, she’s not too sure how to regain her sanity. Especially when she realizes whose mansion she’s just woken in, the one British general she studied more than anything else, Lord William Hill.
When Will hears Erva’s screams of panic, he breaks down a door to save her, even if he can’t quite remember why she’s visiting. She calms, though, the instant she sees him, as if they’ve known each other for eons. From the second he sees her dressed in a toga made from a bed sheet to later when she’s with his troops, wooing them with her musket skills, he realizes he’s smitten. But he’s a weary soldier, shrouded in grief, while she reminds him of a sun goddess. Is she too good for him? Lord, how he wants her to want him.
How could Erva not fall for a guy who accidentally quotes a Cheap Trick song? But now she has to get to the bottom of if Will is really a rake, how to stop one of the most important battles of the war, and lastly how to stop her insane crush on the general. After all, he’s going to die in less than a week.
The muses have to work fast for this glimpse. But that’s when they work best. And as explosions erupt through New York, sometimes it’s not from the artillery.
Enemy of Mine The Glimpse Time Travel Book 1 edition by Red L Jameson Romance eBooks
Enemy of Mine takes place during the early days of the American Revolution in New York. The author has a solid command of military history and weaponry, but fell short on most other aspects of this time period. Our heroine appears in the home of a British general, quite literally, out of thin air, dressed in a gold toga. She is disoriented, unaware where she is, how she got there and if she even has clothes to change into. And yet, within a day the H and h are madly in love and lust with each other. Within 24 hours, the h is allowed to accompany this high ranking officer everywhere he goes - to watch his troops train, to test their weaponry, to social banquets and teas. Although she has 21st century sensibilities, manners and speech, she is miraculously accepted by everyone as an aristocrat. This is the summer of 1776 in New York City, a time of divided loyalties with both the British and Continental armies facing off across the East River and no one, NO ONE asks her who her family is. Bloodlines were paramount to these people. She chats up some of the most famous, high ranking British military commanders, and they all just accept her as an aristocrat. Then things really go downhill with the numerous pages of thoughts of repetitive self doubt juxtaposed with numerous pages of lustful thoughts and graphic descriptions of what said lust was doing to their various body parts. If this had been thrown in a couple of times it would have just been boring, but I found myself yelling at my Kindle, "Not again," "I get it," "Enough, already." It seems the author thinks her readers are too dumb to remember her characters insecurities or lusting, so she continually beats us over the head with this information. I am not a prude and don't mind sex in my books - when it is well written and enhances the story. The sex scenes here are gratuitous and more mechanical than sexy. In summary, there are great storytellers who, through their writing, transport you to a time and place where you can see, feel and smell the surroundings and embrace characters of depth and intelligence. This was not one of those books.Product details

Enemy of Mine The Glimpse Time Travel Book 1 edition by Red L Jameson Romance eBooks Reviews
As a lover of many time travel novels, I enjoyed this book. It was well researched and was an enjoyable story. It has humor, suspense and romance. It’s the story of a beautiful Harvard trained historian stuck in her career because she won’t stand up for herself. Her doctorate dissertation, which hasn’t been approved, focuses on the American Revolution. In this glimpse, she is sent back to really get to know the general she has written about. What really took away from the quality of the storyline was the atrocious, or probably lack of, editing. For an author who has written professional historical papers, grammatical lapses like those seen in this book are inexcusable. Some examples follow cantor instead of canter to describe a horse’s gait; allusive instead of elusive to describe a hard to find friend; Man of Wars instead of Men of War to indicate more than one ship; bullocks instead of ballocks to indicate, well, you know; laid instead of lay (OK, everyone messes this one up, but an editor should have caught it); “I don’t how I know . . .” missing the word “know” before how; breath for breathe (no excuse); peeks for peaks; brazier for brassiere. The errors were prevalent enough to grate on me as I read. I’m not an English major, I majored in organic chemistry, so there are probably a lot more grammatical errors I didn’t catch. Independent publishing is great, and it allows some great stories to come to the market. It’s a shame when those good stories are diminished by rampant grammatical errors or lack of editing. While this was a good story, if grammatical errors grate on you, don’t read this book. If you don’t mind them, and you like time travel stories, then you will probably enjoy this book.
I was expecting much better than this from the reviews. I have read a lot of time travel books many of them are fairly shallow but some are quite well developed and thought out. This one was not so shallow I couldn't stand it, however, if left a lot to be desired. I found the main character, Minerva, to be very immature and not very deep. I found Will's character to be unbelievable. The sex scenes were belabored and left me wanting them to hurry up and get it over with so I could see if the book got any better. Too many subplots as well. The muses were unnecessary, and I would have liked to see a different method used for the time travel aspect. It was disappointing.
