Paradox Lost by Libby Drew (5 Stars)

I loved this time travel romance with just the right mix of character development, world building, and action.  The instant love worked for me, since the characters were both strong, sexy, and lonely but also very particular about what they wanted. There were just enough details about the future to make it interesting and realistic without turning it into a manual. The author did a great job of taking examples from today and extrapolating on them. The action scenes were also exciting and easy to follow.

Time travel tour guide Reegan McNamara’s job—taking eager tourists whenever they want to go—is usually a breeze. A trip back to 2020 to watch a world-changing speech seems no different, until a woman runs away from his tour group before the jump home. Now her tycoon husband is demanding her safe return—or Reegan will lose more than just his job.

PI Saul Kildare’s business is running on borrowed time. Due to a messy break with the police, he can’t get a referral to save his life. When an enigmatic stranger bangs on his door one night and promises a windfall for a missing-person case, it seems too good to be true. But the two men have an immediate connection, and Saul can’t pass up the chance to spend more time with Reegan, even if he is clearly hiding something.

Saul knows he shouldn’t trust Reegan, and Reegan knows he can’t get
involved with Saul. But as their attraction evolves into feelings neither can deny, will they have the strength to take a leap of faith – together?
