Barbara Yager is used to traveling alone as she tends to her duties as a Baba Yaga. She sometimes brings Babs, the adopted daughter she is training, but her sheriff husband stays behind. This trip, though, she has made an exception. After all, the task seems so simple, and shouldn't take long to accomplish. When it is done, the three of them can indulge in a long-overdue family vacation. What could it hurt?
Quite a lot, as it turns out. What Barbara thought was a minor problem ends in a violent magical confrontation she never expected. The resulting backlash sends them all into a warped timeline where Barbara and Liam never got together, and only Barbara and nine-year-old Babs remember the truth. Liam is still trapped in his grief and all the good they've done together in the past few years has come undone.
Even worse, her Baba Yaga sisters, Beka and Bella, don't believe her, and the wicked Brenna is still out there, planning who knows what kind of mischief. The children stolen by the rusalka Maya are trapped in the Otherworld and she is loose in this one and up to no good. It is up to Barbara, Babs, and their faithful dragon-dog companion Chudo-Yudo to knit together the unraveled timeline and make things right again, before it is too late and Barbara loses her one true love forever.
My Review:
Yeah, I enjoyed reading this book so much! This series has been so great, and it was interesting to see this world, without most of the events of the series, because well, they've been unraveled. It was so great to read, to see the things that stayed the same (Babs and Jazz) and what didn't (all the husbands.)
It started off fantastic, with a family vacation. But they get pulled over by a disturbance, and oh, did it disturb their lives! It's interesting what happened, because time isn't to be meddled with, because it's not an element like water or earth. Bad things happen!
I enjoyed Barbara going on this journey, because she got to repeat some things, like saving the kids, and dealing with new things, because she spoke up about what Brenna did in the original time line. Yeah. Lots of fun!
I would've liked to have had a little more of the ending, of after she put things back to rights, but yeah, it was a quick and fairly satisfying ending. I really enjoyed reading it, and I'm glad that everybody got back on their paths, because they seem to be the best ones for each character!
Yeah, this book was a fantastic read, and I wouldn't mind spending more time with these characters!
