This book, by new-to-me author Jackie North, needed an editor to address the numerous run-on sentences and comma splicing incidences. The love story didn't work for me either - I didn't buy it that the two MCs were madly in love within one day after meeting in such strange circumstances. Furthermore, it was unbelievable to me that Stanley could accept so many mind-blowing changes of the 21st century with little more than a shrug.North did a very commendable job at portraying the horrors of World War I, especially for a young American “doughboy” like Stanley who had enlisted with no idea what he was about to experience. I was happy that he found some happiness in the highly improbable way that he did, but I didn't buy the “forever love across time” trope that connected him to Devon.
