If We Could Turn Back Time... Eliza Knight, Terri Brisbin and Claire Delecroix

goodreadstwitterfacebookbookbubamazonInstagramwebsite

Once upon a blustery fall day, three bestselling romance authors got together to create a boxed set of stories that traveled far beyond our times, and deep into the hearts of our characters... Thus, the THREE TIMELESS LOVES boxed set was born!

We often get asked why we write time-travels, so today we're here to share with you our answers! Leave a comment for your chance to win a copy of THREE TIMELESS LOVES—but make sure you answer our question! If you could travel back in time, where would you go?

ELIZA: When I was eight, I stood in the center of the courtyard at Versailles Palace and stared up at the ornately carved and gilded statues. I imagined kings and queens and princesses having walked there. Wondered what it would be like if I'd been a princess back in those days, walking through the gardens in a satin, bejeweled gown, and running my fingers through the water of the fountains before a ball. Thus began my fascination with history, and wishing I could travel back in time.

Guess what? I am a time traveler. I have traveled through time—in books. One of the reasons I love historicals is because it transports us to a different time, a different place, a whole new world that no longer exists. Time-travels are even more fun, because you can take a modern hero/heroine and place them back in time or push them forward into our own era. I get to introduce my characters/readers to this new place—and live through it with them again and again. Plus, I get to help two people of different eras/cultures find love, romance and overcome challenges. It's a journey that we never quite know how it will turn out.

Eliza's newest release: THE HIGHLANDER'S SIN

terri brisbinTERRI:  When I research for writing my novels, I always get caught up in the details and wonder what it would really have been like in that time or place. What was Elizabeth I really like? What did Old or Middle English sound like? Would medieval Scotland be the way I imagine it to be or something completely different?

I love to write time travel romance because I get to put my characters in times and places I'd like to visit and explore the good, bad, dangerous, exciting, surprising things they would face there and then. And sometimes, using time travel, you can create situations that make your characters grow as people and help them to see the truth in their lives. And, time travels are just fun!

Terri's newest release: THE HIGHLANDER'S DANGEROUS TEMPTATION :

claire delacroixCLAIRE: I love time travel romance for a couple of reasons. First, it's a testament to the power of love. In a time travel romance, two people have found each other and fallen in love despite having been born in different times (and maybe different places too.) I always have the sense that it's love or destiny that has acted like a magnetic force, drawing them together despite pesky details like physics. The second reason I like time time travel romance is the inherent conflict in the situation: where will the couple decide to stay? I suppose they could commute back and forth forever - the way many of us commute between our own families and our in-laws over the holidays - but usually time travel is a limited time offer. They have to choose or have the choice made for them. And that's not easy. How much would any of us surrender for love? How does the writer ensure that the reader knows neither character ever regrets the choice?

I've written two time travels, THE LAST HIGHLANDER and THE MOONSTONE, as well as two paranormal romances that featured characters from different times. (Technically ONCE UPON A KISS and LOVE POTION #9 aren't time travels, as one character has lived for centuries. There still is the sense that love has forced physics to step aside so that these two lovers can be together, and there still are differences in perspective between them because they are from different eras.) Since THE LAST HIGHLANDER is one of my favourites of my books (I LOVE the ending, but no spoilers!) I was very excited to be able to put it out in a new edition, and also to include it in this boxed set with Eliza and Terri.

Re: If We Could Turn Back Time... Eliza Knight, Terri Brisbin and Claire Delecroix

If I could go back in time I think I would like to travel to England and Scotland during the Regency Era, to see exactly what it looked, sounded, and felt like to be there during that time.
(Sandy Kenny 12:48pm November 29, 2013)

I'm greedy. All of the British Isles pre-1700. That is IF I could come home again to my family.
(Sharon Mitchell 2:10am November 29, 2013)

There are so many eras I'd love to pick, but one leaps out at me for mainly selfish reasons. I'd love to go back to the late 1800's, so that I could live during the time of my Grandmother and Helen Kelller. They were both my Heroes, and I tried to live my life in their footsteps. I'd also love to live during the life of streetcars, and see technology take hold, such as airplanes flying for the first time instead of zeppelins, for example. It was an exciting time in History, and I would be able to share it with two Women who I adored. All three of your books sound exciting in their own way, and will make for great reading this time of year!! Bring on the hot chocolate!!
(Peggy Roberson 9:29am November 29, 2013)

If I could go back in time, I would want to have my family all be with me, those that are gone forever and those that are still part of this world. Your books all seem to capture the spirit of days of yesterday, making one want to see just what it was like then
(C Culp 10:15am November 29, 2013)

Hmmm, I think I would like to see Pagan Ireland, some balls during the Regency period in England, and maybe the Wild West... :)
(Colleen Conklin 11:21am November 29, 2013)

The Old West, love that era
(Lisa Avila 11:23am November 29, 2013)

Wales centuries ago

I would like to revisit the 1940's and the 1950's once again
where I grew up.
(Sharon Berger 1:08pm November 29, 2013)

To meet my mom...
(Michelle Schafer 3:29pm November 29, 2013)

I would go back to the iceage . . . kidding! I would go back
to either the old west or the Regency times in England. But if
I had a choice for time only, I would go back 10 years ago, so
that I would have another 10 years with my brother. (Assuming
I have my memories that I already have now)
(Lazydrag0n Puff 4:21pm November 29, 2013)

The West of the 1800's
(Jean Patton 5:04pm November 29, 2013)

I would like to go back into my past to make things right.
(Kai Wong 5:13pm November 29, 2013)

I would love to travel back in time and discover history as it was being made.
(Sue Farrell 5:20pm November 29, 2013)

I would go back to the 60's with what I know now! Age does make you wiser.
(Barbara Wells 6:05pm November 29, 2013)

Regency England with long luxurious vacations in the Scottish Highlands.
(Betty Hamilton 6:37pm November 29, 2013)

I love Medieval romances so I'd like to go back to Scotland in that time. The book version since I'm too fond of soap to want the real time. LOL
(Marcy Shuler 8:09pm November 29, 2013)

England in the late 1800's.
(Jackie Stieghorst 8:32pm November 29, 2013)

I would go back to Revolutionary times in this country.
(Maureen Emmons 8:57pm November 29, 2013)

I'd do a few things differently...
(Linda Townsend 10:32pm November 29, 2013)

I think I would go back to the 5o's. It seems like it was an easier time, a fun
time to be a teen and great music!
(Melanie Backus 11:03pm November 29, 2013)

I would love to go back to the 50"s and spend more time with my Mom and Dad
(Amy Milne 12:46pm November 30, 2013)

I would love to travel to either the late 40s or to the 50s,
for the excitement of the birth of rock and roll
(Wilma Salas 1:33am November 30, 2013)

I think I would like to go back to the south in the 1920's or to England in the
1800's. I wonder how I would fare in those times.
(Val Pearson 2:27am November 30, 2013)

Id def love to go back to the 1800s and find meand old
fashioned guy that knows how to treat a lady and also to scots
back then yummy
(Rachael Kennedy 4:31am November 30, 2013)

If I could go back in time, I would like to visit my past and undo a few things. But if that's not possible, then I would like to visit the 50's and buy some stocks and property. ;) Congrats on this new release!
(April Harvey 6:50am November 30, 2013)

to see my mom and dad
(Denise Smith 7:18am November 30, 2013)

To the time when Stonehenge was still being used. I'd love to know for
sure why they built it.
(Glenda Martillotti 8:40am November 30, 2013)

I've often thought living in the late 1800s might be nice. On a farm or ranch, doing the kinds of chores that are just hobbies for many women now: gardening, canning and preserving, baking bread, etc.
(Darla Zimmer 8:42am November 30, 2013)

I love historical romances and these books look wonderful!!!! If I had to go back in time...I'd want to see my sister one more time. I lost her to lung cancer at the age of 54!
(Bonnie Capuano 9:05am November 30, 2013)

I love to win books from new authors. That way I get a chaces to read them. Thank you for a chaces to win.
(Judy Ferguson 9:32am November 30, 2013)

The 1800's, I love the old west.
(Rita Wray 10:17am November 30, 2013)

Historical time travel books are among my favorite. I would
love to win this set to add to my library.
(Angelina Daniels-Shaw 11:33am November 30, 2013)

I would go back to a time before I got married and had
kids, so that I could find my dad, and have him in my
families life. I have not seen my dad since I was two (42
years ago) and I just recently found a cousin after I saw
the obituary of her father's death in the paper. I found out
that he died a few months after my last child was born (a
son who is now ten). My children and I never got to know
my father or his side of the family, so a big part of our
history is missing. kbinmich AT yahoo DOT com
(Kimberly Mayberry 12:12pm November 30, 2013)

I wouldn't time travel. I like my air conditioning, education, soft bed, and vaccinations. I like reading about the possibility of different times and time travel. They can be very fun reads.
(Laura Gullickson 2:44pm November 30, 2013)

I would love to travel back in time to the period where my entire family were together. But, to really time travel to places and times which I am fascinated by it would be to Italy and England during the eras 600 to 1600.
(Vennie Martinisi 3:11pm November 30, 2013)

I think England in the 1800's would be a interesting time to visit. Thanks for having a great giveaway
(Julie Parrish 3:42pm November 30, 2013)

I love time travel stories and I think one reason is that ever since my husband and I took a trip to Scotland and visited the towns and cities my ancestors once lived I have wanted to be able to travel back in time and find out how they lived during their time there. We're they caught up in any of the fighting for independence from England? Did they lose their homes? I'd love to find out why they left the land of their birth and ventured across the wide ocean to settle in the United States (before it even became a united country) and how did they end up settling where they did!

After traveling to Scotland and see the beautiful places they came from I often wonder if they would do the same thing today and make the same hard choices they made to move to an unknown country and start their lives all over again.

Was it fate that forced their decision or did they simply have to face the reality of the times and either move or have their families die because of either the fighting or from hunger or on the other hand did they look forward to making a better life for themselves.

Those questions are the reason I love to read time-travel books. I wonder if they could have done it themselves if I would still be able to ask why they did move but instead would be living in the beautiful land of Scotland today myself!
(Jeanne Miro 7:35pm November 30, 2013)

I'd travel back to 9th century Ireland or Scotland
(Laurelyn Lane 7:38pm November 30, 2013)

I would go back to the 1950's to a prosperous United States with jobs and cheap education.
(LeAnn Knott 7:41pm November 30, 2013)

I lover reading everyone's comments! Not sure where I would go
if I were to travel back in time.
(Amber Kuehn 7:53pm November 30, 2013)

i would go to Germany in 1964 before i was born. so i could see my father before he died.
thanks for the chance
(Jennifer Beck 8:11pm November 30, 2013)

I would love to back to Victorian Times. Everythig seemed so elegant. Thanks for a chance to win your book.
(Linda Hall 8:33pm November 30, 2013)

I would love to meet my mother as a young woman. full of promise, in the late 1940's, and to see my beloved grandmother, aunts and uncles at ages when they were most happy. I only knew them when they were middle-aged, and they had so many stories about their younger selves.
(Beth Fuller 8:55pm November 30, 2013)

As time travel romance is one of my favorite genres, I think I would love to travel to the British Isles in the 1700's-providing I could return home after a short visit. (I would miss my w.c.)
(Lynne Mauro 9:04pm November 30, 2013)

I'd time travel back to the days of the Wild West - to larger than life
cowboys and the pioneers of the West.
(Chris Coulson 9:14pm November 30, 2013)

I would love to go back to the 1800's.
(Courteney Moore 10:24pm November 30, 2013)

I'd go to a house party in Regency England.
(Janie McGaugh 11:04pm November 30, 2013)

I don't know if I'd want to go back in time. I'd rather go into the future.
(Kristin Bingham 11:41pm November 30, 2013)

I'd love to go back to Victorian England. Queen Victoria was
quite amazing.
(Mary Preston 12:29pm December 1, 2013)
