TIME THIEF by Katie MacAlister is a very different story on time travel or time jumping. The story between Kiya an out of work with no real skills woman who has been struck by lightening twice, and Peter the perfect example of a Watch/Cop that is so focused on his job that he has no idea how to have fun and loosen up, is fun, sexy and flirty.

Kiya has no idea what she is, that is until the mysterious, violet eyed, male model Peter comes into her life. Over the course of a few days he explains to her that she is a Traveller. That she can take time from others, but make sure you pay for that time in the form of silver or the Karma that comes back to you can range from something small like swollen lips up to and including death.

Peter has a job to do in the small town of Rose Hill, that does not include seducing the interesting, beautiful and very talkative Kiya. There are murderers in his family that he is investigating that not only include immortal killings but also mortal killings. Trying to bring members of his family is not going to be easy. Peter working with the mortal police is who gave him his biggest break as to who the murderers could be.

TIME THIEF, I have to guess is like other time traveling books, that it is all over the place. At least it was only small amounts of time and not years or days. Also all the explanation of what a Traveller is and where they originate from is and not really explained in the story. You have to read the definition is the back of the book to fully understand what they are. I did not realize that was there until I got to the end. When reading TIME THIEF I seemed to be more interested in the story between Peter and Kiya then on the Traveller aspect of the story. I would recommend TIME THIEF as a good read for those that like time traveling and understand it better than me. Also if you like a good romance and are a fan of Ms. MacAlisters.
