Honor Carlisle may have been born into the drákon clan but she’s always felt like a stranger to her kin—an intuition that proves true when she discovers that she is a Time Weaver: a creature with the extraordinary ability to transport herself into the past or future.
On one of her Weaves into the future, Honor encounters the very man she should most avoid: Alexandru of the Zaharen, prince of a rival tribe of drákon. As the two surrender to a desire that brings the present and future ever closer, they also risk fulfilling a terrible prophecy. Now Honor and Sandu must place their trust—and their lives—in each other’s hands, and their faith in a magical love that could restore order to the drákon universe—or destroy it forever.

Abé’s fifth Drákon fantasy romance (after 2009’s The Treasure Keeper
) introduces Honor Carlisle, whose time-traveling powers help her fit into a dragon society hidden in the midst of 18th-century England. In an original and ambitious spin on time travel stories, Honor is at once the heroine and, from a future time line, the nemesis who drives the plot. The slow revelation of why and how such a sympathetic character could turn against her values adds dramatic tension, and the drákon’s well-meant efforts to avert tragedy lead them to horrific expedients, making a welcome change from stock villains. Despite occasional purple prose and an unsatisfying ending precipitated by a third party who forces resolution on the conflicted protagonists, this story delivers a real sense of wonder. -

Having felt like a misfit within her powerful drakon clan, timid Honor Carlisle is almost 15 when a letter from herself--in the future--changes everything. Not only Gifted, she is also the only Time Weaver among the drakon. But this Gift is as dangerous and unpredictable as it is addictive, and as Honor weaves through time, she is drawn irresistibly to Zaharen prince Alexandru, beginning a relationship that has the potential either to heal and rebalance their magical world or to destroy it. VERDICT Stunningly lyrical, sensual, and mesmerizing, this enthralling tale pairs a time-traveling heroine with a hero who can literally read between the lines; a stellar addition to Abe's imaginative shape-changing dragon series. Abe (The Treasure Seeker) lives in Colorado.
