A Ship Through Time

Rate this book
Maggie Wollam embarks on a cruise to the South Pacific on the two-year anniversary of her husband's death--in the twenty-first century. When she awakens aboard a ship in the nineteenth century, she assumes she's dreaming. Even the handsome ship's doctor can't convince her that she must have traveled through time. Dr. Daniel Hawthorne doesn't know what to do with the odd woman who keeps materializing out of thin air and then vanishing from his cabin. How long can he hide her from the captain, the crew, the other passengers? But hiding his time traveler hardly seems to matter when the ship flounders during a storm somewhere in the South Pacific. Can Maggie travel back through time to save herself? Would she leave Daniel if she could?

I've loved all her books since I first read Under an English Moon. This is definitely not one of her best.

A Different kind of story

This was different. I enjoyed it though. I wasn’t expecting for it to end with the main characters staying on the island to be together but with the line of the story that’s the only way it could end. What a strong love to love each other enough to commit to that kind of life.

Mrs. Darymple Takes the Book! Spoilers in review!

Ok, ok of course Daniel and Maggie have my undivided attention but truly, Mrs. Darymple's presence completes the story in a secondary capitivating fashion. I do wish there were a few more details: were there any other survivors? Did Maggie ever share about traveling through time with the others--at least with Mrs. D, c'mon, the lovely woman is too sharp to avoid telling when stranded together forever!? Did Maggie regret not being able to let everyone know "a story" of where she was returning to? Did they use any more of Captain Sebastian's gold? Did that charming French captain bring them goods regularly? What is Mrs. Darymple's first name? Other than these minor details, yet another resounding success from Bess McBride. The love and passion present seeps through the story. Time travel is a secret fascination of mine and as usual, I eagerly await her next books. Well done.

A Ship Through Time by Bess McBride

I gave it four stars, even though it was a very good book...It was not like her other time travel books books..There was large pieces missing it went too fast..Not a well rounded storyline, hoping the next one is better

A great ship's tale

I love tales of the sea and this is one tall tale that Bess McBride spun brilliantly. I love this story -it held my attention from the beginning to the last page. I was sorry to see this book end. More than 5 stars for sure.

This book was refreshing to read, I do so enjoy the time travel themes. Maggie's attempts to deny the events and her subsequent acceptance are consistent with most time travel genre books. Journeying with the characters as they try to navigate the events and the time travel issue as well as Maggie's faux pas in the world she is thrust in make for an entertaining read.
