I loved this book! I loved how it didn't take 7 chapters to introduce the characters and get going. It only took a couple pages. That was impressive. Secondly, this book is proof that you don't need foul language or smut in a story to be successful. I love how the author kept this book super clean. There is defensive action fighting but that's nothing compared to the violence that my family reads about in the scriptures. And I just eat up a wholesome love story. I'm not only comfortable with my ...

Ran into the author at Costco and she convinced me her books were worth the read. So glad she did, this story was surprisingly fantastic. Loved the romance and the twist with time travel. I thought this book was great, but loved the 2nd and 3rd even more, looking forward to when the 4th comes out! And my 9 year old is now reading these and loving them.

I was given this series as a birthday present. What a perfect gift! Not only do I enjoy reading, but I love a great book. I was unsure at first when I received this book, but once I started I could not finish. I read straight through the first 2 books and anxiously await the third to be released. These series looks at time travel and the fantasy world of magicians and magic. The author blends history and future and fantasy quite well. I like how the characters work together, the theme of romance...

This story was fantastic. I loved diving into the world of Chase Harper. Since the story was from the point of view of a boy, I was leery of my connection to the main character; however, the author did a great job making the reader relate just as if it was a female main character. I liked seeing the relationship expand from the perspective of the reluctant teenage boy.This story had action in all of the right places. I didn't feel like the fighting scenes were misplaced, because they were brief ...

Kelly did a great job writing this book. Like others, I was apprehensive about a time travel book since there are so many places and events that can be solved through repeated time traveling. I believe this was somewhat solved with the reluctance of Chase, and the simple rules of time ever travel in this world. I look forward to the next two books as the story picked up the pace from about the half way point onward and has set the sage for a much more aggressive storytelling.The characters felt ...

I’ll admit I was a bit apprehensive when I learned that "The Keeper’s Calling" dealt with time travel. That’s tricky. It reminds me of the question, “What would happen if I went back and shot my grandfather?”However, I’d heard good things about the book, so I kept an open mind and dove in.At its very heart, it’s the story of seventeen-year-old Chase Harper. Like many young men his age, Chase meets a pretty girl (Ellie) who is different from all the other ones he had met before. There’s only one ...

This was an amazingly well written and created story. I was a bit surprised at how well the author created and explained a believable time travel theory. The characters were engaging and believable. Chase is a strong character with understandable motives and actions. Ellie is a convincing character for her time period and has some spunk to her. Their romance is wonderful and really pulled me along with their emotional highs and lows. It was an interesting experience to read a romance that is sol...

I loved this book! Such a fun read. It is fast paced and kept me wanting more. I particularly loved the time travel, I love reading about different time periods and with this book you get a little smidgen of a bunch of time periods.
The main characters are so love-able, I was rooting for them from start to finish. Not to mention that I have a bit of a crush on the teenage Chase:)
This book is great!
If you are looking to find it, this book is available on Amazon:)

I wrote the book I would most love to read and even after reading it more times than I can count, I still love it. I hope everyone enjoys reading Chase Harper's adventures as much as I enjoyed writing them.
