You might want to check out Kay Hooper too. She's got a couple different series but I love her stand alone books, "Amanda", "Finding Laura"(my favorite), "After Caroline", and "Haunting Rachel". They all have a paranormal theme but not too far out there.

Can anyone recommend a good time travel series of books or just romance novels with time travel involved?

My two very favorite TTRs (Time Travel Romances) are A Dance Through Time by Lynn Kurland and Yeterday and Forever by Victoria Alexander. Lynn Kurland has a whole series that springs from Dance also. Both are about modern women who journey back in time; Dance to Midievil Scottland and YandF to Regancy England.

Have you ever tried any of Karen Marie Moning's Highlander Series. They are all pretty dang good, and most of them have some sort of Time Travel element.

Highlander's Touch
Taming A Highland Warrior
Beyond the Highland Mist
Kiss of the Highlander
Dark Highlander
Immortal Highlander

I don't know that this is the correct order (the last three are, but I am not sure about the first three). In any case, give them a shot if you haven't already.

Earth2Mama Have you ever tried the Time series by Caroline B. Clooney? They are mostly geared toward younger teenage readers, but they're very enjoyable. They are one of my all time favorites, and absolutely wonderful books!!!

Here they are, in order in case your interested. I definitely recommend it!!

Both Sides of Time - (I didn't write this, I found it on a webpage) Annie is a high school girl with a handsome but unfortunately unromantic, car-obsessed boyfriend. He lives at the soon to be demolished, now apartmented, Stratton Mansion. Annie dreams of the days when the mansion was at its peak and of the romance that must have occurred there. Suddenly she finds herself flung 100 years into the past in a real-life true romance, the rival of rich but plain, love-stricken Harriet who pines for Strat, the same man Annie loves. What Annie didn't bargain for was a murder mystery and a plot against the entire Stratton family by several wicked characters, working together and separately for their own selfish goals and twisted motives. It's a race against time to save herself, her true love and those around him.

Out of Time The next part of the story (I won't it give away

)

Prisoner of Time - this one isn't actually about Annie and Strat, but about Strat's sister and Annie's brother. It was still very good, even though Annie and Strat are my favorite couple.

For All Time - Back to Annie and Strat.

Susan Grant - Once A Pirate (because I will read ANYTHING this woman writes)
Angela Knight - Jane's Warlord

Diana Gabaldon - Outlander series (haven't read it but heard it's good)

Try Jude Devaraux's <i>A Knight in Shining Armor</i>. I don't usually do period romance, but it's really well done.
