I never solicit reviews. All reviews are by individuals who've discovered my books on their own and were kind enough to leave a review. To those people, I send my heartfelt thanks.

HERE'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING...
These reviews are taken from different websites: Amazon, B&N, BookBub, & more
"This started off a little strange with the kooky weird behavior of the main protagonist, Alana, but as the story unfolded I was really intrigued. That would be a good word to describe this book, intriguing. It had plenty of action, some light moments, a lot of intrigue, and some sweet romantic bits. Overall, it was an easy read that will spirit you away on the wings of imagination. Good work." ~ Desires of a Deceiver
"I wasn't certain I wanted to read a book about two teenagers but am so very glad I stuck with it. Her characters are charming and the story truly amazing. As with her other books, I laughed and cheered, but two scenes in particular had me bawling my eyes out. In the end, I wanted to applaud, like at a good movie. If you don't read this book (and Mrs. Woster' s others), you are truly missing out on some great stories." ~ Love through Time
"This is wonderful story of a girl with a strange gift and a Destiny to be a saviour to a dying people..." `Dreamer of Destiny
"I'm blushing like a little girl, very nice." ~ Whispers of the Heart
"The two college students that this story revolves around remind me a lot of a friend I had in college, so I really enjoyed their banter. If you are expecting a typical tawdry romance, then this book isn't for you. This book is about the love of friendship and the lengths that a true friend will go through to keep you from getting killed because of your own stupidity. That doesn't mean it doesn't have appealing romantic scenes, but they are part of the story, not the story itself..." ~ Love through Time
"I thought this was going to be a romantic comedy, and it did have quite a few funny bits. What I did not expect, but what was a pleasant surprise, was how it went from funny to being a kind of an action suspense type read. It was more than I thought, so I'm glad I read it." ~ Fate's Intervention
"The first thing that made me pick up this book was the cover. It is well done and definitely gets your attention. The next thing that got me was how I was unable to put the book down. I literally read this book in one day..." ~ Only One
"I absolutely loved this book. One of my favorites from this author. It's closer to being realistic than most romance novels and I couldn't put it down. I felt for the characters, hated them, questioned their actions and just overall couldn't wait to see how it ended. LOVED IT!" ~ Victim of Love
"I really liked this book. The method in which the H/h were brought together was a refreshing change from the norm. Probably the most appealing to me was the humor throughout the story. Marcelle's witty personality showed her strength but she wasn't overbearing and outrageously so..." ~ Fate's Intervention
"Characters were realistic, filled with western & American Indian flair that keeps you turning the pages." ~ Desires of a Deceiver
"A story that will make you root for the good and despise the bad. It's a story of friendship, hope, and love. It made me laugh AND cry. A really good read. Definitely recommended." ~ Love through Time
"Holy cow! I almost didn't get past chapter one because I thought, "oh this is like so many other mindless romance books", but I did get to the end of chapter one and then couldn't stop reading. The twist at the end of chapter one snared my attention, but then...holy cow! Poor Cara! What she endures is unimaginable, but though it seems at times that she's ready to give up, she fights on, surviving unbelievable torment. The ending was most astounding of all, and not at all what I expected. What an incredible story!" ~ Victim of Love
Response to PREVIEW OF ONLY ONE ~ "What! what! Can she do that????? OHHH NO ! I hope she's not looking at the personals!!!!! What a great way to get me looking for chapter 8! I love it!"
"This was a spectacular read. Difficult to put down. The trials that the main character, Christina, went through...well, there were times I laughed, cheered, cried, and wanted to strangle those trying to harm her. Highly recommended." ~ Dreamer of Destiny
"My favorite romance novels are the historical romances, but this one does a good job of capturing your attention and have a nice mystery to try and figure out along the way. Very well written." ~ Whispers of the Heart
"Absolutely and most definitely not what I normally read - historical romance is not my thing at all - but as I was reading the "sample" I was immediately drawn into the story by the witty and amusing banter between the protagonist, Marcelle, and her father, Peter, over Marcelle's refusal to select a husband." ~ Fate's Intervention
"This book had a wonderful story, loved the mystery behind the romance. It came together very well. Loved it! Read it in 2 days." ~ Only One
"This book had an unique story line. It was well written and held my interest through out. Will definitely read more of this authors books." ~ Love through Time
"Set in the late 1800’s this is a story that captures your heart and makes you crave for more making you unsure whether to cry or laugh with the strength of the story. A strong female lead in that era is made believable due to the talented writing of Ms Woster. ..." ~ Dreamer of Destiny
"I liked the story. It wasn't predictable which made the story realistic. Because the story was realistic, it didn't have the proverbial happy ending..." ~ Victim of Love
"The plot moved at a nice pace, with believable characterisation, with lots of little sprinkles of humour. In fact I loved Christina, and the whole internal dialogue she had going on. That girl was definitely one tough cookie. It did leave me wanting more, and this author is now on my list of "good story tellers. Be brave and give it a go." ~ Dreamer of Destiny
"I so seldom have time to sit down and read anymore, but I'm so glad that once I did I chose this one. It's not often a book will keep me up until the wee hours of the morning without realizing the time. I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I often like the historical romances but they seldom engage me to the point that this one did. Heartwarming with that strong sense of family that so many stories today are missing. I highly recommend Fate's Intervention!" ~ Fate's Intervention
"I loved reading this book. I enjoyed the challenge of trying to understand the dreams. I found myself not wanting to lay it down to do other things, I wanted to keep reading to the end." ~ Dreamer of Destiny
"Love Through Time by Barbara Woster was a great read, taking you from current time back to 1869. The time travel and journey that these women went through was amazing to say the least and the storyline, kept me well entertained." ~ Love through Time
"This book gave me a lot of good tips and tricks to try. I have a middle schooler, kindergartener and infant and gleaned some great techniques for each age group." ~ Parenting in the 21st Century
"I had not read anything by this author before, but I loved this book - the story kept me reading and riveted to the very end. I will be looking out for more books from Barbara Woster." ~ Dreamer of Destiny
