Uff, sooooo many. But for the sake of this post I wiggeled it down to just one series.
Chloe and Cheftu Series by Suzanne Frank
My favorite of the series being the very first one ‘Reflections in the Nile’ or in German ‘Die Prophetin von Luxor’.
Soooo, my grandmother gave them to me to read when I was 13 or so. I have loved them ever since. Some might question my grandmother for this because there are rather explicit and very steamy scenes in there, but I think this is a rather German approach to life of which sex is most defenitly a part.
The books revolve around Chloe who as a modern day woman visiting Egypt gets hurled through time into ancient Egypt where she lands in the body of one high-priestess. She meets Cheftu, the doctor treating her, there who seems to have a strong hate against her (or rather the original owner of the body).
While the plot seems faily stock standart for a romance, the writing is were this series shines. The writing is so colorful and descrptive that you feel like you are actually there seeing what Chloe sees and experiencing the strangeness of this ancient world. These books made me fall in love with ancient Egypt more even though much of this book is the authors imagination but it fits in with what science has discovered to date so well that it’s hard to tell whats true and whats imagination.
If you love romance books you shouldn’t miss out on this series because once you start it’s unputdownable.
