Review:

"Egyptian Heart" by Kathryn Meyer Griffith was a different type of romantic read...through time travel all mixed up in the past (1340 BC)  Egyptian life,  culture and then brought in a romance of a woman from the twenty-first century.  I really liked the way this wonderful author brings us another one of her good novels... that will captivate our attention for the reader to want  more.


The storyline was simply well written with lots of detail. This was definitely a page turner for me.  Maggie Owens was a Egyptologist who was given a  grant for three months to work in Egypt (Great Pyramids)  to explore the areas around Gizah searching for the 'lost tomb.'  In Egypt, its  life has very harsh, hot and lonely...however, Maggie  finds the ancient tomb of Ramose, Nakh-Min...and then  finds the secret area that had a 'magic  amulet.'  Maggie had already been given a amulet for protection....everything was fine until the two amulets touched...and then 'Maggie falls and the past comes forth where she meets Ramose...who was the servant of Pharaoh Athenationa and Queen Nefertiti.'  How did Maggie get there and will she come back? What was Maggie up against with the people?  How does this 21st century woman  deal with this situation...now in ancient time ....'of being a woman of lesser value ...and even  slaves to the men?'  Would Maggie find love in this place with all of the violence, turbulence and danger that was all around her?  Being the master storyteller that this author is...... using  historical references about the Egyptian pharaohs and the politicis delivering her message in the story to the reader.   Now this is the part where I say you will have to pick up this good read  to find out....I did and enjoyed the read!

If you are in for a strong hero, great heroine and loss  of action-pact with some real interesting characters from the time long-past....then I would recommend  "Egyptian Heart"  as a excellent  time travel romance novel  for you.
