sorry:
I was with you until the dress shop. Confederate monay in 1859????? there was no confederate money until the late spring of 1861.
You need a beter editor (or better history teacher)
normally i cut time travel people some slack No one id a total expert in history.
if you want to rewrite the story i will edit it for historical closeness.

H20Wader, you're factually right but unnecessarily mean. Giving this story a zero rating because of one historical error is uncalled for. This is a really charming story as well as being a turn-on
Lipsofanangel, I don't know myself all that much about how money was issued back then. I was guessing that most money was coin, though ... probably gold as much as possible but silver as well. Paper money was ... well, paper and regarded as such until well into the 20th century. People did use bills of various denominations, but I think they were as lines of credit. Considering what happened to the Confederate dollar, that's not surprising.
I loved it that the gentleman knew how to treat a lady and she was so pleasantly surprised by it.
You have a really nice idea and I hope your heroine finds many interesting places to travel!
This was so unusual and I loved it - so great to actually have a gentlemen ... very reminiscent of an American Mr Darcy - I can't give it higher praise than that! Do continue this story, I'd love to read it.
i really enjoyed your story but im hoping you continue it. it kina leaves us hanging there.
I normally wouldn't give this story a perfect score, but I am counteracting H20's ridiculous score. I would totally discredit his score since there were numerous spelling errors in his comments. Nice story with original in intriguing story plot!
Enjoyed this, reads like a nice mingle of science fiction and romance. Please continue, I'm hooked!
Great story, really enjoyed it.H2O wader you dont need to be talking about other people needing a better editor when you cant even spell MONEY.
Great startings of what could be a very good few chapters or series. I really hope there's more to come.
Don't tell me that's all of it! Surely we would like to hear more about her adventures.
loved it. love the time period i always feel like im in the wrong time too and would love to go back and have some fun
Not bad, it has alot of potential.
I suggest doing abit more research into the clothing of the era. The crotchless drawers are essential when trying to relieve you self
Sorry.... the crotchless drawers are essential when trying to relieve yourself in a corset & hoop. Free website about that is ElizabethStewartClark . Com
Her behavior actually isn't too farfetched eather. A small but excellent book about prostitution during that time is 'What's A Poor Girl To Do?: Prostitution In Mid Nineteenth Century America" by Elizabeth A. Topping.
It dispels alot of myths of that era.
Again, this story has alot of potential, I hope to see more one day.
