Summary:Sebastian Moran can't pull the trigger on John Watson to save his own hide, and what the hell is it with the doctor, anyway? Then Gandalf shows up, meddlesome wizard, and reminds him none too gently of his past life: as Thorin Oakenshield, leader of a company that had once included a small hobbit named Bilbo Baggins. One that looked decidedly like John Watson. And this would be the perfect chance to make things right with Bilbo the way he really hadn't been able to before he died, and that's when Gandalf tells him John doesn't remember being Bilbo, and to leave him alone.

Right. Like that's going to happen.

Review: This series is a great romantic thriller. All the characters are a good combination of who they were in their passed lives and who they are in their present lives.

The villians are a nice mix of new and old, and it keeps you guessing. Authoressjean even manages to throw in a few curve-balls to add to the whole experience.

I can't tell you much about the plot, without giving away the twists and turns, but there is a very nice romance twisted in among all of the intrigue, and no matter how bleak it seems when you are reading it, the ending is nice and happy.
