A Hoboken Hipster in Sherwood Forest
Mancusi commits fully to the comic premise: a twenty-first century New Jersey photographer drops into Sherwood Forest and proceeds to be baffled by everything about medieval England while trying to locate her friend and not fall for Robin Hood. The fish-out-of-water humor is consistent, the pacing is brisk, and the Robin Hood backdrop gives the story a recognizable adventure frame. Reviewers noted it as an entertaining if uneven time-travel romp, and that's an honest summary. The straightforward caveat: this is published by Dorchester's Love Spell imprint, which produces adult romance with sexual content, and this book follows that convention. It is not appropriate for younger readers, teens, or faith-conservative households. For adult readers of light paranormal romantic comedy who enjoy historical escapism without taking it seriously, it does what it sets out to do. Worth It for its niche audience.
