From Publishers Weekly

The paranormal and the supernaturalAtime travel and an angelic heroAcombine to dubious effect in this week novel as a contemporary young woman is hit by lightening near Santa Fe and thrown back to 1878. Casey O'Reilly finds herself under the protection of a mysterious man named Luke who claims to be a fellow time traveler and arranges for her to be the guest of an aristocratic Hispanic family. Although Casey understandably refuses to believe she has gone back through time, she never seeks any other explanation for the strangeness of her surroundings. Instead, she repeatedly tries to find a telephone and stamps her foot and throws temper tantrums when she doesn't get her way. Her personal growth is a theme of the book, but her behavior seems immature for a 31-year-old woman. O'Day-Flannery (Once and Forever, etc.) advances the love affair primarily through fuzzy philosophical discussions about self-knowing and finding one's own path in life. The Santa Fe setting and the Hispanic family provide colorful period details, but Luke's cushioning presence keeps Casey's interaction with the past strictly superficial and mostly uninvolving.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Seriously loved it!, Nov. 1 2003
Par "bicentenial" (San Francisco, CA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
After I started reading this book "Heaven on Earth by Constance O'Day Flannery, I just couldn't put it down. Every pages filled with excitment and adventure. I like the message that the author had given us that we all have our own destiny like Luke and Casey. They're destined to meet but the odd is that they met in a strange situation--"time traveling". The only confusing part of this book in my opinion is that the author wrote too much about science and new age stuff. Even though, she tried to explain them as simple as possible but still...science is hard to understand. Especially about time traveling that includes an explanation about atoms and such. But overall, I recommend this book for it was not at all as boring as it seems.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Very disappointing book, Fév 28 2002
Par "cajungenes" (Louisiana United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
I have read several of this writer's books and really enjoyed them. So I was suprised at this book. The central characters are almost unlikeable, definitely boring and lack depth. I also didn't care for all the New Age references, it didn't seem to fit. I would advise against buying this book. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't much.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Not The Best..., Oct. 26 2001
Par S. Alviar "Jaesha" (Reno, NV USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Heaven On Earth had an interesting premise, certainly different than the usual time travel romances. The fact that both Luke and Casey were time travellers was a wonderful basis for the book, however, a few things made the story dull and lacking in spark.

The hero, Luke, was very hard to identify with and seemed distant. His character wasn't explored enough and left me with many unanswered questions. His physical description was also lacking. He talked a lot about New Age concepts but wasn't clear enough on what exactly he did and why he did it. Too vague in his explanation of why he was time traveling.

Casey was a great character and she was written well. But I felt almost as if she was more concerned with having a child than with being in love with Luke.

The descriptions of New Mexico and of the customs were excellent. It made for a wonderful setting for Heaven On Earth, but the lack of good characters made the story hard to get through no matter how well the setting was painted out. It was a book that you would either love in the first twenty pages or hate by the beginning of the first chapter.
