The Keys of the Watchmen by Kathleen C. Perrin
 
Katelyn Michaels plans on hating every moment of her visit to Mont Saint Michel with her father’s new French wife. Once there, she is confused when she experiences sensations of déjà vu and hears voices as she and her younger brother explore the medieval village and abbey.

When the oddly-dressed but alluring Nicolas slips Katelyn a strange medallion, she is whisked back through time with him to the 15th century where her Watchmen hosts tell her she is the only hope to save Mont Saint Michel from the invading English armies. Even worse, she learns those armies are led by a fallen angel intent on learning the mount’s closely-guarded secret.

Katelyn is torn by feelings of anger at being taken back in time, inadequacy at finding a modern solution for a medieval problem, and responsibility for the mount’s starving inhabitants. She is also perturbed by her surprising attraction to the ill-tempered Nicolas. Will she stay to learn why she was chosen by the Archangel Michael and find a way to save his mount?

My review;

Katelyn Michaels is not at all happy. She has to visit her father and his new wife even though she does not want to. While she visits old places with her brother she starts to get the feeling that she has been there before. A man named Nicolas hands her a medallion and the next thing she knows she is back to an earlier time in history. Her watchmen then explain  that she has to save everyone from the English who are going to attack. She is not sure what she can even do and that really makes her mad. What can she do? Why has she been chosen?  I really enjoyed this novel. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for the purpose of a  review and all opinions are my own.
