Love Beyond Time - Review

Last night I finished Love Beyond Time by Bethany Claire.  Check out the 4 star review on GoodReads and connect with Bethany via twitter and her blog.

What a great story from all aspects!  The writing was solid, the characters were detailed and well rounded and the setting (modern and past) were detailed and described enough to immerse you without bogging you down in details. 

Bri is a wonderfully spunky woman with a huge heart and the ability to fill a room with her laughter and determination.  Once she lets herself go and accepts what her heart is telling her she opens up to her new world and fills the pages with her love for Eoin and his world.  

The love story is realistic with the couple not instantly falling into bed with one another and just as one might expect, Bri attempts to shield her heart as long as she can in her unfamiliar surroundings.

The magic is an after thought to the story and fits seamlessly into the intrigue and politics that make up the majority of the non-romance plot.  The connections between the characters are real and heartfelt, the stable master to his horses, Eoin to his brother, and Bri to her mother, etc.  All off this adds to the detailed and rich world created.
