MY REVIEW

I don’t typically read Amish fiction anymore but decided to try this one out since I think I have read other books by this author. This author has written other Amish Country Justice romances, but they are all individual stories so you do not have to read them in any particular order.

I really enjoyed getting to know Lilah and Levi and their quest to discover what Lilah’s brother was hiding before his death. This story had lots of twists and turns with an unexpected finish.

I was highly surprised that I enjoyed this book and story alot more than I thought. I have two other Amish country justice books by this author that I have never read, that I plan on reading now since I enjoyed this one so much.

Clean Amish Christian with a little bit of romance. Non-graphic violence. Great suspense and drama.

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

Time travel Medieval adventure set in Ireland. Clean adventure and romance. Magic and intrigue. If you like time travel books than you will enjoy this one! I appreciated getting to know this new to me author even though I don’t usually read or like time travel books.

About the Book:
After a rough stint at work in the ER, Dillon Kelly is more than a little ready for a vacation when he packs his bags and sets off on a camping trip in the wilds of Ireland. But when a mysterious dagger covered in druidic markings appears in his backpack, Dillon finds himself hurtled into the fourteenth century. Thrust into the legends and politics of ancient Ireland, he is rescued from suspicious locals by a beautiful young woman named Ailish. Ailish has always dreamed of being a bard, but there’s just one problem: women aren’t allowed. Determined to follow her heart, Ailish has fooled everyone into thinking she’s a boy—everyone, that is, except for Dillon. He’s agreed to keep her secret in exchange for her help in finding his way home to his own time. Despite the impossible barriers between them, feelings beyond friendship soon blossom. But more than just their budding romance is in danger. Ailish isn’t the only one who recognizes the dagger’s druidic significance, and there are those who would stop at nothing to harness its time-bending powers.

MY REVIEW

This was my first time reading and reviewing an audio book! (truly!) I enjoyed listening to it in the car back and forth to work every morning after I dropped my son off at summer camp.

I learned that I need to work on having more peaceful responses to the chaos of life instead of letting the daily events and to do lists stress me out and cause stress to family members.

I liked that she emphasized the importance of being a godly mother and using the Bible and older women as an example and for help.

I learned the importance of seeking after the Lord in every situation and to not let daily events determine my emotions for the day. Which is hard to do by the way! I liked all the practical advice and scripture references.

I have read books by this author and have really enjoyed them as much as I enjoyed listening to this book.

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

MY REVIEW

Book 3 was even better than the last two books!

A brief recap was given in the first chapter about time travel , how Stone got the watch, how the time travel works and the purpose behind it; which is really helpful since these books come out every couple months and sometimes I forget specifics.

I definitely liked book 3 better than book 2 because it was less traumatic for Stone in regards to his wife and daughter. It’s interesting how Stone continues to use his time travel to try to help others and to solve cold cases, while still trying not to change too much that it alters his future.

Typically I don’t read time travel books, but this series has been incredible to read and once I start reading the book I don’t put it down until I finish. The characters are great, and the flow of the book is intriguing and easy to read.

I really like the conversation that Stone had with his dad during one section of the book- about “ wishes and what if‘s don’t change things. The only thing that matters is right now.”

I can’t wait to read book 4- Set in Stone!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.
