“Time’s Dagger” by Margot Hovley GIVEAWAY

Posted on June 28, 2021 by EmpowerMoms

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.

Bio:
“Margot Hovley grew up a country kid in Washington State, where she filled the tedious hours of farm chores with an overactive imagination. She loves her work with her church’s international magazines, but fiction writing is her favorite creative outlet. Time’s Dagger is her third published full-length novel. She lives in northern Utah at the foot of her beloved mountains, where she chases chickens and grandchildren and teaches piano to the somewhat willing. Helping run the family business is hectic, but she loves working with her husband, Art, and several of the Hovley children. How she finds time for writing is both a miracle and a mystery.

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.
