Tremors Through Time

by Anastasia Abboud

GENRE: time travel romance

BLURB:

She's made mistakes and paid the price, but Deidre Chisolm is no quitter. She'll never again be a fool for a man, not even her gorgeous new neighbor with his haunted eyes and strange accent. She'll be friendly, but nothing more.

Lachlann has to go back to fourteenth-century Scotland. He can't forsake his family, his son. But when a beautiful, kind, funny lady buys the house next door, he's never been so drawn to anyone in his life. Would she believe his story? After years of struggling through nightmares and flashbacks, headaches and illiteracy, dare he ask her to help him return?

EXCERPT:

This morning, to her astonishment, Lachlann had arrived carrying a handsaw. A handsaw! But any concerns she might have had about his time or trouble had disappeared in moments. He was sure, fast, and strong—so strong. Watching him was like a dream, a strange, delicious dream.

Pushing the kitchen door open with her shoulder, she stepped out. “Lunch is…glory!” She almost dropped the tray.

Bronze, damp, male…Lachlann’s powerful torso glistened before her, barely covered by a form-fitting, white muscle shirt. He was the most amazing sight she’d ever laid eyes on.

He was still sawing boards on a makeshift sawhorse and had worked up a sweat. His T-shirt was slung over the back of a chair. She watched, fascinated, as he sawed a thick board. His shoulders were massive; they moved almost like separate entities. His chest was vast, muscular; his abdomen lean, ripped. Deidre’s mouth went dry. She was hyper-focusing.

The board split. He looked up, wiping his brow on his forearm, and smiled at her. Deidre didn’t smile back. She’d forgotten how to breathe.

Today, he wore his hair bound back in a ponytail, revealing the chiseled perfection of his face. Broad cheekbones, a strong nose, light, slate-gray eyes. His wasn’t a pretty face. It was too strong, too masculine, to be pretty. Except for his lips, which were full, sensual. She stared at his mouth. Kissable.

Swoon.

She set the tray down.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

For me, playing is the best -- playing outdoors in nature or in my garden, experimenting in the kitchen, spending time with those I love. I also enjoy disappearing into a good book, attempting crafts, learning, writing, exploring, discovering. I especially like to mix it up and have yet to perfect any of it; and I've come to realize that perfection's not the point. It's all wonderfully fun. That's the point! I prefer authentic and natural, be it food, lifestyle, people. I passionately enjoy both history and science, and certainly sociology to a degree, and I am most truly a romantic. My husband and I have been married for over forty years. We reside near Houston, Texas, surrounded by loved ones. We have a blast with our little grandchildren and thank God for this wonderful life.

My Review - 4 of 5 stars -

An interesting story. Time travel in both directions was unusual. Deirdre and Lachlann were destined to be together. I liked how they tried to find things in the past as well as the way the story ended, a very different way to end. I am curious for the next book to carry on with this event. Deirdre had been through a lot but was strong enough on her own. I enjoyed her because of her strength. Lachlann was a loyal friend and a great support for Deirdre.
