Love Beyond Time

2013

It began nearly four hundred years ago. The Conall clan and all their people were murdered in a surprise attack, their beloved castle and all evidence of who destroyed them burned to the ground with their bodies. In the centuries following, archaeologists searched through the ruins looking for any evidence of what or who had caused the untimely demise of such a powerful Scottish clan. All efforts were fruitless, until a spell put in place by an ancient Conall ancestor finally began to work its magic...Texas kindergarten teacher, Brielle Montgomery, finds comfort in the mundane routines of her life, but when her archaeologist mother asks her to accompany her on a dig in Scotland, she decides to step out of her comfort zone. Once in Scotland, they discover a secret spell room below the castle ruins, and Bri finds herself transported back in time and suddenly married to the castle's ill-fated Laird. Now, she must work to change the fate of his people, all while trying to find a way to return to her home and century. But with each passing day, Bri finds herself falling more deeply in love with her new husband. If she can find a spell to bring her home, will she use it? And if she stays, will it ultimately mean her own death as well?

Love Beyond Reason

2013

It all started with a spell. Arran Conall lives with the consequences of his foolishness daily, his mistakes guiding him into darkness. He had no way to know that his beloved would fall prey to the ancient magic that awaited Blaire on the day he’d sent her away to marry his brother. Now, the only woman to ever give pause to his philandering ways lives centuries ahead of him, out of reach while still holding on to his heart. Now, he must try to live a life without her and marries another to save the lass from a greedy suitor who only wants to lay title to her father’s territory. His love for Blaire haunts him. With every breath, he prays only one thing – that she will be able to feel his love for her across the chasms of time… Born in the seventeenth century, Blaire MacChristy lives each day trying to adjust to the challenges of modern-day life. Magic brought her here, but heartbreak keeps her from using the magic to travel back to her home. When visitors from her past arrive asking her to return to the life she’d known before, Blaire takes a chance on love. Once home, she is shocked to learn that the man she loves has married another. Will fate find a way to mend their broken hearts by bringing them together once again? Even if it does, will they be able to stop the darkness that is coming for them both?

Love Beyond Hope

2014

Love is the most powerful kind of magic. Baodan McMillan values many things in life: friendship, loyalty, kindness, but certainly not love. After the tragic death of his wife many years ago, he hardened himself to the idea of giving his heart to another. There is but one lass who can thaw his chilly heart, a lass he’s never met nor knows of, a lass whose birth won’t occur until centuries after his death… Mitsy Fredrickson is in serious need of a distraction. With the ink still drying on her divorce papers, she flies to Scotland determined to forget about her own problems by helping her best friend re-enter reality. She knows Bri’s claims that she is able to travel back in time and is currently living in the year 1647 are a lie but, instead of locating her friend, Mitsy falls prey to the same magic and is quickly forced to believe the impossible. Modern and sassy, Mitsy finds few who know how to take her fiery personality in the seventeenth century, but she finds her match in Baodan, laird of McMillan Castle. He is her opposite in every way, yet she feels balanced in his presence. The more time she spends with him, the harder she falls. She suspects he feels the same way, but something is holding him back—a dark secret from his past that even Baodan doesn’t fully understand. Mitsy works to uncover what is hidden in the hopes that with resolution Baodan will be free to love her. But the truth is darker than she expects, and it threatens to destroy them both.

In Due Time

2014

Everything happens in its time…For Jeffrey Oakes, life in the seventeenth century hasn’t been the thrilling change of pace he hoped it would be. The lack of power tools, better hygiene, and cold beer has him yearning for the luxuries of his modern-day life. It might all be bearable if he had someone to maneuver the cultural differences and minimal conveniences with—someone with whom he could make a life. But among the Scottish countryside, with women so different from himself, he knows his chances of finding such a woman are small. If only Morna could work her magic for him like she has done for so many others… Kathleen Carter’s life is changing. With enough money now saved to fulfill her dream of restoring the castle she inherited, her job as housemaid is coming to an end. All she wants now is for moving day to arrive so that she can get to Scotland. She knows she’ll have no time for much of a personal life for the next few years, but that’s okay—the ruined castle will take all of the love and attention she has to give. Or so she thinks… Little does she know that a move isn’t the only big change life has in store for her and that perhaps her dreams might include more than devoting her life to a big, empty castle.

Love Beyond Belief

2015

USA TODAY Bestselling Author Bethany Claire continues her Morna's Legacy Series beautifully with Love Beyond Belief The best surprises are the ones you never see coming. All Sydney Pearce needs is some time away from the stress and chaos of running her own restaurant. Maybe then she’ll be able to remember why it was such a dream come true to open the place. When she wins a trip to Scotland, she gets her wish and happily leaves the restaurant in the hands of her general manager as she takes off for the trip of a lifetime. Once there, the time away is better than she could have dreamed. The seaside castle accommodations are spectacular, but even more intriguing is the castle’s other guest—a man so alluring and mysterious that Sydney makes it her mission to learn the truth about the man who seems to vanish every morning only to return weary and covered in dirt every evening. Callum MacChristy doesn’t need any distractions. He has enough on his hands with the daily travels back and forth through time as he works and waits for his home to be restored. His trips each night are meant to provide him a soft bed and a warm shower, not the conversation of a lass who seems intent on finding out his secret. She’s intrusive, blunt, and utterly frustrating. Why then does he seem to find himself more enchanted by the raven-haired beauty with each passing day? As Sydney’s feelings grow, she finds herself less eager to uncover the truth about the new man in her life, for with each new clue she uncovers, her beliefs about the world start to quake beneath her. Will Sydney accept the astonishing truth once it is revealed, or will she deny the unbelievable reality of the man she’s come to love, returning to her restaurant as if all that happened was nothing more than the vacation she expected?
