Okay I admit it, I am crazy for historical romance books. I will drop everything to read historical romance. I have wondered why and the only reason I come up with is because it was a simpler time. Well this book is not really a historical romance, but it does has the simpler times with a historical gentleman.

I guess readers could say that this book has a twist. The twist is time-travel with a love that has lasted centuries. I know you are porbably wondering what I thought about this book. Well, IT WAS AMAZING! There I said it. I loved the flow with the characters.

One wanting to believe but skeptical, the other believing. One always questioning the other, one always trying to reassure the other. One that keeps saying it is not possible, while the other believes everything is possible.

Yes, this was an amazing book. I sit down to read it and before I knew anything else I was at the end of the book. I got lost between the pages.

Thanks for an amazing read Bess

The bunnies and I give this book 5 carrots. ( )

Free-spirited Molly Hamilton was traveling with her sister Sara, visiting old cemeteries in Iowa on a hunt for their ancestors. While Sara dutifully read tombstones during the search, Molly found herself on top of a small hill, and captivated by the wind, held her arms out as if she could fly, when she heard a man’s voice call her name. Shaken, she caught up with Sara, but as the two women headed to their motel for the evening, Molly was determined to return to the cemetery the next morning in hopes of discovering who had called her.

Darius Ferguson was thrilled at finally seeing his Molly again, standing on top of the hill as she had when she was alive. He settled down on the bench under the oak tree to wait to see if she would return; after all, he had been waiting since 1880, so a few more hours hardly mattered to him.

I love time travel. The thought of love strong enough to transcend time and space just fascinates me, and Molly and Darius had one of those wonderful romances, cut too short by Molly’s untimely death. Molly’s courage in completely changing her life, leaving Seattle and settling in Lilium, Iowa, based on her feelings, was fascinating. I appreciated that the house she found and fell in love with was the one Darius had built for her. This was a wonderful book, full of emotion, and I enjoyed it very much.

I have to say that I really enjoyed this book and will read it again. I love allot of the old classic black and white movies and one of my favorites is ‘The Ghost and Mrs. Muir’. This story by Ms. McBride reminded me of that movie. I know want it to come on AMC or TBS so that I can once again enjoy that ageless classic.

On an adventure to find family history Molly Hamilton and her sister Sara head out for Genealogical research to the Midwest. Molly finds a Victorian Home in the middle of a cornfield in Iowa. Sound familiar. Not sure why but she is drawn to this house and decides to impulse buy. Most of us would impulse by with clothes or another pair of shoes that we don’t need. But not Molly she wants this house.

In comes Darius Ferguson the original owner of the house. Now remember this is a 100 year old house. He shouldn’t be around but yet he is. Baffled how this handsome ghost shows up and Molly knows that she has always loved him.

Darius, an attorney in his previous life, deals with facts. Here he is transported to modern day Iowa and facing Molly who happens to look an awful lot like his dead fiancé. He just doesn’t have an explanation as to how he came from the 1880’s to the present. But there is a reason and he will find out. He thinks that maybe he is stuck in purgatory.

Molly thinks that Darius is simply crazy although she is drawn to him in a very strong way.

It starts in the graveyard, Molly having been there is drawn back and there she runs into Darius.

Having found my soul mate, I am a sucker for the kind of story that takes you on a journey into the depths and magic of what love can really be.

Who wouldn’t want someone that fights their way across time just to be with that special someone that will share their life forever? The type of love that truly stands the tests of time.

Ghost or real who cares?

The way Ms. McBride describes both eras has you feeling as if you actually were there in both times and that you may have done some time traveling yourself. The description of the home made me want to go find that cornfield so that I might be able to buy that home for myself.

A beautiful love story that takes us from one era to another… ( )
