Scotland forever!

I didn’t care for the narrator at first because I thought he should be Scottish but he did a decent job with the Scottish accents, even Beths, a woman. I knew the story of Glencoe quite well and have been there and so this book really appealed to me. I love the time travel but most of all I love the two main characters Nick and Beth. The fairy business was not my favorite part but they had to explain the time travel somehow. I would recommend this book to those interested in Scottish history, time travel, or a sweet romance.

Wonderfully written

Loved everything about this book. So glad I gave it a try. The title wasn’t the most eye catching... but I love Scottish history and wanted to see what it was about. So worth the listen.

Great story!

I enjoyed this book. Kept me interested the whole time. Finished in 2 days. Good story, wasn't slow, had some humor, made me smile. I liked the ending. I seen some complaints about the narrator in the reviews, but I didn't think he was bad. I know if I would've read this book I would have made plenty of mistakes with the language, and since I don't know the language, I didn't notice his mistakes. I thought it was very enjoyable. Definitely recommend. Language, and some graphic sex warning.

Easy read

Easy and enjoyable read....Loved it! It is hard to imagine existing in the past but to go to the future well, I think that would be ever more difficult. Nice read!

the accent lacked

the man's scottish accent sounded more like a bad norwegoan accent. reminded me of the store keeper in frozen!

Glad it was free

I ended up enjoying thjs story more than I thought I would. The tale itself was kind of tedious, but the thing that really kept me from rating it better was the narrator. His reading style is pedantic, and his “Scottish” accent varied from basic bad pronunciation of Scottish terms, such as putting them emphasis on the wrong syllable or words like “cannae” and “Dougal”, to sounding Norwegian rather than Scottish. Some of that is down to the director, too. Although the historic aspects are accurate in a general sense, I found it hard to believe the female lead’s easy acceptance of the situation she finds herself in (I don’t want to give too much away), and the author left some things unresolved that I would have liked to see wrapped up (the male lead’s mother). Overall, I found myself just wanting to be finished with the story so I could move on to the next.

Good book

I loved it. reminds me a little of a short Outlander but a little more modern. easy listening.
