Publisher's summary

All she needs is someone to prove her wrong.

Laurel's life bears no resemblance to the love stories she writes. While handsome heroes are easy to imagine, they're much more difficult to find. Years of bad dates with creepy men have left her feeling cynical toward all things related to love. When she and her best friend find themselves caught up in Morna's meddling magic and are transported to 17th-century Scotland, Laurel meets a man who threatens to change her attitude toward matters of the heart.

After two years away, Raudrich returns to his home on The Isle of Eight Lairds to resume the duty he's pledged his life to. When he arrives, he finds an out-of-time lassie asleep in his bed. The woman intrigues him, and it doesn't take long before she captures his heart. But something inside causes her to resist her feelings. If only he could help her love herself, perhaps she would have room in her heart to love him in return.

As their feelings grow, so does the strength of an evil held captive beneath the castle - an evil that will do anything to escape. Will Laurel open herself up to the possibility of love? If she does, can she find the power within herself to outwit the evil she's destined to face?

I couldn't stop listening!

What did you love best about Love Beyond Words: A Scottish Time Travel Romance?

What I loved best about Love Beyond Words was that it surprisingly took the Morna's Legacy Series in a brand new direction. I loved how it took two new characters who were introduced in Love Beyond Reach and transported them to the 17th century to a new part of Scotland with many new characters.




What did you like best about this story?

I loved how the new story had elements of both Morna's magic that we're familiar with and combined it with magic from new sources including some super natural characters.

What about Lily Collingwood’s performance did you like?

Lily Collingwood took an eBook that I had already read and fallen in love with to new heights! Right from the beginning- the way she articulated the conversations between the two sisters was so real. It reminded me of wonderful talks I've had with my own sisters.

Bethany Claire had introduced several new characters in this book. Lily Collingwood's performance of the many new male voices as well as the voices of the two new female supernatural characters was so well done and so believable.

This book was like ear candy. It was very tastefully done. I highly recommend the audible version of Love Beyond Words.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There was a moment that really moved me that I won't go into detail about because I don't like spoilers, but witnessing the lengths a character went through to save the man she loved...where she had to call upon all of her wit and acting skills was outstanding.

Any additional comments?

This was truly a magical love story...love between two sisters, love between good friends, learning how to love one's self and an incredible happily ever after romance. Buy this audio book!

New Magic, New Lairds!

What a story!!! This is such a fresh take on the series. With all of the new characters and a few from previous books; this love story has wonderfully new magic and the same meddling witch we all wish could meddle in our own lives.

Great job!

Truly enjoyed the audible version. I had read the book but hearing it on audible was such a joy. Lily gave the characters new life. This book has several male characters and Lily did an awesome job with the changes in voice to match the character. The story was great and of course a HEA. Anyone who enjoys romance and time travel will love this audible version.

Silly story; bad narrator!

So, I was missing the Outlander series...just stellar....and got caught up for a time listening to time-travel, Scottish romances, and got caught up in this silly series of stories that I'm happy to put behind me now!!! By Book 4 or 5 or 6....the moral of the stories is: find a castle, travel back in time where there plenty of tall, handsome, strapping huge Scottish men from the 18th century waiting to bed and wed a modern-age woman, because they just love the modern-day woman's sassiness...yeah, that would've gone over really well.....anyway, then it's really no problem, because as the stories progress, why, the time travel portal is just a breeze to go thru and everyone just travels back and forth in time...and that meddling, predicting Morna just sends everyone what modern-day convenience they need at a whim!!! And, yes, I listened to all of them!!!! :) :) :)

Fell asleep

Fell asleep a few times trying to read. Narrator is quite good. But unfortunately could not revive this story. Huge re-direction from the usually expected Scottish time-travel for this author. Generally love Ms Claire's writings. But not this book :-(

Another wonderful installment in the series

I enjoyed this story about Laurel and Marcus being sent back in time to the Isle of 8 Lairds in order to help save the isle. Laurel meets Raudrich and they need to try to save the magic that exists there from the evil witch. Marcus ends up being one of the 8 Lairds finding his magic, too. I hope Marcus gets his story soon. Even though some of the other characters from previous books appear, this can be read/listened to as a standalone book but all the previous books are worth great, too. Bethany Claire write so wonderfully about time travel that it makes it seem real. Lily Collingwood does a fantastic job of narrating the audio version with her different voices and accents. I can't wait for the next one

Loved this one so much!

What did I enjoy the most about this book? Everything! I got to tell you that Laurel's dating woes reminded me of my own that I had plenty of laugh out moments... I also enjoyed the mysticism of the 8 Druids. That is actually one of my interests(mystics and stuff that is) With Raudrich coming into Laurel's life. And with Marcus learning the full extent of his mission and of course, Morna who is always up to her old tricks. This made for an entertaining and special read for me. I enjoyed Love Beyond Words immensely!

Love Beyond Words

I love how us modern day women. Travel back in time and keep the men inline. Bethany knows how to bring you into the story and make you feel apart of it. Her time travel books are very well written. I just love all her books. Thank you Bethany for your books.

First audiobook!!

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

I really wanted to try an audiobook, and I was grateful for the chance to listen to this one, however, I found the female American voice to be very grating and irritating. I really wished for a male voice, preferably Scottish or British at least. Reading the book was great, listening to this version, I couldn't follow the story. Perhaps the American audience is bigger, but a version that will appeal to other countries would be greatly appreciated.

What did you like best about this story?

The magic and the mystery and I love Morna!

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Lily Collingwood?

Anyone! A male preferably. Men's voices are much more pleasant to listen to.

What character would you cut from Love Beyond Words: A Scottish Time Travel Romance?

None.... well, Lily Collingwood :/

Any additional comments?

Give me a version that has a male reader without an American accent, please!
