Publisher's summary

She fell through time and into the arms of the 15th-century Highland laird she was fated to save. Will their love be a timeless treasure or an eternal curse?

Gwendolyn Reynolds' career path is secure...so why does she feel so restless? Haunted by recurring dreams, she breaks away on a soul-searching trip to coastal Scotland. But when a storm forces her off the road, she plunges into icy waters, only to resurface in the arms of a handsome Highlander.

Scotland, 1426. Fierce and feared, Laird Greylen MacGreggor has yet to meet his match. Eagerly awaiting the woman foretold in prophecy, he never expects her to be a 21st-century stunner with a feisty temper. But when he rescues her from the icy waters behind Seagrave Castle, his first touch confirms that Gwen is his destiny.

As sparks fly between the unlikely pair, they discover their passionate fate could be both powerful and deadly. Can Gwen and Greylen overcome centuries of differences to find true love?

If you like your time-travel romance filled with steadfast lovers, steamy nights, and a dash of riotous humor, get spell-bound by The Prophecy

COULDN'T STOP LISTENING!!!

This was wonderful, a true love story. Soul deep, and beautifully tender. If your ready for a love story in which the characters are there for each other from beginning to end LOOK NO FURTHER! My heart ached when I came to the end of the book and realized I wouldn't be in their world anymore.

Just pass this story

I had to push myself to listen to this book. Sorry to say it was awful. I've read a lot of time travel books but this was worse than anything I've heard. I kept trying to give it a chance but could not get into it. The storyline was boring and not believable. The narrator was just okay not really right for part. I had to laugh in the end where she was still able to use her phone. I kept thinking but it's the 1400s, or how she would run in shorts. Totally unacceptable at that time. I think author should do better research next time.

I listen to a lot of books rarely review

Very good book. It had all the parts you need for a good time travel romance and excellent banter with characters.

Great Book! Loved it!

If you love time travel romance this is the book for you! From start to finish this book was fantastic. Kim Sakwa has written this book very well and Marian Hussey is "AMAZING" at narrating. Marian Hussey can narrate the back of a cereal box and make it sound wonderful. All kidding aside, this was a great book, with a great storyline and I look forward to more of Kim Sakwa books!

Unbelievable!

I can’t believe I actually finished this book; but I kept waiting fir it to get better, it just didn’t... I got worse!! The story kept jumping around from “it has been 2 weeks” to “ in 4 days” since she arrived. A good editor would have caught these misdirections! And to still have an operating cell phone playing music for ‘hours’ 5 years later!?! Really?? Please save your money and time you will never get back!!

incredibly boaring

I was hopeful this book had promise and would get better. No such luck. It painfully dronded on. It's a poor imitation of outlander. Clearly the authors inspiration. I can't believe this travesty was published. What's worse, I bought it! Now save yourself buy a different book.

The Prophecy

This was a wonderful romance between a 21st century doctor and a 16th century Scottish laird who were destined to be together. I loved their relationship; she was feisty and he was passionately committed to her. I also enjoyed his family and friends. Marian Hussey’s performance was perfection!

Romance & Time Travel -My Two favorites!

I once spent the summer in Scottland--horseback riding through the midlands, the bogs and the highlands.
I loved every part of it! The Prophecy Brough right back in time! A great romance and a great novel! Can't wait for her next book!

What an escape!

This book kept me on my toes! I listen when driving to and from work, and I couldn’t wait to get into the car each day! You just fall in love with the characters. Kim Sakwa is an incredible writer. Highly recommend! I’d give it 10 stars if I could!

bit ho hum

Good narrator but as a history loving reader I found some things hard to accept. Potatoes did not appear in Scotland until the mid 1700s. I was disappointed the writer missed some historical details.

The story I found quite lacking. 80% was of the 2 main characters professing undying love and having sex. Skipped quite a bit trying find some grit in the story.
