Dreamspell

Left me in a Dreamspell

Not sure how I missed this one. It's been in my library for a while but never listened to it. Wow, I'm glad I found it.

Tamara Leigh has a gift of writing stories that come alive. Vivid characters and situations seem to paint pictures in your mind that seem real. Mary Sarah Agliotta has such a unique voice that adds dimension to the story. A duo that is difficult to duplicate.

This book has time travel, medieval adventures, touching moments and a clean romance. It's definitely worth the listen. 🌼

Oh this is a GOOD one!

What did you like best about this story?

I like the way dreams take Kennedy into the past. This is a well written story.

The way Mac dies in our time and ends up in the past. I love Kennedy's mom - what a wonderful person. I like the way each time Kennedy leaves the past she changes history.

I cried so hard at the end. It was a real tear jerker with a happy ending. I have listened to this story more than once.....I cry like a baby each time at the end. Kennedy's mom is awesome.

Have you listened to any of Mary Sarah Agliotta’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I love the way Mary portrays Kennedy's mom. The rest of the characters have great accents. Nice job!

wonderful!

after reading the description this sounded a lot like a Knight in Shining Armor by June Devereaux which my grandmother and myself LOVE! So I thought I'd give this a try and it's like a Knight in Shining Armor meets the movie Timeline, absolutely wonderful! I love it! now I'm going to force my grandmother to read or listen to it. if you like the book or movie I mentioned above you'll like this!

IT CAST IT'S MAGICAL SPELL OVER ME

I love fantasy and romance but it took me a little while to get into this story however, once I did I was totally hooked....

Hooked on the well-written, imaginative and original plot that seamlessly transports you backwards and forwards between the 21st and 14th Centuries with ease. Hooked at the fast-paced action and dialogue which held witty gems and funny scenes. Hooked at the emotions it brought out in me as a dying Nedy is given another chance at life in the arms of her Knight in the ever changing past. Hooked with Fulke, a Hero that wasn't handsome or perfect but rather he was a Knight that was scarred both inside and out but he was honourable, morally good, loyal, loving and he had character which made him just perfect.

And finally, I was hooked with the romance that slowly developed between two people that started off as enemies but eventually, through many disasters, grew into one of trust and a deep love and respect for each other that encompassed 600 years. One that led to an Epilogue that perfectly concluded their love story and ended a book that was packed full of questions, dilemmas, twists, action, heartbreak, tension, great characters, a mysterious villain, tragedy and a bitter-sweet romance.

Worth a credit? It played out in my mind like a film and what a great film it would be.... so YES it's creditworthy. Narration was good. There was touching, tender scenes with kissing but absolutely no sex.

My Favorite

I have read (and listened) to almost all of Tamara Leigh's books. This is my favorite. The story is so touching it will make you cry... as long as you don't get caught up in the scientific possibility of time travel. Wonderful narration as well. Love, love, love it!

enjoyed the story

Enjoyed this story very much. Hated to put it down. Know you will feel the same if you start listening to it. This one is a keeper.

Wow. Definitely Above Average.

It's easy to get cliche in romance and time travel novels, but this is a genuinely good book. It didn't fall into the repetitive themes many romance novels have, and it handled the time travel element with class. And the ending is pretty great.

I will say, though, that the narrator isn't great at deviating from a detached British tone. Moments of humor sounded forced. I also think several characters were supposed to have American accents, and the narrator didn't quite get that right. But to me, this didn't detract from the book.
