About this listen

An Amazon Charts, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post bestseller.

In an unforgettable love story, a woman’s impossible journey through the ages could change everything....

Anne Gallagher grew up enchanted by her grandfather’s stories of Ireland. Heartbroken at his death, she travels to his childhood home to spread his ashes. There, overcome with memories of the man she adored and consumed by a history she never knew, she is pulled into another time.

The Ireland of 1921, teetering on the edge of war, is a dangerous place in which to awaken. But there Anne finds herself, hurt, disoriented, and under the care of Dr. Thomas Smith, guardian to a young boy who is oddly familiar. Mistaken for the boy’s long-missing mother, Anne adopts her identity, convinced the woman’s disappearance is connected to her own.

As tensions rise, Thomas joins the struggle for Ireland’s independence and Anne is drawn into the conflict beside him. Caught between history and her heart, she must decide whether she’s willing to let go of the life she knew for a love she never thought she’d find. But in the end, is the choice actually hers to make?

Wow! I was completely enthralled by this story that I finished the book in just 2 sittings. It is a beautifully written romance filled with intrigue and historically relevant facts. All the mystery and twists are wonderfully weaved together throughout the novel and the ending makes you want to experience it all again! I've recommended it to all my friends.

Beautifully written and utterly compelling!

I sometimes find audio books are spoiled by their narration, not so in this case. Saskia Maarleveld, Will Damron do a really good job, they made the story come to life.
I read quite a lot and when story lines get boring I find myself fast forwarding to get to an interesting bit. I didn't do that once with this book. It was so well written you could actually believe the characters are real historical figures. Listening to the history of Ireland and the war and people involved was very interesting.
Without giving any spoilers, I didn't expect the ending, and I am normally very good at guessing how books will end. I will be keeping my eyes open for further books from Amy Harmon.

Excellent
