A Dark Slip of Time

Medieval Studies scholar Allie Sutherland knows more about 13th century death than 21st century dating. The struggling single mother strives to finish her thesis and start teaching at the university. Divorce has left her turning her back on love, questioning its very existence until the day she crosses paths with a stranger who asks whether she remembers him. The chemistry is breathtaking, but she has no memory of this man. With a touch of his hand, Callum Brodie pulls Allie back through time to one long night in the year 1296 where a feast is going on and their lovemaking has been interrupted. For in the Medieval Borderlands between England and Scotland, they are celebrating the Feast of All Hallows, the one night of the year when the veil between worlds grows thinner.Despite a fierce love, Allie and Callum struggle against all-too-human flaws and frailties and against the darkness that life throws at us all...and lose. They are thrown together again in the seafaring New World of 1750s Nova Scotia. But whether through treachery in the borderlands or marauding in the New World, life continues to tear them apart. Will their love prove to be a stronger force than any evil thing life may throw at them, or will it disappear into a dark slip of time? Find out in this sweeping tale of love and adventure across the centuries.A Dark Slip of Time is a hauntingly beautiful historical romance that feels like a violent collision between the centuries. Moving with a fast, riveting pace, the story delivers authentic action-from bloody raids to high-stakes sea battles. But Allie and Callum are the real heart of the book; their bond isn't just about chemistry, it's about bearing the burden of carrying memories that haven't happened yet. Watching Allie find her voice in a patriarchal world makes this as much a story of identity and reincarnation as it is about time travel. Kardash avoids using generic fantasy tropes. Rather, she uses sensory details that make every shift in time feel like a physical change in the air. It's a must-read for fans of strong, capable heroines fighting for their independence across every era. 5 Stars! Tanya Kays for Reader's Favorite
