Love Beyond Time Reviews
-
I would have totally given this book a 5-star rating if it weren't for the abrupt ending!! It was a fantastic read and I really enjoyed learning about the civil war. The main characters were well developed and kept me interested to see what would happen next. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone, but I felt that the ending was too abrupt. It went from the end of one crucial and nail-biting scene to the epilogue. I just wanted more to the story than a few sentences summarizing how everything happened at the end. Still a great book, and I am looking forward to the next in the series!!

Although I have a rather large stack of library books (32) to read, I kept hearing Tyler and Amber calling to me and I decided to skip the library books and go for a familiar favorite. This is the kind of book that sucks you in right from the start. Under normal circumstances Amber and Tyler would probably never meet. They are both workaholics and it takes a little time travel for them to finally get together. I like the struggles Amber has to go through as a doctor. I can only imagine how awful it would be to be thrown into the horrible medical conditions of the Civil War; it would probably drive me crazy. Amber handles it well and does the best she can to save and teach those around her. Tyler is a natural leader, the troops are drawn to him and he commands their respect. Although Tyler has had a hard past this experience is able to help him get closure and ultimately peace. I like the relationship between Amber and Tyler; it was fun to glimpse a part of their story. Great book, well researched and very entertaining.

This is the first book in a set that can be read separately but I like to read things in order. I really like this, it's one of my favorite I return to when I just need a sweet love story.
-
I just ordered this one and it came in today. I'm over a third of the way through already. Good read so far!

I can't believe how fast this one was to read. It isn't too long, but it was a good book! I just love time-travel books, especially those that don't get to technical or specific about all the ramifications of the time travel. I can't help but be surprised about the quality and quantity of LDS fiction these days. I knew things had changed from when I was a teenager when I stumbled upon Betsy Brannon Green. Nancy Campbell Allen is another great LDS author. I've already ordered the next book along these lines and I look forward to getting it delivered. -
It was okay. Most of the books I’ve been reading lately have spent much more time fleshing out the characters. I felt that, while the main characters referred to why they were falling for each other in their thoughts, it wasn’t really backed up by the scenes that were developed. It all wrapped up way too easily in the end. And, one of my biggest pet peeves... the author left out what should have been the concluding scene of the book, and just jumped ahead in time to show that everything was now just hunky-dory.
-
A fun book to curl up on the sofa and read, the ending is predictable and a little cheesy but still good!
-
This was a fun quick read. I like how the author didn't try to explain any science or more explanation about the time travel, it was just, it happened and lets move on. It really wasn't that deep of book anyway. It dabbled a little in historical facts, but compared to the whole civil war, really not much. I enjoyed the budding romance amidst tragedy. It's always interesting to learn more a little bit more about the civil war. I liked the characters.
-
I really enjoyed this book. The only thing I struggled with is a few of the things in the book didn't make sense. Time travel books can be hard to be plausible but other than the one item it was well written.
-
I am not usually a fan of time travel books but I will admit that Nancy was able to weave a sweet story that included many surprises at the end where she very neatly wrapped everything together in a heart-warming and well done love story that is to be appreciated!
-
This was a great read even though the core of the story (love in different times) is one that is seen often enough.
-
Pretty good LDS romance novel. I like a little time travel mixed in.
-
Really like this author. I really like this story and the two main characters. Auther did a good job weaving the story together. Loved her gospel touches, without going overboard.
-
I loved it!!! The adventure mixed with falling in love in such harsh times was breathtaking. I loved the fact that Tyler was so protective made me like him even more. And the ending, loved it!
-
Everything in this book seemed forced. The plot line, the love story, the ending. Written well enough that I plodded my way through it but merely for the sake of finishing it and not much else.
-
I actually read this years ago. It’s a little cheesy but I loved it. Fun time travel book.
-
it was a really good book I'm glad i read it
-
An fun and unbelievable journey through time.
-
uggg- LDS Romance.
" They clasped hands under the table and she felt the subtle ridge of his garment line with her finger". -
I kept having to remind myself this was written and takes place in 1999. But I loved it!
-
A little cheesy, but I suppose most romances are
-
time travel book.
clean romance.
Amber and Tyler both get a strange injury and find themselves transported back in time to the civil war. while back in time they try to stay together so they can protect each other. they both meet ancestors of course. She is a Doctor manages to save a few peoples lives by just cleaning better. -
Easy to read, fluff book. Interesting story with a good clean romance mixed in.

Took a QUICK break from my reread of the Harry Potter series to squeeze this in before Christmas. I wish it was longer. I don't know what the deal is with LDS novels always being under 200 pages. "Real" novels are 300 pages, people. Get with the program, Covenant Communications! Short books like this could be flushed out with much-needed character development and historical details and be TRULY AMAZING!!!!! LDS authors will never rise to their full potential if you don't push them to grow by about 100 non-fluff pages!!!!

Read the whole thing today. Yay for nap time! I agree with myself below that I would have loved another chapter before the epilogue to flush out the ending. I really really like this book, which is why I keep reading it over and over again!

LOVE this book!!! Adorable! I wish the ending was flushed out a little more (come on, Nancy! It's under 200 pages!!), but I still love it!

This remains my favorite of the series. I just can't get over the Mormon/time-travel combination! Awesome! Plus, I just LOVE Amber and Tyler... I love how Amber isn't just cookie-cutter Molly Mormon... She's 25 and not married (!!! shock!), has had to do some repenting in the past (realistic!), and has a caffeinated soda addiction (heehee). Fab. And Tyler has some serious father issues, and for a REALLY good reason. I wanted to kill his dad. Except that would have been too good for him. I believe there will be a special place for people who abuse their families... Anyway, realistic characters with realistic issues, a cool plot, and a lovely love story... You can't go wrong with that!

So cute! I remember reading this when I was younger, but I was mixing it with another book I must have read, because the cheesy lines I remember reading were NOT in this book... must have been a different one...
But I really thought this book was great. The characters were interesting and believable, and it was just a cute, clean LDS romance.. :)
