Love Beyond Compare by Bethany Claire

Love Beyond Compare by Bethany Claire

Love is the most powerful kind of magic.

Baodan McMillan values many things in life: friendship, loyalty, kindness, but certainly not love. After the tragic death of his wife many years ago, he hardened himself to the idea of giving his heart to another. There is but one lass who can thaw his chilly heart, a lass he's never met nor knows of, a lass whose birth won't occur until centuries after his death...

Mitsy Fredrickson is in serious need of a distraction. With the ink still drying on her divorce papers, she flies to Scotland determined to forget about her own problems by helping her best friend re-enter reality. She knows Bri's claims that she is able to travel back in time and is currently living in the year 1647 are a lie but, instead of locating her friend, Mitsy falls prey to the same magic and is quickly forced to believe the impossible. Modern and sassy, Mitsy finds few who know how to take her fiery personality in the seventeenth century, but she finds her match in Baodan, laird of McMillan Castle. He is her opposite in every way, yet she feels balanced in his presence. The more time she spends with him, the harder she falls. She suspects he feels the same way, but something is holding him back--a dark secret from his past that even Baodan doesn't fully understand. Mitsy works to uncover what is hidden in the hopes that with resolution Baodan will be free to love her. But the truth is darker than she expects, and it threatens to destroy them both.

As if she were delivering life-saving knowledge, she told fairytales. As she grew older, she began to write her own stories, but she hid them away and went off to college, sure that following a traditional career route would be best for her. After four years and around six big changes, she understood the stories were no longer going to be buried away. She was six months away from graduating with a degree in Elementary Education, and she was becoming increasingly unhappy with each passing day that drew her closer to a career she didn't want. She finally understood that the one career that would make her happy was writing. Thus, in the middle of a summer education class, she got up and headed to the Registrar's office, where she immediately withdrew from the university.

She has since dedicated herself to full-time writing and is pursuing her aspirations. Bethany is the author of the Morna's Legacy Series of Scottish time-travel romance novels, which includes Love Beyond Hope, Love Beyond Reason, and her debut novel, Love Beyond Time. She and her two faithful and perfect dogs live in the Texas Panhandle. Visit Bethany's website at www.bethanyclaire.com to learn more about her.
