Source: Goddess Fish Promotions, Received from the author or publisher for review.She's made mistakes and paid the price, but Deidre Chisolm is no quitter. She'll never again be a fool for a man, not even her gorgeous new neighbor with his haunted eyes and strange accent. She'll be friendly, but nothing more.
Lachlann has to go back to fourteenth-century Scotland. He can't forsake his family, his son. But when a beautiful, kind, funny lady buys the house next door, he's never been so drawn to anyone in his life.
Would she believe his story? After years of struggling through nightmares, flashbacks, headaches, and illiteracy, dare he ask her to help him return?

Excerpt from Tremors Through Time
Lachlann sauntered across Deidre’s driveway just as she was locking her front door. She turned toward him, smiling. He froze. She was wearing a saffron-colored leine, or tunic, underneath a blue, fitted surcoat. He should have known! She was a woman from his own time. His heart and head began to pound as he stared at her.
“Lachlann?” Deidre’s voice reached him, soft and hesitant. “Don’t you like my costume?”
Costume. Of course, it was a costume. He struggled to regain his voice as his heart rate calmed. “It’s great,” he managed, giving himself a mental shake. Fool!
“Thank you,” she replied, her voice still uncertain. She looked at him inquiringly. “I surprised you, didn’t I? I’m sorry. I should’ve warned you. I like to wear something fairly authentic in case I run into some of my students.”
“You do look authentic.” He managed a wink. “Bonnie as well.”
She blushed. “You’ve probably seen lots of costumes like this in Scotland.”
“Not so many, and none in Texas.”
It was a wonder to him that he was still standing. Her costume, as she called it, was perfect. She might have fallen through time like himself. It was an even greater wonder that he had not yet carried her off to bed. He’d never wanted anyone as he wanted her.

My thoughts on Tremors Through Time
Tremors Through Time by Anastasia Abboud is a fresh voice in the Scottish Time-travel genre.
I fell in love with the protagonists, Lachlan and Deidre. While both are harboring deep secrets and damaged souls, together they begin to heal.
The opening pages of the story brought me to tears. The author’s writing style brought Lachlan’s anguish to life for me and Deidre’s chance to start over gave me hope.
There are bound to be comparisons to Gabaldon’s Outlander series. I understand that, but feel like this story will definitely hold its own. And please…let this be a series. There are many threads that I need to have sewn up to satisfy my curiosity.
The tale is immersive and the settings so well described, I felt like I lived every page. The connections between the past and present create a fascinating story. Gardening can truly connect a person to their roots.
If you love a well-told tale of time-travel, second chances, and accurate historical fiction, this is the book for you.
I received a copy of the book for the tour. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.
