Beneath the Shadow of Time by Vera Bell was such a captivating read. I’ve always been fascinated by stories involving past lives, and this book weaves that theme beautifully through visions experienced by both Siena and Ryan. Watching how their memories from the past intertwine with their present lives made for a truly compelling story.

As an Irish reader, I especially enjoyed the inclusion of Gaeilge in the narrative. It added a rich cultural depth and made the Irish setting feel authentic and vibrant, which really enhanced my connection to the story.

Though I haven’t read the earlier books in the series, this one stood perfectly well on its own. It was easy to follow and deeply engaging. I’m definitely looking forward to going back and reading the first two books. This novel is a wonderful blend of mystery, romance, and Irish magic.

This captivating novel will resonate with readers who are drawn to emotionally rich, dual-timeline romances. The narrative weaves together historical intrigue and modern suspense, exploring the fascinating concept of reincarnation and the enduring power of love across lifetimes. With its evocative settings, compelling characters, and a plot that seamlessly intertwines past and present, this book promises an unforgettable reading experience for those who enjoy stories that delve into the mysteries of the heart and the echoes of history.

This was such an interesting story. I love books that have past lives. This past life is brought into the future by visions for both characters. I loved seeing how Siena got the visions and found truth in them with aspects of her and Ryan's life now. I did not read the books previously published from this series but I absolutely loved this book and had no trouble with understanding and enjoying this book. I definitely plan to read the first two in this series.
