Love Through Time by Lucy Felthouse

16. November, 2011 Romance No comments

I share Lucy’s love of the Grand Stately Manor and their decadent libraries and have found myself captivated by many over the years, so many dusty tomes, so much history. Soft sumptuous chairs to snuggle down into with a favourite book, mmmm… heaven. Lucy gives her tale a rich, detailed feel and you are drawn in right from the start.

I do love how Lucy brings such life to her characters you can easily picture the sprightly Mrs. Thompson running the house with an almost military precision and order and it’s those little details that make any Lucy Felthouse tale a joy to read. Little touches like the smile when relaying the history of the place give the characters an extra dimension and are one of the reasons I hold Lucy Felthouse in such high regard.

I really connected with Emily and her love of her work, her passionate and methodical nature really shone through. Her kind, tender ways and runaway mind really made the reading of this tale a joy. I giggled aloud at her berating a Photograph for interrupting her, and it’s those little touches that make for such a fun tale. Her attraction to George is sweet and endearing but they say it’s the quiet ones you need to watch out for and she certainly proves that.

George is another well written character, kind and caring with the strong chiselled good looks that can turn a girls knees to jelly he could so easily have been one dimensional but Lucy gave him real depth and a dimple. His interest in the mystery of the Manor helped drive the story on and gave it a realism that can so easily be lacking in a story of this kind.

William the Ghost was a nice side story and was a sweet way of bringing the two characters closer together, Emily helping him find his way and giving him the happiness he so craved was a lovely touch and you can only hope that Emily and George will experience a love so lasting.

Love through Time was a slow burn but this tale cackles with sexual energy throughout and you cannot help but feel for the great characters, the scene setting is fantastic and the passion will have you squirming this is one I’m sure I’ll be re-reading time and time again.

One for the bookish babes who are tigers in the sack (and those men who adore them)
