Book Giveaway & Toni's Review of Eternity's Mark by Maeve Greyson ***3 Stars***

A sexy Scot. A mystical inheritance. What could go wrong?

Veterinarian Hannah MacPherson knows better than to believe in love at first - or any - sight. True, being swept away by Taggart de Gaelson to the vast Scottish castle she's mysteriously inherited is uber-romantic. The legacy is totally legitimate, and its messenger is big, broad-shouldered, and smokin' in more ways than one...

Too bad Taggart forgot to mention that Hannah's also a Guardian of magical dragons called the Draecna. And as Hannah's sworn otherworldly protector, Taggart is honor-bound not to lay a hand on her, no matter how close he gets...

But turning duty into pleasure is just too tempting. And for Hannah, mastering her powers and saving two worlds from evil will be way easier than showing one hardheaded warrior that breaking all the rules means they are eternally made for each other...

Excerpts

***************************

Nothing beats a brand new adventure and then add in dragons, count me in.  Action, alternate worlds, undying love, a secret legacy and the beauty of Scotland are all wrapped up in Eternity’s Mark. 

Hannah has no idea that she is the last of her kind and is content to live out the remaining of her life in her small town.  She has lost the love of her life and has no plans to move on, no matter what the town plans.  They believe that it is time for her to move on and have plotted against her to help find a new love.  She scoffs at their foolish tactics and squashes every trick they pull.  She was not prepared for the likes of Taggart though.

Taggart de Gaelson has searched high and low for Hannah and will do everything but kidnap her to bring her back to her rightful home, Taroc Na Mor.  After meeting the tiny woman and dealing with her, he is reevaluating his grand plan.  She is strong willed and stubborn, but he hasn’t lived as long as he has to let this little spitfire ruin his plans and the future of his people.  Let the battle of wills begin.

Eternity’s Mark has a totally new feel for me.  It had simplicity to it, yet the details of the world building were imaginative and striking.  The story was complex as a whole but while reading Eternity’s Mark I was never confused or lost.  Ms. Greyson has developed a fascinating new universe filled with fantastical creatures built around a beautiful and imaginative legend.

This is an extremely easy read.  While the romance had a strong presence in the story, the history of the Draecna is what caught my attention.  This is by no means an explicit sexual novel.  Ms. Greyson has written a sensual love story that captures your heart.  It is a very sweet touching tale.

I did find some of the conclusions in the story too quickly resolved with “aha” moments that had me scratching my head thinking “how in the world did they come up with that”.  The foundation of the story was strong, but it just missed something to bring it on up to the next level for me.  

Eternity’s Mark is a good story to read if you want something sweet and entertaining.  A very pleasant read, with sexy Scotsmen, an amazing alternate world and a break your heart love story.  Oh yeah and dragons too! 


Thanks for reading!! - Toni
