Exquisite time travel romance!
As always, author Mariah Stone has written the most exquisite time-travel romance. Out of the five titles in this series, THE TREE OF TIME is my favorite. As an avid reader, I love it when a story so captures my imagination that I get lost in the time and events. Thanks to Mariah Stone’s masterful writing, character development, and descriptive prose, I lost myself – falling into the love affair between the Viking warrior, Einar, and his CEO woman from the future, Holly. Their chemistry was electric, explosive, and so encompassing that even the secondary characters were swept up in the marvel of their unconditional love. In fact, their love was iron-strong so quickly, each of them was willing to sacrifice for the good of the other. Good thing they came to their senses before their time ran out! THE TREE OF TIME is epically compelling, the story is complex, and is the PERFECT romance read. In fact, you need to get your copy of THE TREE OF TIME today! I voluntarily read an early copy of THE TREE OF TIME and this is my VOLUNTARY and HONEST 5+STAR review. Happy pages!
Love, fear and danger in the Orkneys
4.5 stars
Author Mariah Stone has written another moving Viking time travel romance, this one set on the wind-swept Orkney Islands just north of Scotland. The writing is good and moved the story along at a good pace through both action and emotion-packed scenes until the arduous climax.
Einar, the Viking leader who saved modern executive/time traveller Holly from a marauding nightmare of an outlaw, breaks the harsh Viking warrior stereotype. He is swept up in grief for a beloved, dead wife and child and unwilling to make another woman suffer the dangers and agony of childbirth. He also has difficulty connecting with his young, motherless daughter. This is the type of hero I love, one whose stiffness is not macho and who knows how to treasure a woman and value her future and comfort even to the detriment of his own peace and happiness.
I would characterize the intimacy as mild to medium heat. The romance of emotion that bridges centuries and cultural differences is what draws me to time travel romance and it’s all here.

A Love Thru Time
Time travel stories are my favorite and this one did not disappoint.
This book had all of the elements to make a great story. The characters were well round so that their description are formed in the mind while reading., the plot was busy and the flow was harmonious with just enough conflict to keep it interesting.
Enjoyed reading this book.
Ms. Stone is a new author for me and I will definitely keep her name on my reading rooster for the future.

OMG. I loved this book. 20th century woman travels back in time to the 9th century. The relationship between the H and h is so sweet. They both are hurting in their own ways and as they get to know each other and fall in love they are able to ease the hurt that they both carry. Some well written sex. Just loved this book. Highly recommend it.
I have absolutely loved this whole series and this final book was another excellent read! This one had my emotions tied up in knots, I felt all the heartache, love, passion, fear, etc., that the characters felt, that’s how well written this story is.
Holly, living in 2019, suddenly finds herself in the year 880 AD and meets Einar, a Viking warrior who saves her from certain death. There’s instant attraction but both have emotional problems that they need to get through. She has always wanted children but he refuses to let another woman die in childbirth like what happened to his wife so when she finds herself pregnant, he turns her away and she returns back to her time. Their love for each other reaches across time and decisions need to be made, fear needs to be overcome, before they can finally reach their HEA. I loved the ending as well…with the tree….such a beautiful ending.
The only bad thing I can say about this book is that it’s the last one of the series….I want more!!!! lol
I was given an ARC of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
I loved this time traveler story that involves a modern day woman, Holly and a ninth century Viking, Einar. The story is well written, entertaining and holds your interest. Even though Holly is a corporate executive she feels incomplete and while in Scotland trying to find her family history, she is taken back in time where she meets Einar who will become the love of her life. There is a lot more going on in the story and part of it involves danger but this only enhances the story. This is a great addition to the time traveler series and I would highly recommend it, as I feel sure you will appreciate the story as much as I do.
What a wonderful way to end the series. This is a really well-developed storyline with action, humour, anger, despair and romance, which gripped me from the very beginning. I enjoyed watching as Einar and Holly developed their relationship and was absolutely pleased with the final chapters. This was a hard book to put down. You don’t want to miss this one.

Truly enjoyed reading this story. Einar is a wounded widower and father, Holly is a smart, powerful executive who has always believed she was not enough. Einar’s daughter is a lonely little girl without a mother and a father with no idea how to show her affection. Together they become a family but is it enough? He is so afraid of losing her that he pushes her away. There is much more to this story, a really evil bad guy, a storyteller and norn with more than a little mischief in them and other characters that round out the story. Sorry to see this series come to a close. Can’t wait to read the next by Mariah Stone.
Delightful conclusion to this timetravel series. I only wish there were more. This tale resonates with the angst of not being good enough meets a heart wrenching fear of loss. Love is a risk, being accepted and trusting in the time you have together. Sometimes you have to seek with your heart to overcome obstacles of outlaws of the viking and corporate kinds. Our author weaves her characters strengths into a bond for the history books.
I don’t want to give any spoilers but the tree if time is as excellent as the previous time travel stories in this series. All her characters are always vividly described.
Time travel romance done right. The book was such an enjoyable well written book. Action, adventure, romance, and dynamic characters.
This has been a fabulous series. Great combination of historical fiction with contemporary romance, easy flow to all of the books, and I have enjoyed all of them. You will not be disappointed with any of them. I can’t wait till the next series.
