It’s said that women and men are from two different planets when it comes to communication, but how can they overcome the obstacles of prehistoric times when one of them simply doesn’t have the ability to comprehend language?
Ehd’s a caveman living on his own in a harsh wilderness. He’s strong and intelligent, but completely alone. When he finds a beautiful young woman in his pit trap, it’s … trap, it’s obvious to him that she is meant to be his mate. He doesn’t know where she came from, she’s wearing some pretty odd clothing, and she makes a lot of noises with her mouth that give him a headache. Still, he’s determined to fulfill his purpose in life – provide for her, protect her, and put a baby in her.
Elizabeth doesn’t know where she is or exactly how she got there. She’s confused and distressed by her predicament, and there’s a caveman hauling her back to his cavehome. She’s not at all interested in Ehd’s primitive advances, and she just can’t seem to get him to listen. No matter what she tries, getting her point across to this primitive but beautiful man is a constant — and often hilarious — struggle.
With only each other for company, they must rely on one another to fight the dangers of the wild and prepare for the winter months. As they struggle to coexist, theirs becomes a love story that transcends language and time.

Transcendence has a special place in my heart. This uniquely interwoven story-telling is tender and beautiful. This is my third or fourth reread and this time I decided to write a review – a few lines of my smittenness.
This was my first time-travel romance which I accidently picked up without reading the blurb. This book was easy to understand. …
I heard about this book from a romance author describing the premise and I was like, ok, I have to read it. I thought it would end up being ridiculous, and hard to get into since it is told through the eyes of a caveman who does not have the ability to understand spoken language. But I actually ended up really enjoying it…
I went into this wanting a cave man story and that is exactly what I got, but not even close to the way I expected.
This story is from the POV of Ehd, a cave man who clearly has no language ability. He comes across a woman we can only assume is from modern times, and the story is their life and love story.
I laughed out loud at some of the …
Read a few years ago, but I still remember how much I loved it.
I really enjoyed this book even though it was quite different from what I was expecting. For one thing it was narrated from the POV of the male MC Ehd. It was such a sweet love story that really did transcend time and language barriers. I would have loved to get more of Elizabeth’s POV instead of just in the epilogue, but I can see why the author …
Taking the term caveman back to its roots! Cat luffs Ehd
I don’t know where to begin in praising this book. It’s my first caveman romance and I believe one of a kind. Ehd a lonely caveman finds a girl trapped in a hole he’d dug to catch animals. From the moment he sees her he decides she is his mate and he wants to make a tribe with her. Unknown to him Elizabeth (Beh) is from the future and is totally …
So, so sweet. Initially going to give it three stars, but the more I think how sweet it was, four stars.
I’ve never read anything of Shay Savage so I don’t know how to compare this, but I would definitely read another.
This was cheezy but so much fun and romantic on a what the heck, I’m going for it kind of way. I thought SS was brave with this …
I had no idea how the author was going to get a romance out of a caveman who doesn’t have the capacity for language. She did! I loved this story! LOVED!
If I could rate this book more than 5 stars, I would do it whole heartedly.
I feel my words cannot do this book justice. I cannot express enough how beautiful this story is. Ehd is the most beautiful soul in romance.
I was so moved by the story of Beh and Ehd, the way they lived their lives in simple love. The ending, though bitter sweet, was so …
If you are reading this review then I can already tell you, “You need to read this book!” If you are drawn to well-crafted storytelling and appreciate novels that step outside the box…then you need to read this book. If you enjoy a love story that is shown to the reader, never told or explained; that is wild and fantastic, but also beautiful in …
An amazing Time Travel love story
Transcendence is a truly amazing story. The story description sounded interesting and the reviews were encouraging so I took a chance. I am so happy I did. This is a wonderful story of survival, hardship, trust, and true love. A young women, caught in her parents experiment sends her thousands of years into the …
This unique story is about love it’s a time travel but not in the least like any time travel I’ve ever read. While it was entertaining, it held my interest because of its insight into the human psyche. I read it and then also purchased it on audible. I’ve really enjoyed this interesting story and urge you to read it.
After his entire tribe is killed, Ehd, a prehistoric man is barely surviving until the day he finds a woman in one of his pit traps. He immediately claims her as his mate. What he doesn’t know is she’s a modern woman who ended up in his time. At first, she’s scared and distrustful, and they’re unable to communicate, but little by little they draw …

OMG, I LOVED this book! *stands, shouts brava loudly, and gives roaring applause* I have no idea …
Transcendence reached out and grabbed me from the first page.
I’ll be forever grateful for the recommendation from my friend and crit partner, because I don’t think I would taken a chance on this story without it, and that would have been such a shame! This brave author took on quite a challenge. How do you craft an emotionally-engaging love …
I don’t read fantasy or science fiction as a rule – it’s just not my jam – but I’ve been curious about TRANSCENDENCE by Shay Savage for a couple of years now. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed. I whizzed through it in a day. The writing is descriptive and well-paced, the characters are sympathetic and the ending is uncertain until you reach …
I want to shout it from the rooftops
THIS IS THE BEST!!!
I never thought a book with so few words (Like four) would be sending my heart a pitter patter.
Yes, I kid you, not this epic love story like has four entire words throughout but its the language of love contained between these pages that ultimately spoke to my heart.
Transcendence is a …
Loved the whole thing!
What can I say about this book that over 6000 5 star Goodreads members haven’t already said, seriously I loved this book it was unique and so very different from what I normally read, usually time travel books make my head ache not this one I was vested in the characters and what happened and loved the male POV which I think is also a first for …
