Of The Past And Eternity by Carole Lehr Johnson

 

Of The Past And Eternity is the first book I have read by Carole Lehr Johnson. I enjoyed the plot very much. The only reason I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 is the fact that I couldn't connect with the characters. I loved the settings and the descriptions of life in Regency England. I will definitely read more by this author.

All thought's are my own.

From Amazon:

Thrown back in time with the man she despises . . .

At her sister’s urging, Cora Anderson leaves Boston and travels to an old manor in rural England to pursue her dream job while also outrunning the pain of loss. What she finds is a historic property turned luxury-themed resort with an obnoxious resident celebrity.

Hugh Henley is an enigma to Cora. His classic good looks aren’t only what captures her attention, but what many dub his strangest quirk—his complete immersion into Regency life from manners to attire. When they are forced to work together, she wonders if the career opportunity is worth the trouble.

Furthermore, the two of them stumble into the year 1816 and struggle to survive the era and each other. The more time they spend together, the more an undeniable connection develops between them. In the midst of grief, Cora questions her faith in God while Hugh faces struggles of his own. But can his past help heal her future?
