3½ KISSES from Romance Divas!

Below is a partial excerpt from my first review of BEYOND THE MAZE from Romance Divas, the NUMBER ONE romance writers forum on the net!

BEYOND THE MAZE

An erotica, historical, time-travel e-book

Aubrianna Sheffield inherited Chadwick Manor, an old English estate that offered tours on the weekends. Many afternoons she visited the center of the maze to collect herself and unwind from the day. Still dressed in nineteenth century regalia from an earlier tour, she lost track of time. It was only when rain threatened that she came to herself and hurried toward the manor house. And managed to trip on the path! Disgruntled, she started to straighten when her hand brushed against something solid. A set of skeleton keys. Mystified, she held onto them and dashed along the path, hoping to avoid the downpour. Instead, she ran smack dab into someone. And a gorgeous someone at that, if it wasn't for his threatening demeanor.

Lord Keane Hamilton Chadwick IV, found the woman in his maze both intriguing and infuriating. She persisted on telling him she owned the property when he knew darn well the inheritance was his alone. Keane needed to solve the mystery. Was she as insane as she sounded or did the innocence he glimpsed in her beautiful eyes hold the real truth?
Good beginning, an even better ending, made Beyond the Maze a fascinating read. The tension was good, but some parts were so glossed over and hurried, it could be a bit confusing. Aubrianna seemed a bit brash at times, but she could match Keane step for step when he was at his most overbearing. Their personalities seemed to suite each other perfectly. I love historical novels and although I would have liked more description of the time, I enjoyed this short piece. For a brief glimpse into the past, Beyond the Maze is the perfect read.
