The Brides Black Mirror
The Brides Black Mirror
Out of place and out of time, Alana must fight to find her footing in fourteenth-century Scotland amongst a blood feud that has seen clans Cameron and Shaw clashing for generations. Her only ally? A cursed warlord with a heart of gold and a crooked smile that wants nothing more than to put the hostilities to rest—a warlord who thinks she’s a witch because of the cell phone in her pocket.
Seven hundred years in the past.
Two clans at war.
One cellphone that may be Alana’s ticket back home.
If only Alana could follow her head instead of her heart and not fall in love. Who said all was fair in love and war?

This book was fun to read with a fantastic story arc, the characters were diverse and easy to connect with emotionally, the scenes were well crafted as well as beautifully written.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
this was a great concept for a series, it worked well with what I was expecting. It was a strong start to the Seath Mor series. I enjoyed every part of the journey and getting to understand what was going on. Kalani Madden has a great style going on and I'm glad I got to read this.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
It was suspenseful and also had enough humor and romance to give a really enjoyable read. It has an ending and can probably be read as a standalone, but you know there is more to come, and you definitely want to read on.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
The time travel was okay for as far as it went. The romance was a good start. The grand finish was wrapped up quickly with the final battle hero and heroine standing together victorious. The reader staring off into neverland assuming they lived happily ever after. Couldn’t there have been a date of his death? Just to give us a bit more. I gave it a generous 4 stars because it is a quick read with some moments…
When I saw this book, I was immediately drawn to it. It reminded me of one of my favorite shows, Outlander. It has a lot of similarities but also a lot of differences. Which I like because The Brides Black Mirror has its own vibe.Our FMC, Alana, is in Scotland for her wedding but ditches her fiancée at the alter. Traveling through the highland forests, she realizes at some point, she’s no longer in her own time, but somehow traveled back in time to 1398 Scotland. In the midst of two clans at war, she has to find a way to ensure her survival with many obstacles in her way, love being one of them.I loved so many things about this book. There was a good amount of funny moments that actually made me laugh out loud. The characters were engaging and the plot was entertaining. But there was also things I wanted more of. I know this is a short story, which makes it faster paced, but I wanted more intimate moments between Shaw and Alana. As I was reading, I kept imagining different scenarios between the two of them. Alana and Shaw are such a good match as a couple and I wanted more scenes in the book to reflect that. I hope there will be a second book that’ll fulfill my wishes. Fingers crossed!This was such a fun read! If you like time-travel (especially involving Scottish highlanders), I recommend this book! 4 ⭐️’s.I was sent a free copy of this book from HiddenGemsBooks and am voluntarily leaving this review.
