1296, Berwick-on-Tweed. Amid the ruin of Scotland’s defeat, young warrior Ciaran Kerr kneels beside a dying woman whose last words shatter him: “I’ve been waiting for you.” He never learns her name. But he never forgets her face.
Seven hundred years later, Claire Harrington is a modern woman reeling from betrayal, intending to leave behind a failing marriage even as she embarks on a last ditch effort to save it with a trip to Scotland. But when a crumbling abbey in the Highlands draws her across time, she awakens in a world of war and vengeance—staring into the eyes of a fierce Highland laird who looks at her with unnerving recognition.
To Ciaran, she is the echo of a memory that has haunted him for nine years. To Claire, he is unmistakably familiar. She doesn’t resist the truth she feels in her bones—that his is the same face she remembers from nearly a decade ago, the stranger who cradled her after the car accident that almost claimed her life.
Bound by a mystery neither can explain, Claire and Ciaran are drawn together by echoes of a past they both remember, and yet cannot fully trust. To surrender to what lies between them would mean defying reason, fate, and time itself. But some loves are too powerful to be denied.
As with all books in the Far From Home series, I Loved You Then is a stand-alone novel. The characters from different books do sometimes interact, but these can be read in any order.
