My Review
In A Kiss for All Time, Paula Quinn casts a spell of love and fate across centuries. Fable Ramsey, a sharp-tongued waitress from present-day Manhattan, never expected an antique timepiece and one contentious encounter with a stranger to catapult her into the year 1718. But that's exactly what happens—and it's as thrilling as it is disorienting.Struggling over the mysterious heirloom with a stranger in a gritty alley, Fable is flung into Georgian England—complete with powdered wigs, corsets, and social expectations she's hilariously unprepared for. Enter Benjamin West, the Duke of Colchester, a man battling personal demons and guarded grief. When he discovers Fable wandering on his estate, confused and outspoken, sparks fly—and not just from their arguments.
Their chemistry is undeniable, but their worlds couldn't be more different. As Fable adjusts to the past and Ben wrestles with letting go of his sorrow, the two find themselves drawn together by something far stronger than logic or time: love that defies centuries.
Quinn strikes a beautiful balance between heartfelt emotion and snappy banter, blending Fable's modern perspective with Ben's old-world honor. Readers will be hooked not only by their slow-burn romance but also by the vibrant supporting cast and lush historical detail.
