The River Of Time Series: Book 3.1- Bourne by Lisa T. Bergren

Eep! I love it, I love it, I love it! Bourne, though an e-novella, is just as grappling as the three books before it. And this time...wait for it...Lia's POV is written too!


The story starts of right where Torrent left us. The battle is now over and the girls, Gabi and Lia, and their parents are in for a shock as they deal with the aftermath of the battle. Since they've always escaped back to their time after major battles, they've not really experienced what life is like after a battle, and Gabi, being Marcello's wife and the Lady of the castle has a lot of responsibility on her shoulders now- and it's not as simple as being a She-wolf ;)

Lia's learning the ropes as well and figuring out where she fits in her new world. She hasn't exactly grasped Gabi's mantra on "life", but she's about to...

A new danger as risen up for the She-wolves and their family- poachers. Since the band of brotherhood came to the Forelli's help, the Fiorentini will stop at nothing to find and kill every remaining member. Then, there's the little problem that lies between Gabi, Marcello, and Greco- what's a girl to do when she's got her husband on one side, and a man who's feelings she can't reciprocate on the other?

Awkward...

My favorite part of this, however, was Lia's take on things. Having been so used to and comfortable with Gabi's point of view on things, I'll admit- I wasn't so sure I'd like Lia's POV.
But I couldn't have been more biased, or wrong! Lia is every bit as amazing and daring as her sister. I love how Mrs. Lisa stayed true to her writing style but showed the difference and similarities between the two sisters. I find that when writing different point of views in the same book, it's easy to write the other person similarly. But she didn't. Lia is her own person, with her own opinions and thoughts.

She's not as taken away with her new life style- but nevertheless, she's glad she's there- as her sister. I can understand that- in fact, Lia's take on things is a refreshing and helps to understand the difference between the sisters. And then, of course, his her relationship with Luca.

Can you say, "HAWT?" :D

They make me swoon, ache, and giggle.

The two of them end up on a little adventure, and not only does it bring them much closer, we learn more about these characters too. Like, did you guys know that Luca had a sister? Yep. I didn't, either.

That's all I'm going to say [I don't want to reveal too much...I fear I already have :O ]

Although I love Marcello and Gabi's relationship sooo much, Lia and Luca have a bit of magic of their own.

All I'm going to end with is this: It might be a short story, but it is packed with HUGE drama, action, and adventure that is going to be hard to forget. Mrs. Lisa, does not disappoint.

This amazing, e-novella is available for Kindle, Nook, Sony and major e-readers for $2.99!!!
And if you don't have an e-reader, don't fret! You can always download it on you mobile for FREE, and then just buy the book :) You WILL NOT REGRET IT!!
