"Beautiful action-packed love story"
During the reign of King Henry III, triumphant knight
Stephen of Bellingham and a baron's daughter Amarantha of
Ullswater meet and fall in love. He vows forever, but a
maniac kills her. He not only feels lonely; he just dreads
life for having failed his beloved. In 2003, Steve Bellingham wakes up every morning in fear,
having suffered through a nightmare that feel very real.
Feeling the foreboding pressure of relentless angst, he
desperately seeks a remedy hopefully something that will
let him sleep dreamlessly, as life is not worth living like
this. A psychic helps him see the dream as something that
happened to him and his beloved Amarantha centuries ago.
He now has a quest of the heart: to complete the vow he
once made, but must wait for the moment to go back in time
to change history so that he and Amarantha can live and
love as he promised. THE CIRCLE OF A PROMISE is a powerful time travel romance
that hooks the reader due to the passion of the lead male
protagonist (though one must wonder with his obsession how
he escaped the men in white). Because readers will feel
deeply the loss that Stephen suffers that lives with
centuries after his beloved was killed, the audience will
root for him to do the seemingly impossible on the wings of
eternal love with his Amarantha. Harriet Klausner
