Review: Romance and
magic intertwine in Candace Bowen Early’s Spur
of the Moment.
When
best-selling historical romance author Bronwyn Chase meets a mysterious mystic
from the past, Browyn’s life changes on the spin of a knight’s spur. She is
transported to 12th-century Cornwall, where she discovers she’s
fated to love a knight named Euric. There’s one problem. He’s under a curse from
a dark witch. Bronwyn must call upon her own mystical birthright to find a way
to free him, or else.
Spur of the Moment shows how soul mates can withstand the
fates, distance, and time. The plot is well-developed and has a beautiful
circularity to it. The hints at the historical along with our own modern age
add to this fantasy romance. The mysticism and magic intrigue and delight in
their elements of old traditions and religions. The characters can be
beautiful, stubborn, unyielding, and magical. I enjoyed the fast-paced and
fated romance between Bronwyn and Euric, although I wish we could’ve savored
their romance a bit more. Early does a fantastic job at making the reader ache
along with Bronwyn when everything changes for her again. The first part of the
novel is a bit too fast at times, but the second half is perfect.
For a
beautiful romance with a touch of the historical and fantasy read Spur of the Moment by Candace Bowen
Early. It’ll sweep you away to a magical world with the spin of a spur and the
flash of a moment.
