A passionate, sweeping novel of a love that transcends time.

When twenty-something Wall Street analyst Kate Wilson attracts the notice of the legendary Julian Laurence at a business meeting, no one’s more surprised than she is. Julian’s relentless energy and his extraordinary intellect electrify her, but she’s baffled by his sudden interest. Why would this handsome British billionaire—Manhattan’s most eligible bachelor—pursue a pretty but bookish young banker who hasn’t had a boyfriend since college?

The answer is beyond imagining - at least at first. Kate and Julian’s story may have begun not in the moneyed world of 21st-century Manhattan but in France during World War I, when a mysterious American woman emerged from the shadows of the Western Front to save the life of Captain Julian Laurence Ashford, a celebrated war poet and infantry officer.

Now, in modern-day New York, Kate and Julian must protect themselves from the secrets of the past, and trust in a true love that transcends time and space.

The story was well written although, to my mind, it could have been edited a little more tightly. It is a good story, has an interesting 'take' on time travel and let me completely ignore the unreality of the story, from time travel to ending.

All that said, I don't think I'd have found the book nearly as interesting without the AMAZING talent of Ms LaVoy. Her delivery was, to my ears, flawless. Pacing was excellent, differentiation of voices was skillfull and absolute, and she does a fantastic job with accents. Even the parts that dragged were tolerable with the absolutely believable delivery.

The book has its hair-raising parts and some suspense and confusion but nothing that made Wussy-me want to either put the book aside or skip through parts. Those of you who are not fond of thrillers will know what I mean and can feel safe cozying up to this book.

While I probably will not reread this book, it was absolutely worth doing the first time, and definitely worth the credit.

Interesting take on time travel

I loved the story! While it had a few spots that seemed a little iffy I enjoyed this story very much. Anyone who likes time travel and history this is a great one. Near the end I could not stop listening. January LaVoy does an excellent job at reading the story.

Great listen

This was my least favorite from Beatriz Williams- it was a bit slow and the story seemed a little convoluted. She is a favorite author of mine though and I highly recommend her later books.

Just okay

Very enjoyable book, but the male voices were off-putting. Why can't there he male and female narrators?

Good story and really likable characters.

I had to roll my eyes - sweet talking Julian worshipping Kate. Kate worshipping Julian. Enough already. Time travel made it interesting. It was my first book of Ms. Williams and probably the last.

Much too sweet.

What did you love best about Overseas?

I'm a romance novel junkie and this book did not disappoint. As a matter fact it was so sugary sweet that I had a tootheache by the last 5 hours of the book. Julian Ashford is the most perfect man in the entire world. He is physically appealing, protective, has a great sense of humor, apologizes when he is wrong, is a sexual dynamo and the cherry on top is that he's a billionaire. What can be better than this?

What was one of the most memorable moments of Overseas?

There's nothing spectacular about this book. For anyone who loves sugary sweet romance with a bit of time travel, this would be right up your alley. But honestly, as I digest this book I'm forced to admit that there is no singular part that stands out. Or that will remain with me. It's all pretty unforgettable.

Which scene was your favorite?

Williams creates the most lush worlds and captivating stories that you just sink into every time. I just discovered Overseas and loved every minute of it. I never want to leave the world she creates for another one , but each one plunges me in again to a new equally lush and wonderful place and a fantastic story. Overseas delivered 100 % unfortunately I really think I have reached the end of her collection so far…… waiting for the next. Where does that story creating imagination come from ? They do not stop and please , keep ‘Em coming !

A good story, but….
The time travel phenomenon wasn’t believable, and the whole story moved too slowly for me.

Confusing and Slow-Paced
