I loved this story and have enjoyed the series! Paula Quinn knows how to create stories that keep the reader flipping pages as fast as they can! This is a wonderful romantic adventure and the MCs are both well developed - the romance built between them had some great chemistry.

That was so confusing, it started out so well, I loved all the characters, especially Wolf, he gave me butterflies, and camelee was a really interesting character.
Overall, I really liked how the story was going, and then suddenly it went into a downward spiral.
The whole magic thing and secret family was done so poorly, everything felt so rushed and dull.
The book just turned from a romance into general fiction, it lost all the spark.
The ending was quite cringe worthy since there was no good leading into the finale.

I have read most of Paula Quinn’s books and I am a big fan .

I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this one and couldn’t wait to read it. I am so happy to say that I loved The Warrior’s Echo. It’s a fantastic story .
I will be adding this one to my buy in paperback list for sure.

this checked off everything I look for in a book. Was not disappointed. Really enjoyed this book. I will read more from this author. Must read. Historical fiction oh yeah. Love me some of this.

A Time Travel Fantasy Adventure That Kept Me Turning the Pages

Camelee is Thrown back in time a thousand years, from the concrete jungles of New York to the brutal times of the Viking raiders. She is taken by a Viking warrior and is expected to be a slave. She goes from a life of privilege to a life of servitude at the blink of an eye. However, Wolf is unlike any Viking Camelee has ever read about in history books, and she finds herself slowly losing her heart to him. Is the brutal Viking losing his heart to her, too? He finds himself doing her bidding at every turn, and a warrior never does such a thing. He never shows weakness. Wolf finds himself protecting Camelee, too, and it is more than protection that a master would give to a slave.

Camelee and Wolf will take you on a journey full of action, adventure, and romance. This is my favorite book in this series. It is full of surprises and twists that will keep you turning the pages. I enjoyed it and would recommend it to those who like time travel romance, Arthurian legends, and historical fantasy that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Except for the brief, obvious time travel aspect presented upfront, the subdued spotlight on it during the majority of this story had it playing out more like a stereotypical, historical Scottish romance. No, that isn't a typo or criticism, folks. Though the hero was Viking, thankfully he had a less ruthless alpha male streak than I expected or have experienced in that genre, i.e. how he dealt with the heroine and her newly found companions. Alpha possessive but protective and determined seemed to keep his misbehaving in check. This sassy heroine seemed to open his eyes and heart to sides of life he had not given much thought or credence to.

All was actually going pretty well until about 70%. What can I say? The too large cast of time travel characters that popped up out of nowhere combined with the all over the place attempt to tie them individually and cohesively together with past events and the current threat was just too much to digest and keep straight. Ending result = I tuned out. Skimming to the end as fast as I could, I started taking quick mental snapshots of what was likely happening and just pieced them together enough to convince myself there was an actual somewhat wrapped up conclusion.

There's a fair chance fans of The Golden Dynasty by Kristen Ashley may really fall for this book, btw. As long as you can handle the handling of what I just mentioned. I can't shake the feeling the author stumbled somewhat in scripting the last portion. Perhaps it was simply just too much to try to compact together in the first place.

Title: The Warrior's Echo, Series: Echoes In Time (Book 3), Author: Paula Quinn, stand-alone but part of a series, alpha possessive, protective hero, sassy heroine, get to know each other first, time travel element, some steamy scenes late in book, no OW/OM drama, no OP after meeting, romance safe IMO.

Book 1 - Echo of Roses
Book 2 - Echoes of Abandon
Book 3 - The Warrior's Echo

It took me some time to warm up to Camelee, an actress from the 21st century. I found her to be spoiled and a little bit of a brat. She travels back in time to the Viking raids of Saxons lands and is taken by a Viking who thinks she is his. Wolf is a Viking who turns into Berseker mode when in battle.

Ms. Quinn has crafted a captivating tale in this third installment of Echoes in Time series. I have not read the previous books in the series, but I enjoyed this nonetheless and plan to go back and also read those when I get a chance. I haven't read many time travel books, but this one sure gives me a reason to do so. After having traveled back in time, Camelee finds herself in the presence of a battle between the Viking and Saxons. Camelee has had her heart broken and does not trust anybody, but she is a strong and feisty character. When she is captured by Wolf who thinks he now owns her, she certainly doesn't hesitate to give him a piece of her mind. Wolf takes good care of her and treats her well., and the two are attracted to each other. It doesn't take long for that attraction to turn into passion. Ms Quinn has penned an engaging story full of emotion and strong characters and I have really enjoyed reading it. I will definitely be going back to see what I missed!

🧝‍♀️ Historical romance 🧝‍♀️

I've recieved this book as an ARC and I was very excited to read it, loving higlander-type historical romance.
I had a few issues that irked me with the writing style. I couldn't get close to the characters at all, feeling like I was kept from connecting with them by the way the story was written. It felt to me like a play by play telling of a story, never stopping to explore what the characters were actually feeling.
The premise was good, the plot was good but I feel the writer had missed an opportunity to write a spectacular novel by skimming over all the important parts.
To me the story felt rushed and incomplete and I finished it feeling very unsatisfied.
The romance was dull and everything about the book felt forced and rushed.
This is the first book from this author I've read. I feel it could have been much much better if not so rushed.
Beacuse of this being an arc I have read the whole book, I don't know if I would have if it was a purchased book.

I'm very sad to rate this book only 1. I really wanted to love it.

The Warrior's Echo by Paula Quinn is the last in her series about the children of King Arthur and the magic that sent them to find their true loves, no matter what century. This is about Camelee Pendry, adopted by parents who were too busy to care for her; she has spent her entire life looking for someone to love her. She is a TV star and has a cadre of people looking after her, but after a series of short romances, is convinced there is no one for her. She finds herself in 1017 in the middle of a battle between Danes and Saxons. There is so much blood. What an elaborate joke this is. Wait until she finds out the perpetrator. The chief, a man named Wolf, seems to have become her protector, she his slave. Never!
This has been a terrific series. I am sad this appears to be the last book. It is clever and original, until it comes to the ending. I hated it. It made no sense and did not being to live up to the standards set by the earlier books. I understand the author not knowing how to end it all, but she is so talented, she could have done better than this!

Camelee was a good character. It was fun watching her become adjusted to her new circumstance, to watch her begin to care about people, which was a new experience for her. It was fun to watch her fall in love with Wolf. She found her mother, and he daughter. The ones she didn't know she had. They loved her and it was a completely new experience. It was, overall, a wonderful story arc.

I was invited to read a free e-ARC of The Warrior's Echo by Dragonblade, through Netgalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own. #netgalley #dragonblade #paulaquinn #thewarriorsecho

Camalee Pendrey is an actress from the present, who suddenly finds herself back in time to 1017 with Viking Chief Wolf (Ulf) Kristiansen and his brother Finn. Camalee does not like it there, especially the thought that she is a slave to the Viking Chief. She soon realizes she needs the protection this Viking Chief can give her. I loved the chemistry between Camalee and Wolf, with amazing characters throughout.
While this can be read as a stand alone book, it is much more enjoyable if you have read the first two books in the series. The story is also about King Arthur and his search for his wife and children. It was also nice to see the characters from the first two books make an appearance.
I highly recommend this book and series.

Ulf is a chief in the Viking raiders of King Cnut. He and his men are killing any Saxons who stand in their way.

Our hero is typical of his time, a strong and ruthless man. He sometimes slips into Berserker mode when he fights. That could prove to be very helpful.

Camelee is a modern woman who suddenly finds herself in the middle of a Viking raid. Our heroine is normally a pampered, famous actress who trusts nobody. Her heart has been broken and sealed away. She is now well outside of her comfort zone.

That is a very dangerous era for everyone who lives there, constant battles with no mercy shown.

This is an emotional story full of fabulous characters, some you might have met in previous books in the series. We have a little magic sprinkled in with all the action because this is a very special family after all. You don't need to have read the others to enjoy this one, but it will definitely tempt you to read them all. This is the final book so it has a "winding up" scene at the end where the whole family meet up.

Great fun.

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Very enjoyable read, some great characters from the start, and some that take a little more time to get to know.
I loved Wolf, and Finn intrigued me no end.
Camelee took a little longer I must admit, she’s strong and as would be expected didn’t settle into being a slave well.
I would love to read more on their lives maybe before they met, see what shaped them into the characters they are.
Great addition to the other ones in the series.

I received an Arc copy of this book and chose to post this review

If you love history, Arthurian legends, time travel, magic or even just love in general, you will probably love this series.

I know that other reviews have said that these don't need to be read in order .... that you can read The Warrior's Echo, the third Echoes in Time tale, without having read the first two.

I suppose they are correct in that you CAN, but should you?

Absolutely not.

I cannot imagine getting as much out of the third without the set-up from the first two. I devoured all three in a few days time -- grabbing the first two, Echo of Roses and Echoes of Abandon, from Kindle Unlimited after receiving the eARC for The Warrior's Echo from NetGalley .... and then spent the $5 for the permanent digital copies so I will still have them all together once my KU membership ends.

I cannot say that any one is better than either of the others because they truly are not separate stories -- only separate books. It is one epic and glorious story told in installments that will quite probably make you ignore your TV .... your weekend chores .... and your bedtime.

The Echoes in Time series has been amazing with its continuation of the Arthurian legend of protecting Authur and his family from Morgan! Hollywood star Camalee Pendrey has been dropped smack in the middle of a Viking -Saxon battle in the eleventh century in the quest to find her one true love. As with her siblings, she had not a clue of what was going on. Her sassy attitude adds to the enjoyment of this romance.

Wolf is her perfect match with his being chief of his warriors. He is a man of his time. It takes a bit before Camalee and Wolf realize they are meant to be together. Their romance continues to explode with action and danger while they come to love and need the other.

Ms. Quinn brings the secondary characters to the front to keep the reader turning the page to see and feel a fantastic end to the series. It does not end as expected; it is even better.

When I saw the cover and that this is a time travel romance, I immediately wanted to read this book.
The story is very engaging, and I didn't want to stop until I finished.
This story is about Camelee, who is sent to the eleventh century in the middle of a battle between the Vikings and Saxons. There she is captured by Wolf, who claims her for himself, and then we can see how their relationship will develop with time.

In my opinion there were some facts that weren't historically accurate but it wasn't that much and didn't bother me too much. Also their relationship could be a little better developed

In addition to that this book is very easy to read and it caught my attention that I read in one go

I received an ARC of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Another exciting addition to this engaging series that throws the pampered heroine
into Viking times. Can you just imagine, being here in modern times and the next
in the brutal times of the Vikings? Well no, I think I would just have a heart attack!

Lucky for her, she is captured by a strong, mighty Viking chief who claims her for
himself! Being right in the mist of their battle with the Saxons, that is not a bad
place to be...

Fierce warriors, amazing location and a wonderful ending to this exciting saga that
pulls everything together and leaves your mind back in this century!!

I really wanted to like The Warrior's Echo more than I did. Though I enjoy historical romances that are a bit... nuts, this one failed by having very little character development. I couldn't feel a connection with either of the characters and I certainly could not see how Camelee and Wolf fell in love with each other. I wanted something more similar to Johanna Lindsey's time travel stories and The Warrior's Echo was certainly not it.
1.8 stars.
