3-3.5 starsOK, I'm sort of holding my breath as I type this review, because I'm concerned that it will be misunderstood. I *liked* this book, but I really wanted to love it, and I didn't.The author truly focuses on the two main characters: Maggie our Heroine from South Carolina, and Andrew our Highland Hero. Maggie has "the Sight", a gift passed to her from her grandmother - it apparently skips a generation. Maggie sees visions of what will come, good or bad, but mostly bad. The only "vision" sh...
*** originally posted to: Bookish as a part of the blog tour Under the Same Sky by Genevieve Graham is a superb historical romance with a unique paranormal twist. From the outstandingly thorough development of characters and plot to the deliciously served historical details, it's a real treat to read. Fast paced, gracefully written and immensely enjoyable, it's a book to devour. My dreams introduced me to people I had never seen, and took me places I could never have known existed. Maggie Johns...
I paid full price for this after I read the sample. It was lowered from 12.99 to 7.99, so I figured why not. I have seen it recommended a while and I liked the premise reading the blurb. One of the few books I bought right from my Kindle after reading the sample and I love that it picks right up where I left off. Seamless. I usually order books from my computer, but I just couldn't wait and had to have it. This was really good. Beautiful language. There is a lot of dark stuff in here though. I
4.5 StarsThe love story in this book was written in that all consuming true love style that I love so much. Yes, there were parts of the book that I personally didn't enjoy because they were too gritty and violent. But I am happy that I kept on truckin' through those parts because the love story really was fantastic.In order to really get into the love story, you have to be willing to have an open mind. This pair has seen each other in visions and dreams for their whole lives but they have never...

Maggie goes through so much in this book, she is kidnapped by slavers and rescued by a Native American tribe.Born thousands of miles apart, both Maggie and Andrew have...
Being a fan of Outlander and knowing that the author of this book is also a fan, I had higher hopes for this one. Hopes that weren't exactly met. That's not to say it's bad. Not at all, I enjoyed reading it and found quite a bit to like. However, the entire story felt somewhat rushed. Ms. Graham wanted to pack a lot into the story, but only gave herself roughly 300 pages to do so. The result is that, while readers are almost certainly never bored, they're also never quite allowed any room to rec...
I almost feel as though I should do a jig because I have branched out from Outlander and read another romance with a highlander – Genevieve Graham’s debut novel Under The Same Sky. Under The Same Sky has similar elements to Outlander (paranormal elements, highlanders, Culloden) but Genevieve Graham’s book is NOT a doorstopper.Read the rest of my review here
Absolutely fantastic and best written historical romance book I have ever read. This stoy had my emotions up and down and I loved it! I cried within the first three chapters of the book. That’s how great this is. If any book could get my emotions just wrung out like this, it has to get the highest recommendation I have ever put forth to a book. I have read hundreds of books, but this might be the first, in my memory, that I have ever cried from. That’s how touching and descriptive scenes from th...
3.5 starsGenevieve Graham’s debut novel, set dually in Colonial America and Scotland, is a sweet, inspiring romance spiked with just enough action and mystery to keep the reader turning pages just as fast as she can.Under the Same Sky follows the lives of two people destined to be lovers, though they are separated by a vast distance. Maggie is the eldest daughter of a poor farming family in the Carolinas, gifted with “the Sight,” the ability to dream the future, and sometimes the present as well...
It is the 1700's and Maggie Johnson has grown up in the colony of South Carolina. Maggie has always had dreams that told her of the future. Her mother says that she has "The Sight" just as her grandmother did before she was burned as a witch. These dreams give Maggie glimpses of what is to come, but not always. Some of her dreams include a boy that is around her age and in these dreams they grow close to each other without speaking a word or sharing a touch. Maggie doesn't know his name, but she...
I was actually quite surprised by this book. Having received the recommendation, I felt like a change and downloaded it whilst on sale at Amazon. After looking at the cover I was expecting a quick bit of fluff to read…..and was very happily surprised that it wasn’t. This book is a very well done historical read – a little supernatural, a little violent, and I was drawn into the story from the very first page. Born in South Carolina 1730, Maggie has the gift of the Sight. Andrew, born in the High...
