This book was really something different, but I think that's part of why it's so good. What we're given is a book told almost entirely (like 96%, with only the epilogue being different) from the first person present-tense perceptive of Ehd, a prehistoric man who one day finds a young woman (whom he recognizes as different and whom we slowly realize is from sometime well into the future) in his trap and how they slowly build a life together after he decides they should be mates and becomes very attached to her in spite of "all the noise she makes" (i.e. talking). I was legitimately curious to find out how things would transpire in this book after finding out about it earlier while roaming Amazon.I almost never seen romantic books told entirely from the perspective of the male protagonist, which I found very different, but also quite engaging. If this book had been told from Elizabeth/Beh's perspective it would have lost out on a lot, I think, because he modern-day thoughts would have clashed so much and taken away from the setting and denied the reader such a refreshing change. Edh offers a very unique first-perspective. He's smart, but also prehistoric, and lacks the ability to comprehend or use verbal or written language. His way of existing is simple, yet he's presented as a mentally and emotionally complex being that feels rejection, sadness, happiness, selflessness, anger, confusion, affection, and love, who tries to think of ways to convey his thoughts and feelings to another person and also to understand hers when language is basically completely out of the question. It's interesting to sort of cut down a being into the very simple, basic things all people need and have that play out. Ehd's goals and means are simple, but he's not pragmatic or coldly logical. He fears for his mate and children, tries to do things that'll make his mate happy, mourns his losses, decides it's alright if he never has children with Beh as long as they stay together, and even shows a willingness to forsake his own life if he is without his mate. It's quite an emotional experience looking through Ehd's eyes. I was so gripped that I read this book in a single sitting. I commend the author for taking this route and choosing to cast things through Ehd's eyes and not Beh's or put it in the third person.
Another aspect of this book that makes it so different is its setting. I almost never see books set so far back in history; granted, the author took the luxury of sort of playing around with human evolution to make her own species that fit the bill of what she wanted to create, but otherwise the setting and the character's actions seemed realistic and believable. The latest time period in a book I've read was somewhere in late 3000 BCE in the deserts of Mesopotamia after civilization and language have already developed into the first cities and kingdoms of the world. This was very interesting; now, of course, being prehistoric, the setting boiled down to a lot of hunting and gathering, but what I mean is that this is so different that even these sort of events were interesting to read about as Ehd and Beh interacted with one another. I think the author was bold and brave for taking this route when she sat down to write a new book; I've not read or seen anything quite like this and I'm happy to say I'd like to see more. It's like that film, 10,000 BC, but formatted in a way that's easier to understand and connect.
This book is also very well edited; I don't think I noticed a single error in the whole thing. Yes, the language is much simpler, but you'd be surprised how frequently I find minor typos on kindle books of any caliber, so whenever I find a book that isn't from a major publishing house that has had an excellent editing and proofreading job, I'm very impressed and feel much better about giving money towards it.
Overall, I actually really liked this book and I'm happy I bought it. It was different, it was emotional, it was entertaining, it was something that has definitely left an impression and is a story I won't soon be forgetting.

Hoh !!! Where do I even start with this one. First it is nothing I've ever read before. I MEAN completely different from any romance I've read. Edh, A caveman all alone trying to survive hasn't seen anyone for who knows how long. He comes Elizabeth (beg) across a modern day woman and well you will need to read the rest because it would be spoilerish to talk about the storyline.
The title for this book soooo completely fitting. It's romance but with so many barriers. Language being the most prevalent. He's a freaking caveman he can't speak other then grunts !!! Here's the thing though and what stood out for me when it comes to love, compassion, protectiveness basic human instincts barriers don't mean squat. Barriers can be overcome and this book makes you think.
My heart I don't even know what I feel so many things at this point. I truly fell for Edh, he made my heart ache, he made my heart swoon. All with his actions. Gah I can't even think of what else to say here because I am still processing this book. I am not sure I will ever forget this book and I am certain that I will reread it.
If you are willing to try something different yet still want a romance that is really told in its purest form. Then I definitely recommend this book. It will make you think long after you have finished it. When I finished I put the book down and the first word I could think of was HOH !!! You will understand why when you read the book.
With the new trend of quick reads, insta-love, brawny, horny dream men who claim and mate eager yet flustered women capable of multiple orgasms with their alpha hunks within the five minutes of having just met them and with the blatant misuse and confusion of the concept of the word ---love-- as it is bandied about incessantly during bouts of animal love making between two virtual strangers...it is a surprise to actually find a book in the romance section that truly is a love story.
This story is so tender, so truly sweet, as you read in first person and only from the viewpoint of the male, how Ehd meets and falls in love with Beh. Ehd's love for Beh is what love stories are all about. He is a man whose every waking moment revolves around Beh's happiness. Your heart will just somersault and you will turn the pages of this book and won't be able to put it down--this is how enthralled you will become watching Ehd do everything to protect and love his Beh.
I can not find the words for the enthusiasm I feel for this story. It is a rarity--among the hundreds of romances out there--this truly is a romance. From beginning to end you are taken on an emotional journey; you feel for Beh as she is thrust into a world in which she is helpless and afraid. You feel for Ehd, his deep need to latch on to a woman, to be able to care for her and love her after having suffered horrendous loss and subsequent isolation.
You follow their daily struggles, how they try to communicate, to survive in a simple yet stark and harsh world.
Some reviewers mention that some pages of the story are redundant, that the story becomes repetitive. I disagree. It is fascinating to observe what life is like in a world with no modern comforts--the adjustments and hardships Beh has to face as well as the new challenges thrust at Ehd. The monotony one might feel through the descriptions about their daily routine just enhances and emphasizes an existence that could be described as bleak if it weren't for the love Ehd feels for Beh. He is her savior in every sense, as she becomes his. Their love makes this story what it is. Despite the most difficult circumstances, in a backdrop that is severe and tests one's limits--Ehd and Beh are happy.
I can only recommend this story. I still have tears in my eyes--and, ironically, that never happens for me in the romance genre.
I so hope that there will be a sequel...and yet, I don't know how the author will be able to outdo herself. For me, this book stands on its own and is a deeply satisfying, engaging, beautiful read that will fill and reinforce your heart with the power and majesty of unconditional love.
