IHIBRP 5 star book review: An Exquisite Family Saga Worth Reading Again and Again! Busy-body Harriet is at it again, nosing about in everyone's business, in VL McBeath's When Time Runs Out --the third book of The Ambition & Destiny Series. And, thank goodness for Harriet's meddling ways, for her keen intelligence and wit makes this exquisite family saga well-worth reading again and again and again as the Family Weatherby tilts ahead full-speed into an uncertain future. For McBeath's men, it's mostly business as usual. But even as the males dominate by clinging desperately to the past, McBeath's female characters yearn to evolve into much more independent beings. McBeath's penchant for sustaining excellence in her writing is only surpassed by her brilliant research into the history of the Victorian Age as her characters forge ahead--with some kicking and screaming--into the turn of the century. INDIES HELPING INDIES BOOK REVIEW PROJECT GOLD Quality Mark This is a beautifully written and edited book ... a continuation of a series that has been a delight throughout. BooksGoSocial This is another excellent read in the continuing story of a family's trials and tribulations. I really loved this addition in the series! The characters are well developed and fun to read about. The plot is getting more intense as well. You should really get this wonderful book and read it for yourself.

Author Information

Born and raised in Liverpool (UK), VL McBeath trained as a scientist and worked in the pharmaceutical industry for many years. It was only when she was researching her family history that the idea for The Ambition & Destiny Series was born. In those early days, she had no idea what she would find or where it would lead. A couple of years later, however, she felt compelled to turn the unfolding story into a novel. She now lives in Cheshire with her husband, youngest daughter, and cat. In addition to family history, her interests include rock music and Premier League Football.
