Publisher's summary

The last thing Gillian Metcalf remembers before she passes out is being aboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California, where she witnesses a dog disappearing as if it were a phantom. So how did she end up in 1870 and in a man's room aboard the Ida Belle, traveling down the Mississippi?

Zachary Creighton, a gambler with one goal: to win back Creighton Manor. Marriage is not part of the plan, but since he is found with Gillian in his room, reputations are at stake, his included. To keep peace with his reluctant bride, he makes a bargain with her. He needs a tutor for his nephew Tyler, and she needs a roof over her head until they can annul their sham of a marriage. However, Zachary finds himself falling for Gillian's oddly charming ways despite the fact the woman claims to be from the future.

The gamble is trust, but will the stakes prove too high for Zachery to risk it all and win Gillian's heart?

Romance and Time travel

Molly was by far my favorite character after all is she is the catalyst for time traveling. Gillian and Zachary are born over a hundred years apart. I loved falling in love with them.
Unfortunately the narration fell really short for me. I stopped listening to the book at one point but did come back to it and I’m glad I did. While I didn’t enjoy the narration I loved the story

I did not expect to fall in Love!

This is a story about a young lady named Gillian who finds herself on a River Boat in 1870 instead of the Queen Mary in the present time. She is transported to a Stateroom on this River Boat that belongs to a Gambler named Zachary. Before she knows what is happening, they are discovered together and he has to claim marriage to Gillian to save his reputation. She goes along with it due to the fact that she had been dropped into a world she knows nothing about. Even though they are both in undesirable situations, they find themselves falling in love with each other. The story was well told with a great Narration job. I received this listen for free in exchange for an unbiased review. Thank you!

Good Time Travel story

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review

Gillian has traveled back in time to 1870 and meets Zachary.. neither have marriage in mind, however, to save their reputation, they marry..
This is a great time travel story (which I love) and it has a few twists and turns along the way which keeps in interested.
Sometimes the narration seemed like someone was just reading the book, but since I liked the story so much, I overlooked it.

Great characters

I loved this story, especially the quirky dog who left me with so many questions.

Well written to story grew me in and held me hostage, there was a lot going on with the two time periods and the surprising connections. Everything was interwoven between the characters and the different times, it's really well done.

Great writing, the characters and the story are vivid and compelling.

I enjoyed the narration, the character voices are well done, the accents are interesting but I can't comment on how realistic they are or aren't. The delivery could have used some more variation, it was a little flat.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

Enjoyable Romance

This book was such a good listen that I barley realized I had almost listened straight through but I just couldn't stop listening. It's a romance that you really don't think it's going to end happy. I loved the story, and the fact it was time travel, it gave the story the extra twist. I did receive this book free for a review, I would defiantly have paid it's such a good romance book.

Creighton Manor

Good story, I enjoyed everything about the story and characters but I feel it could’ve been better with stronger narration. It was difficult at times to determine the different characters.

From past to present.

Loved the book, the way it moved characters from the past to the present and back. Had a very good romance touch to it. The narrative was very good as well.

Time travel romance!

This is a fun time travel book with some unique elements! A dog being the catalyst to time travel was quite unique and fun. I really enjoyed this time travel romance. It is worth taking the time to listen to this story!

Narration was ok.

The story starts slow but eventually picks up. The story is very entertaining even though I would have enjoyed it even more if the narrator had shown some emotion and differentiated the characters more. Overall a great listen.

I’m looking forward to reading more books by this talented Author.

Adult Time Travel Romance

Have to say, I enjoyed this one, but I would warn that this is definitely an adult romance with some explicit content. I did feel this book was a little too long and drawn-out with some of the typical misunderstandings that happens early on in relationships, especially the ones that start out forced. It was an interesting spin on time travel, and I really enjoyed the different characters in this book. I only wish that the content have been a little cleaner, I prefer it when an author closes the bedroom door before things get too heavy. The narrator did a wonderful job with the characters, acting, and was a lot of fun to listen to.
