About this listen

Libby has been given a powerful gift: to live one life in 1774 colonial Williamsburg and the other in 1914 Gilded Age New York City. When she falls asleep in one life, she wakes up in the other without any time passing. She has one conscious mind but two very different lives and bodies.

In colonial Williamsburg, Libby is a public printer for the House of Burgesses and the royal governor, trying to provide for her family and support the Patriot cause. The man she loves, Henry Montgomery, has his own secrets. As the revolution draws near, both their lives—and any hope of love—are put in jeopardy.

Libby's life in 1914 New York is filled with wealth, drawing-room conversations, and bachelors. But the only work she cares about—women's suffrage—is discouraged, and her mother is intent on marrying her off to an undesirable English marquess. The growing talk of war in Europe further complicates matters and forces her to make sacrifices she never imagined. On her 21st birthday, Libby must choose one path and forfeit the other forever—but how can she possibly choose when she has so much to lose in each life?

Wow, just wow! This book hooks you right from the start! I listened on Audible, and enjoyed the narrator very much. The book jumps right in with Libby who lives in 1774 Colonial Williamsburg and when she falls asleep there, she awakes in 1914 New York City’s Gilded Age. But she’s the same person living two lives. Each chapter then goes back and forth! Such an interesting way to do the dual time-line and the history in both was well researched and kept you turning the pages! The days, weeks, months flow smoothly and quickly, and as her 21st birthday approaches, she has decisions to make. Which life will she choose? I really enjoyed listening to this book and can’t wait for the sequel!!

Wonderful, different, historical -narrator good too

While I surmised the subplot well in advance, I found the way the author brought it all about to be very well done. I could not have imagined how she could tie so many loose ends so well.

Enjoyable read

This book was absolutely amazing, so many twists and turns, so different! Amazing history about pre-revolution and pre-WW II for America. As you listen, you feel like you are there with Libby every day and feel every emotion she lives through as we look for God’s plan in her life This was my second listen and it was just as amazing as the first. Now I’m ready to listen to the sequel! (May 2023)

Very good

Story line was interesting and I thought it was going to be boring. Instead I really enjoyed the jumping back between two different eras. Also liked the input of the historical information of the American Revolution and WW I.
I may check out other books by author since her writing is different from my usual read.

Enjoyable story line about two different eras.
