Caroline holds a deep secret. Living in 1727 and 1927 simultaneously, each night she goes to sleep in one life and wakes up in the other. In search of answers to her unique existence, Caroline stumbles upon a letter from her mother hinting at her own experiences as a time-crosser, sending Caroline on a daring quest to uncover the truth. In 1727, Caroline disguises herself as a cabin boy and joins a ship sailing for the Bahamas, her mother's last known location, where she crosses paths with a ruthless but handsome pirate and is caught in a web of secrets, deception, and unexpected alliances.

In 1927 St. Paul, Minnesota, Caroline grapples with her other life as the daughter of a renowned preacher. Her two older brothers have fallen prey to the corruption rampant during Prohibition, and Caroline struggles to keep their involvement hidden to save her father's career. As her search for answers about her time-crossing leads her to the dangerous yet exciting world of speakeasies, Caroline enlists the help of a childhood friend who is now a police officer. But with her family's future at risk and their loyalties tested, Caroline faces a life-altering decision that could reshape her destiny.

Even though Across the Ages by Gabrielle Meyer had a beautiful ending, I hope the author continues this series as I enjoy these romps through time far too much!

Throughout this book I kept asking myself, what would I do if I lived two lives like Caroline? Would I choose to stay in the time when the convenience of things like hot water, cars and electricity made life easier? Or would I choose love and give up all that? I have read all the books in this series and I knew Caroline would have to choose before her 21st birthday. And this is where this book takes a different path - Caroline doesn’t know a thing about the time-travelling rules and throughout the book you are biting your nails hoping she figures it out fast as the days get closer to her birthday. I could not put this book down!

The romance was awesome, as was the faith element. The message of redemption was well done, and I appreciated it. 

While this book can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend you buy all three books. Why deprive yourself of this incredible series? I highly recommend it!

I received a complimentary copy courtesy of Bethany House Publishers through NetGalley for my honest review.
