What is this book about?

Maggie inherited a gift from her time-crossing parents that allows her to live three separate lives in 1861, 1941, and 2001. Each night, she goes to sleep in one time period and wakes up in another. Until she turns twenty-one, when she will have to forfeit two of those lives–and everyone she knows in them–forever.

In 1861, Maggie is the daughter of a senator at the outbreak of the Civil War, navigating a capital full of Southern spies and wounded soldiers. In 1941, she is a navy nurse, grappling with her knowledge of the future when she joins a hospital ship going to Pearl Harbor. And in 2001, she’s a brilliant young medical student, fulfilling her dream of becoming a surgeon.

While Maggie has sworn off romance until she makes her final choice, an intriguing man tugs at her heart in each era, only complicating the impossible decision she must make, which looms ever closer. With so much on the line, how can Maggie choose just one life to keep and the rest to lose?

My review:

The premise of this book and the series was so unique for Christian fiction. The storytelling was done so well. Each timeframe Maggie lived held good reasons for her to choose that life. I had my preference but watching her struggle with the decision kept me turning the pages.

Even though Maggie had the same gift as her mom, the heroine of book one, her personality and the twists in her lives were very different. There was a hint for book three that promises even more twists.

Best of all was the sweet romance(s) that made Maggie’s decision more difficult. Loved this story.

What I enjoyed most about this book:

Page turning – what life would Maggie choose?

What I didn’t like about this book:

Nothing

Would I recommend this book to others? Absolutely. The premise of this series is so unique to Christian fiction, the characters are interesting, and the romances are sweet. This is the second book in the series. I recommend reading book one beforehand.
