What is this book about?
As a time-crosser, Ally lives in two worlds. In 1849, in an attempt to secure her family’s future during the California Gold Rush, she finds herself penniless and stranded in San Francisco. Forced to take shelter in a dangerous boardinghouse owned by an infamous gang member, Ally is desperate to escape. But when she discovers that history has changed around her, and it now claims she will do something unthinkable, she must use her time-crossing knowledge to find answers.
In 1929, Ally is an up-and-coming starlet during the Golden Age of Hollywood, but her family’s film studio is on the brink of ruin, and their remaining resources are invested into a production of Little Women. If the endeavor fails, Ally’s family will lose everything. To ensure their success, she agrees to stage a fake romance with a notorious Hollywood heartthrob in hopes of using his fame for their movie, but she risks her heart in the process. When history doesn’t play by the rules, Ally must decide if she will throw all caution aside and risk everything for the people she loves. But which path will be worth sacrificing to save the other?
My review:
This series is a “pre-order to keeper shelf” every time a new book releases. I am absolutely in awe of how this author still keeps me hooked and riveted even now with book 7. There were still twists and turns that I didn’t expect as well as swoony romance. This story does get more into the logistics of the time-crossing, which I liked learning about. The historical details for both timelines were very immersive. Highly recommend.
What I enjoyed most about this book:
The romance – no surprise for me, but very satisfying
What I didn’t like about this book:
Gotta wait for the author to write the next one
Would I recommend this book to others? Absolutely. There are no other stories out there quite like this series. Lots of interesting characters, immersive historical details, page turning conflict, and sweet, swoony romance. This is the seventh book in the series. I recommend reading the series in order to avoid spoilers.
