For a Lifetime by Gabrielle Meyer

 

For a Lifetime   by Gabrielle Meyer  390 pages

Identical twin sisters Grace and Hope are time-crossers who simultaneously live in 1692, as daughters of a tavern owner during the Salem Witch Trials, and in 1912, as an aviatrix and a journalist. As their twenty-fifth birthday approaches, they will each have to choose one life to keep and one to leave behind forever--no matter the cost.

Third book in the series and another very interesting story.  This time period was not as interesting to me, they were alive during the Salem Witch Trials.  But I did learn more about the time period. I loved the difference of the twins and their lives and how it all intertwined them together.

In This Moment by Gabrielle Meyer

 

In This Moment   by Gabrielle Meyer  390 pages

Margaret Hollingsworth inherited a gift from her time-crossing parents that allows her to live three separate lives in 1861 Washington D.C., 1941 Pearl Harbor, and 2001 Washington D.C.. 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. She faces a difficult journey to discover her true self, while drawn to three worthy gentlemen. With so much on the line, how can Maggie choose just one life to keep and the rest to lose?

This is book two in the series.  I really don't like time travel books, but this is a time slipping book.  I didn't think I would like it, but I am hooked on this series.  The series continues with the children of the character from the last book.  So, it is not a continuation of the same person, but the next generation and the time periods are different.  I really enjoyed this one because the time periods were 1871, 1941 and 2001 which were very important times in war history.  The author does a great job using real people as well as made up characters.  She also makes sure they are historically accurate.

When the Day Comes by Gabrielle Meyer


 When the Day Comes  by Gabrielle Meyer  373 pages

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. On her twenty-first birthday, Libby must choose one path and forfeit the other--but how can she possibly decide when she has so much to lose?

I am not a time-travel reader most of the time, but I thought I would try this one since I love Historical Fiction.  This book was set in 1774-1776 and then she travels to 1914.  I really became invested in this book and couldn't put it down. She even met George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.  She is a printer so she helped publish the Federalist Papers.  I was so upset about the decision she made but the ending was awesome!! I can't wait to read the next book in the series.
