For a Lifetime

Timeless, Book 3

De: Gabrielle Meyer

Narrado por: Rachel Botchan

Grace and Hope are identical twin sisters born with the ability to time-cross together between 1692 Salem, Massachusetts, and 1912 New York City. As their twenty-fifth birthday approaches, they will have to choose one life to keep and one to leave behind forever—no matter the cost.

In 1692, they live and work in their father's tavern, where they must watch helplessly as the witch trials unfold in their village, threatening everyone. With the help of a handsome childhood friend, they search for the truth behind their mother's mysterious death, risking everything to expose a secret that could save their lives—or be their undoing.

In 1912, Hope dreams of becoming one of the first female pilots in America, and Grace works as an investigative journalist, uncovering corruption and injustice. After their parents' orphanage is threatened by an adversary, they enter a contest to complete a perilous cross-country flight under the guidance of a daring French aviator.

The sisters have already decided which timeline they will choose, but an unthinkable tragedy complicates the future they planned for themselves. As their birthday looms, how will they determine the lives—and loves—that are best for both of them?

Wonderful and intriguing story

I have loved every book in this series! Very clean and well written. A series like no other.

Witches

I grew up in Salem MA. It was exciting to hear another version, although fiction yet non fiction.
Loved the 1900’s also. Great combination of stories, intertwined with 2 twin sisters. Kudos

Engaging!

I have enjoyed the Timeless Series with this being the third book. The author does a good job researching the time periods and sharing with her readers many unknown facts. Early aviation in the early 1910’s and how dangerous it was and the Salem Witch Trials in the late 1600’s.

I thought the narrator did an excellent job with the different accents and dialects. Very talented!

Pulled me in instantly!

I'm enjoying this series so much. Each book has pulled me in instantly and kept me engaged the whole time, and with each new character Gabrielle Meyer explores different possibilities for the time crossing concept.

I really liked switching between Grace and Hope's perspectives, and I felt very invested in both characters. I also appreciated the way the Salem witch trials were handled- not an easy topic, and seeing how Grace and Hope processed their 17th century realty with their 20th century perspectives was interesting.

The narration is also top notch.

For historical fiction with an excellent twist, I recommend this series wholeheartedly.

Great book

I have really enjoyed all 3 books in this series. I hope there will be more in the future.

Engaging listening!

This got me to research more about the Salem Witch trial. Clever time travel sprinkled with romance and mixed with adventure.

Fascinating and suspensful.

Twins time crossing together. Another twist to time crossing. I very much enjoy theses books and wonder which time I would choose if I had a choice. (I think I'd choose the more modern of any paths.)

Complex story

The creative and complex storyline, with historical fiction. The characters are well developed. The story is not predictable and keeps you wondering.

Excellent Time Crosser Fiction

Narration was very good with a few occasional skips. I did find that the male character with a French accent was kind of annoying. I'm a hearing-impaired person, so I felt like the audio was well done with a clear tone of voice which is important with a hearing loss.

Five Stars! The Timeless series is unique in that the characters do change time periods but it’s on a daily basis as “time crossers” and they’re not stuck in a particular time period. When they become a certain age, they may choose which time period they wish to remain in. With one conscious mind, they go to sleep in one era and wake up in the other. This time we have identical twins that cross between 1692 Salem during the witch trials and 1912 when female aviators were trying to make their mark even though aviation was really still in its infancy. It’s really hard to write a review on this series without spoilers. Casting identical twins that are extremely close really ratchets up the chances for interesting scenarios to come about. I am very anxious to read the next segment in this series!
This is book three in the timeless series that I highly recommend, but it can definitely be read as a stand-alone (but I DO recommend the rest of the series, it’s fantastic!). Gabrielle Meyer has an excellent backlist and has some historical, cozy mysteries and Love Inspired titles. She is also a winner of the coveted Christy Award. I have only read the first three books of this series, but she is incredibly talented and I plan to peruse her reading list.

love this series...well written and researched

I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and the history they lived.

My only complaint about the series is the reader!
she lowers her voice and mumbles, when she switches to a male voice.
I have hearing aids, but still have to adjust volume so frequently, it's annoying.
Some sounds do not come through at all during the voice muffling and lowering.
I noticed this in the other books. It is only now I finally say something about it.
Readers know the same woman is speaking all voices, but we need to hear the content clearly spoken.

By all means, do read the book, it is as good as the first two. I am hoping for another story..
