When tragedy strikes Michele Windsor’s world, she is forced to uproot her life and move across the country to New York City, to live with the wealthy, aristocratic grandparents she’s never met. In their old Fifth Avenue mansion filled with a century’s worth of family secrets, Michele discovers a diary that hurtles her back in time to the year 1910. There, in the midst of the glamorous Gilded Age, Michele meets the young man with striking blue eyes who has haunted her dreams all her life – a man she always wished was real, but never imagined could actually exist. And she finds herself falling for him, into an otherworldly, time-crossed romance.
Michele is soon leading a double life, struggling to balance her contemporary high school world with her escapes into the past. But when she stumbles upon a terrible discovery, she is propelled on a race through history to save the boy she loves – a quest that will determine the fate of both of their lives.

When I started this book, I wasn’t sure if I would really enjoy it. The first few pages just felt flat, and I thought that it would probably end up being a painful book. Yet, it didn’t take long before I was really into the story. I can enjoy time-travel novel, but at first I wasn’t sure if I could believe in it in this story. Yet, Alexandra Monir made it completely believable, and quite enjoyable. The ending was surprising to me. First, I wasn’t aware that the book had a sequel coming out in the future. I thought it was a stand-alone. That’s why the ending really surprised me. I was sure there would the ending and that’s all. The story would be done. Nop! There is much coming up for Michele, and Monir wants you to know!
The characters were great when it came down to the two main characters. I liked Michele in the end, even if she kind of annoyed me at first. Philip was kind of dreamy, but kind of awkward also. I don’t know, there just was something off at certain moments. The grandparents creep me out. I wouldn’t want them as mine, that’s for sure. I thought Cassie was kind of too nice with Michele, backing her even though Michele wasn’t really friendly with her at first. My favorite character was Lily. I wish we could have seen more of her.
The writing was fun and easy to read. I’m excited about the sequel, and I can’t wait to read more from her.
I would give it a good 4/5, because it was a captivating and entertaining book for me.
This sounds really interesting! I'm definitely going to check it out, adding to TBR:) Thanks!
