In This Moment

 

Back Cover

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?

Review

It's a rare occurrence when I finish a novel and want to reread it again right away. But along came In this Moment and every time I look at it (because I haven't yet stored it away in my bookcase), I want to dive into this amazing story all over again.

I loved the first book in the Timeless series, When the Day Comes, and didn't think it would be possible for the sequel to be better than the first. But goodness gracious, In This Moment is arguably one of my favourite reads of all time. I LOVED it. It's such a unique time-travel concept, and, don't call me crazy, but it almost feels believable. Maggie is a wonderful heroine and Gabrielle Meyer chose the perfect time periods as America is on the cusp of war in each of Maggie's lifetimes, making for a thrilling and suspenseful read.

Engaging, thought-provoking, and heartfelt, In This Moment is the perfect continuation of the Timeless series. I'm so excited that there will be two more books in this family time-traveling saga.
