REBECCA'S REVIEW:
"In 1563, I was the Earl of Norfolk, an esteemed and respected member of Queen Elizabeth's privy council, and the heir of Arundel Castle."
Time-crosser Charles Hollingsworth lived a privileged life in his 1563 path as a member of Queen Elizabeth's inner circle, as opposed to his path in 1883 where he was struggling to maintain his family's once prestigious horse farm. For fellow crosser Andrew Bromley, his opportunities were just the opposite, he was a common laborer outside of the queen's court in 1563 while occupying a position of prominence as the sole heir of an enormous shipping company in 1883. The two friends devise a risky scheme to aid their positions in their pathway of choice while potentially ruining or securing the futures of two most beloved sisters.
To mention that I was on the proverbial "edge-of-my-seat" through-out this story would be a vast understatement. The author's ingenuity in this space is matchless, or better yet, "timeless".
" . . . I was done trying to manipulate Him (God) and His plans. It was time to surrender my own will and start to trust His. Come what may."

PAULA'S REVIEW
I am still in awe at this wonderful concept of time-crossing in book six of the Timeless series by Gabrielle Meyer. Through Each Tomorrow shows the impeccable research the author has done to give us the court of Elizabeth I and Newport, Rhode Island in the Gilded Age.

PAULA'S REVIEW
I am still in awe at this wonderful concept of time-crossing in book six of the Timeless series by Gabrielle Meyer. Through Each Tomorrow shows the impeccable research the author has done to give us the court of Elizabeth I and Newport, Rhode Island in the Gilded Age.
Friends Charles and Andrew discover that they are both time-crossers in 1563 and 1883 but their places in society are switched in each. In 1563 Charles is a Lord and Andrew is lowborn. In 1883 Andrew is wealthy and of high society while Charles is an impoverished horse farmer. The complications begin when Andrew asks Charles to pose as a Lord in 1883 in order to impress the Astors. They each think they have decided in which time period to remain when they reach their 25th birthdays. But circumstances may take those decisions from them.
As always, the characters realize that ultimately it is God who orders their lives. “Trusting God did not mean I would not have heartache, but it did mean that I needed to lean on Him and follow the path He has laid before me.”
The author packs a lot into these stories. Each chapter alternated time periods and I could not turn pages fast enough. The stories were that compelling. I am glad there will be 10 books in total but I will be sorry to see this series end.

Two siblings. One fate. A web of secrets that could ensnare them in an inescapable destiny.
In 1883, Charles is a poor farmer desperate to secure financial stability for his mother and sister, as he is unsure which of his time-crossing paths he will choose on his twenty-fifth birthday. Posing as the Earl of Norfolk, he enters the opulent circles of Newport's elite to assist a fellow time-crossing friend, Drew. But suspicions of his identity arise among the upper crust, and his encounters with Drew's intriguing sister further complicate decisions that could impact a lifetime.
In 1563, Lady Cecily serves Queen Elizabeth while clinging to the hope that her stepbrother Charles will remain with her in this path. As the true Earl of Norfolk, Charles is deeply entangled in the deadly politics of the court. When he brings Drew, a physician in training, to Windsor Castle to help save the ailing monarch, old feelings for Drew rekindle in Cecily's heart, but her love faces impossible odds under the strict rules of the crown. As their futures hang by a thread, Charles and Cecily race to prevent their web of secrets from unraveling and ensnaring them in an inescapable destiny.
