Description

Three years ago, Rosalind Courtenay stumbled from the nineteenth century to the twenty-first, where she has been trapped ever since, leaving her husband and infant son behind. Now she’s found her way back.
The problem, of course, is how to explain her absence to her husband. Does he think she abandoned him? Has he remarried? Is he happy in a new life? Rosalind decides to don a disguise in hopes of answering her questions before showing up on his doorstep. Instead, a twist of fate has her mistaken for her young son’s new governess.
Rosalind has every intention of revealing herself as soon as August returns home from business. Until then, she’ll get to know her son, a quiet child who has inexplicably been abandoned by an endless stream of governesses. That’s when the hauntings begin. Rosalind has finally come home and something—or someone—doesn’t just want her gone. They want her dead.

    I’ve been a huge fan of Kelley’s when I first read Bitten from the Otherworld series. She has such a talent for pulling you into her stories and having such detail, you can really envision yourself in her world. I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about this series since I hadn’t read the first book. Trust me when I say you don’t need to read the first, but be prepared to want to. Rosalind is relatable and I found myself miffed, enamored, and sad in her journey. Now I’m finding myself happily in another series and I can’t wait until the next book.

    A Twist of Fate by Kelley Armstrong 2nd book in A Stitch in Time series. Paranormal romance with time travel and ghosts. Can be read as a stand-alone but better as part of the series in order. Rosalind accidentally falls through the time-slip in Thorne Manor and it takes several years for her to figure out how to return home to her husband and son. Those years have passed at the same rate and when she finally does return her son is five. He thinks she died while her husband refuses to “see” beyond his business duties. Rosalind becomes the governess to try to find a way back to her family. But someone doesn’t want Rosalind in the house and tries to scare her away. Engrossing and thrilling. A little suspense and a lot of character growth. Edmund is so reticent for five years old. I wanted to hug him and was glad to see him become comfortable with Rosalind. Husband August had jealousy issues when Rosalind accidentally left him. It was gratifying to see him playing with his son. I won’t say more for spoilers. William and Bronwyn (from book 1 and 1.5) return to help Rosalind. I loved this story so much. I will definitely be watching for the next book in the series.
