✨ my first time reading a time-travel romance sprinkled with a dash of mystery and I’m surprised by how much I enjoyed it ✨

I’ll start off by saying that if you haven’t read book one in the series then please do! Even though this can be read as a stand alone, it will help build up characters and the world you’re about to be thrown into more clearly. If you’re a fan of suspense then this book definitely does the trick, jumping from the 21st century to the regency era really made for an enjoyable and captivating read and the characters absolutely held my attention. I love how Linore wrote Margaret to be so relatable and then when we read about her experiencing new things and overcoming obstacles to find love, it makes it even more heartwarming and endearing. This book features adventure, sacrifice and love which will make you want to keep on reading 💫

*thank you NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review*

This was a fast paced read with some witty, fun characters and a nice development.
However, I believe this book is ideal for just a certain target. While I enjoy regency and time travel books, I believe it's necesary to add the religious undertones the story uses as part of the summary, so the reader can open their minds to it. Making the mistake of omitting such an important part of the story can drive away new readers. I enjoyed this nonetheless.

As the regency characters would say, a delightful and diverting novel. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and would like to see more from this author. Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for giving me a copy of the book.

While Forever Lovely is technically the second book in a series it reads like a standalone. Or at least I didn't feel like I was missing anything from the first book. I'm a sucker for time-travel novels even though I'm not a huge Outlander fan. What sets this book apart from other time traveler novels is the fact that the heroine travels to future from Jane Austen's England. And meets our hero a 21st Century student who low and behold is studying female writers from the time period she's form. And since I love a good nerdy hero he was perfect for me.



As a reader I've found it hard to find regency set novels written by modern authors that I enjoy or feel like they are written well. I guess my program is that I keep comparing modern authors to Austen. But Forever Lovely by Linore Rose Burkard comes pretty close. And I look forward to reading the first book in this series, as well as other books by this author.






I received a copy of this book from the author I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are mine alone.

To anyone who loves time travel and especially time travel with 100% on point historical accuracy needs to read this time travel romance. Ever since Margaret Anderson‘s sister went to live in the future she has wanted her cousin Julian St. John to bring her there. Margaret Anderson is an 18-year-old blue stocking, Spencer, wallflower she has no prospects and even her inheritance is going to the closest male relative so her future is dubious. Ever since her distant aunt bought a prayer shawl in Israel and time traveled back to the 1800s then met and married Margaret’s uncle the marquee they had time travel in their family but this time when Mr. St. John brings Margaret to the future instead of showing up outside of the cottage in Oregon they show up in New York City and hijinks ensue. She’s excited to see her sister Celia who is a historical romance author in the future and is married the due to circumstances the plan goes awry and I haven’t even mentioned that Julian‘s wife Claire is going to deliver the first child in 1814 any day now. After showing up in front of the New York library Mr. St. John even tries to bring them back to the past and home but unfortunately this Joel doesn’t work anymore or at least not for Margaret. I want to say so much about this book but don’t want to give anything away what I will say is this was a great book and although there was a lot going on I loved all of it the author is not only funny she’s so historically accurate is it she herself time traveled I love history and historical romances and have never read a book that was so accurate and on point that I found no fault with the details. I cannot say enough how great the story was how entertaining and humorous and just one more time for prosperity how historically accurate this book is… Oh I love it! I am definitely going to download more of her regency books and cannot wait to get into it I only hope I make it to work on time lol! I want to thank books go social and net galley for my free Ark copy please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review.
