Description
It Was Always Her is a gripping tale about love, sacrifice, and the impossible choices faced by a man given a second chance. This story will take you on a captivating journey which will leave you asking, “What do I value most in my life?”
"Our lives are spent building castles in the sand. Large or small, grandiose or simple, it is inconsequential—all washed away when the tide comes in. Nothing lasts. Nothing endures. To love and be loved, it is the only thing that is real...the only thing that matters to me now."

It is rare to find a novel that merge genres and themes successfully. Yet,
Author J.L. Witterick has accomplished exactly that. Her clean and comfortable writing style effortlessly weaves a romantic story with science fiction. The plot moves along from beat to beat seamlessly - chapters are short, sweet, and purposeful.
The flow of this story is balanced with keeping it tightly bound together. Purple prose, something that drags down so many other works I've read in recent times, is notably absent here. Having perspectives from different characters also gives depth to the story. Bruce, Rachel and their love which spans two lifetimes take the stage front and center…as it should. Time travel can be a tricky topic to explore, but it's done in a very approachable and accessible manner here.
This novel reminds me of why I love to discover new books. It Was Always Her captures "feel" in a memorable, and brilliant way.

I'm a huge fan of time travel stories, and romances, and this book combines both. I absolutely loved every second of this twisty story, and am excited to buy a copy for myself!

I received this book as an ARC and this is my review. Changing the course of history to right a perceived wrong or to alter an outcome is always an adventurous idea. This book grabs this concept and hangs on. The characters are interesting and their actions shake things up! I totally recommend this story to readers who enjoy time travel interwoven with historical perspective.

I love historical time travel stories - and this book is no exception. Tom Waites (Bruce Meyer) goes back in time from 2025 to 1985 to stop what could be World War 3. Rachel, a girl he met in 1985 must marry Jack Campbell, the President in 2025. But, Tom is in love with Rachel - but, she has to marry Jack to not alter the future.
This was a page-turner for me. The twist and turns kept me reading into the wee hours of the morning. It is a story of sacrifices and love and making decisions that benefit more than just yourself. I highly recommend this for readers who love time travel stories!
