About this listen
Three years ago, Rosalind Courtenay stumbled from the 19th century to the 21st, 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.

Happy for the 2nd book to continue the series
I was very interested to see how the 2nd book would be intertwined with the 1st novel, and while this book is not quite as engaging as the this 1st one I was still moved to listen to it in one sitting.
If you like gothic novels like The Turn of the Screw, Rebecca, or Jane Eyre this book series will be up your ally. Will this novel be heralded is great literature as the aforementioned probably not but is is a fun enjoyable ride and worth a credit.
The 2nd book follow the disappearance of Rosalind the wife of August Courtenay. The Courtenay's live on a neighboring estate to Thorne Manor the home of William Thorne best friend of August . Thorne Manor the main setting for book 1 of the series is the epicenter of the "Time Stitch" that allows for people to travel between the 19th century and the 21st century. Rosalind is sucked through this rip in time unbeknownst to her husband. She is trapped in the 21 century for 4 to 5 years until she can return to her own time, this is where to heart of the story starts complete with a haunting.
My one pet peeve with the story is that we are told Rosalind is not impulsive that she studies and weights her options and this is how she is able to acclimate to the 21st century so much so we owns her own bakery business in just 5 years (never mind she would not have any personal documents or identification in this new time, but this is a fun book so I will let that go. . .). However, when she is faced with the key information of how to return to her home in the 19th century instead of doing the easy thing, the measured and sensible thing she act without thought. It is really this action that allows for much of the misunderstandings that are to follow. I dislike when a character takes actions that are out of character just so you can get them from point A to point B.
So while this book is not plotted as well as the the first is it still enjoyable and I look forward to more books in the series.

Feel Good Novel
Kelley Armstrong is my favourite author and I will read anything she puts out. I was afraid near the beginning that this book might be a bit too cheesy or unbelievable, but by the end, I felt everything came together. I also loved having a feminist narrator in the 1800s, a time in which women were not treated anywhere near as well. The narrator was amazing too, and my only issue came with her Canadian accent (as a Canadian myself), but considering Bronwyn’s part in this book was small, it didn’t bother me too much. I loved the mystery and thrilling aspects of this book as well.

Narrator not as good as 1st novel
This narrator is too monotone. She rushes the the story and lacks the inflection necessary to keep you engrossed so I kept tuning out and having to restart the chapter or backup 30-80 seconds.

Very wordy
I enjoyed this story, but it was predictable and not fleshed out enough. Way too many flighty words.

Zero Spice but Excellent Mystery
Book one of the series had a decent amount of spice with well written characters and plot. Then, the Novella was a complete let down in the spice department, so it is no surprise there is zero spice for the second novel. The story is very well written and I highly recommend it, if you are looking for a good Victorian Mystery. If you are looking for an Adult Victorian Spice Novel, this is NOT it.

Good Read
I enjoy paranormal stories with romance, and this was not a disappointment. Some parts got monotonous and the reader sounded very gloomy, but overall, I enjoyed the escape I look for in books.
