This book was not what I thought it was going to be. For some reason I thought this was a mystery/thriller and went into the book with those notions. Surprisingly, it was a historical fiction with time travel! How fun!! The description is 100% accurate- had I read it. Either way, this is not my typical genre but I really enjoyed it. I wished for more at the end. I wanted more adventures, more between the two main characters at the end (if you've read it you know). I was sad it ended.
Josephine Reynolds is still grieving her husband's death, life doesn't seem to move forward without him. Jo is depressed and decided a change of scenery would do her good. Seeing that her great grandmother's historical home was up for auction after her lowly uncle lost it to the bank. Josephine buys the house and first order of business is to change the front door back to its original glory. Somehow Josephine stumbles upon the original door, but it's more than just a door- it's a portal to 1927! There she meets her great grandmother Alma. The rest of the story unfolds in the speakeasy beneath the house.
A solid 4 ⭐️ from me. I feel like some of the details could have been more thought out concerning the time travel but I can see why the author didn't want to focus too much on the mechanics of time travel. I really loved the ending too. I won't give out any spoilers but I enjoyed it.
I would read more stories like this. I am not a romance fan but I was for this title! I really loved the relationships in this book as well as the entire cast of characters. I would have loved even more description of the scenery- mostly
Because I love the timeline and the setting so much!
I highly recommend the audio version of this title. The narrator's voice was smooth and read all the character 's voices so well, it really elevated the story. U could feel the roaring 20's come to life. The book read smooth and the transitions between chapters was smooth.
Thank you @netgalley and @harpermuseaudio

I absolutely loved this book. There is nothing better than a cozy time travel story. This was such a cozy heartwarming read. I really enjoyed this audiobook and look forward to reading more by Jennifer Moorman.
