A Victorian Visitor

A Time Travel Historical Romance (The Back Inn Time Series, Book 7)

De: Stephenia H. McGee

Narrado por: Bryn Austin

He never asked for a blind date—especially not one from 1864.

If Connor Payne had known his grandfather was up to a matchmaking scheme on their weekend trip to a quirky B&B, he would have stayed home on the farm. But it turns out his accommodations come not with a blind date, but a trip to 1864—with a war on the doorstep and no idea how to get home. Rescuing a stubborn beauty and her grandfather from the burning of Atlanta was not on his weekend agenda. Now getting her to safety might mean dragging her through time… and into a future neither of them understands.

Amanda Lashley never imagined the ticking clocks in her grandfather’s shop could signal the end of everything she’s ever known. But when two strangers arrive out of nowhere and insist they must leave immediately, she makes a choice that catapults her into a world of strange customs, dazzling inventions, and impossible surprises. Now stuck in a future she never asked for, Amanda must find her footing, her courage—and maybe even her heart.

Lovely stories

I love all of the Books in the series. The stows are always interesting and entertaining. I love the innocence of the characters

This One Fell Flat

The recording and narration, was fairly good. on the same par with the other books. For the story, however, the last several books I thoroughly enjoyed but there were several things I didn't like this time.
1. I felt she pressed her characters into acclimating to progressive modern thoughts and ways too quickly, with very little struggle. I appreciated that the character who time jumped in book 4 had months to become accustomed to her new life before the book ended. This time the characters only had a few days. Not everyone prefers comfort to propriety even in the modern age. I doubt someone from the past would jump onto the comfort band waggon so easily. As far as scandal is concerned: while many behaviors such as immodesty and modern relationships are acceptable now, it does not mean they are morally right nor that a person from the past would dismiss being surrounded by those things let alone take part in them without drawing a line. Even if modern readers see nothing wrong with wearing pants or being at the beach surrounded by naked people, people of the past would most likely refuse to wear such things, even if a host is offering them, or stay at a beach crowded with indecently clad people even if she's not being indecent herself.
2. This one had to much political rhetoric in it. while the facts are essentially correct. The authors word choices made it feel like there should be a negative viewpoint on current events or even past ones. I understand a story like this would need some consideration in these areas, but she labored on the offense, putting pressure on the reader to think a certain way.
3. The author projected certain assumptions about how relationships worked in the 1800s as opposed to modern day. She gave her 1800s characters certain mindsets that had modern thought avenues to them. this was another thing I felt her characters adjusted too easily to as well. furthermore, she made it seem as though God is silent on the area of learning whether entering a relationship is his will or not. The characters were more caught up in how they felt, and when the gentleman was trying to seek God in his devotions, it's as though the Bible had no immediate answers to his conundrum. I can think of plenty of principles from purposefully written stories about the topic. The characters came to know by just knowing somehow, and Carter's knowing was solidified with a kiss. the answers didn't come through prayer or seeking God as much as they came from things surrounding them. while there was a good line of counsel about fear from a grandpa, that was about all that recommended a biblical way to find out what God wanted.
