Publisher's summary

Will is my fiance. The shy man I met years ago in college. The person I'm supposed to spend the rest of my life with. This is the life I've always wanted until finding a picture of four men changes everything....

Étienne says he's my husband and the year is 1912. He can't stand the sight of me, but I don't know why. Oh, and he's one of the men from the picture.

I've done the impossible and have become trapped in time and I know Étienne is my key to going home.

The more time I spend with Étienne, the further I fall for him until I'm questioning which time I belong in and if the life I left behind is the one I truly desire.

All I know for certain is I need to survive time. I need to survive love.

And I need to make it out on the other side alive.

Contains mature themes.

Love this series!!

I’ve been waiting for these books to go to audio and they didn’t disappoint. The narrators did an amazing job bringing this book to life. I can’t wait for the other ones!

Good read! Starting 2nd book now

Author did a great job with character development. I was drawn in quickly and wrapped in attention. Finished the book in a couple of days. It’s very entertaining I recommend it. I definitely plan on reading all three books..

Great book!!

I would have given this a complete five star rating, but for the language. I am very much looking forward to listening to the rest of the series. I hesitated to read this book because of the reviews I read about the ending, but I loved the ending! Going straight to the next book.

The Downside of This Series

There is only one downside of listening to a series as good as this one. Something else has to come after. It's going to take me a good two weeks to halfway enjoy another book. I didn't even mind the bits of French. I thought it added to getting attached to the story. Serene had no idea what he was saying. I had no idea what he was saying. And neither one of us cared.

Loved the whole 6-book Series!

Surviving Time through Belgrave Dynasty is so enjoyable! My absolute favorite is the beginning of the series! Narrator’s are very good with great mix male with Mr. Lloyd as Étienne. Would love to see this series in a movie. Thank you Ms. Read - delightful, please continue the Belgrave story!

Great Storyline

I loved this book! The entire story was amazing and the narration by the authors was wonderful. They did an excellent job making the story realistic. Cant wait to listen to the next one.

The sample scooped me in!!

I was pulled into the story instantly! Grea
t narration, great premise but I had two problems I could not get past.
1) a woman who sells antiques and is a history buff absolutely refuses to Immerse herself into the culture, the time and place and clothes she now find herself. She acts like a total idiot and it annoying
2)the use of “d*ck and p*ssy” in the sex scenes was terribly cringy.

Timeless captivating book!!

This book is one of my all time favorites. I’m so happy I came across it on audible!! The story is woven so perfectly and the descriptions of 18th century Charleston make me want to go back in time!!

At one point in this series Selene goes to the Lacroix house in real time and the house she lived at (18th century) is now in ruins which was so devastating because the story pulls you into the time period that much. It is a historical romance at heart but such a good book all round!! The performance was great as well but I do wish the voices were a bit younger, as others have mentioned.

I have a long list of books I enjoy but it’s rare to find one that’s truly impactful. This is one I would read again and again. I would recommend this book!!

Loved every part

Why doesn’t this have more reads? The story line, the narratives, the epilogue, are better than other more popular series I’ve read.
The only thing to caution is some parts are very adult explicit. Some may not like it. I would be good either way. It’s could have been written without certain words, using more PC wording. But if you compare it to most movies now days, it still had less.
I wouldn’t call it erotica, because there are only 3 scenes like that.

AMAZING

this story had me on the edge of my seat , I felt every emotion , one after the other . I couldn't put it down .
