This series has been an incredible journey! I can't even begin to put into words how much I have loved it. It will be a lifetime favorite, of that I have no doubt! Thankful to have been on the author's launch team for the book. The publisher sent me the paperback for review.
Summary:
Two siblings. One fate. A web of secrets that could ensnare them in an inescapable destiny.
In 1883, Charles is a poor farmer desperate to secure financial stability for his mother and sister, as he is unsure which of his time-crossing paths he will choose on his twenty-fifth birthday. Posing as the Earl of Norfolk, he enters the opulent circles of Newport's elite to assist a fellow time-crossing friend, Drew. But suspicions of his identity arise among the upper crust, and his encounters with Drew's intriguing sister further complicate decisions that could impact a lifetime.
In 1563, Lady Cecily serves Queen Elizabeth while clinging to the hope that her stepbrother Charles will remain with her in this path. As the true Earl of Norfolk, Charles is deeply entangled in the deadly politics of the court. When he brings Drew, a physician in training, to Windsor Castle to help save the ailing monarch, old feelings for Drew rekindle in Cecily's heart, but her love faces impossible odds under the strict rules of the crown. As their futures hang by a thread, Charles and Cecily race to prevent their web of secrets from unraveling and ensnaring them in an inescapable destiny.

My Review:
I'm pretty positive it will be impossible to write a review that will convey all that I thought and loved about Through Each Tomorrow. Honestly, nearly anything I say could give away spoilers. My mind is still reeling from all of the twists and turns this story took.
The author's writing and creativity shine through on this story, just like she did with the previous five! There were a lot of emotions throughout the story. From the characters AND from me! Charles made me want to throw hands. He drove me absolutely nuts! Drew, on the other hand, gave me all of the heart eyes! Is it sad I would've preferred him to have been the MMC? lol Charles wormed his way into my good graces thankfully.
Cecily was a wonderful character with a sad history. My heart went out to her throughout the story! I could say the same about Drew's sister, Evelyn. She's prickly at first, ask Charles, but like him, she softens my heart after a bit. Both Cecily and Evelyn tugged at my heart strings!
I'm struggling here because I want to talk about this and that, and oh my goodness, can you believe this happened, but it's impossible. All of the side characters factor strongly into both time periods. I do have to say, I felt like I needed to start taking notes to keep everyone straight. And I don't mean that in a bad way. If you've read the rest of the series, you know how it is.
The faith aspect was wonderful. We make our plans, but God directs our steps, which the characters really had to come to grips with. The faith thread was a natural part of the story which made it flow as part of it.
I know this is a lot of vague information! Read the story and we can talk. You'll completely understand why I couldn't breathe a word of what was between the pages!
