Escape into this time travel romance series by #1 New York Times bestselling fantasy author Kelley Armstrong…
Thorne Manor has always been haunted…and it has always haunted Bronwyn Dale. As a young girl, Bronwyn could pass through a time slip in her great-aunt's house, where she visited William Thorne, a boy her own age, born two centuries earlier. After a family tragedy, the house was shuttered and Bronwyn was convinced that William existed only in her imagination.
Now, twenty years later Bronwyn inherits Thorne Manor. And when she returns, William is waiting.
William Thorne is no longer the boy she remembers. He’s a difficult and tempestuous man, his own life marred by tragedy and a scandal that had him retreating to self-imposed exile in his beloved moors. He’s also none too pleased with Bronwyn for abandoning him all those years ago.
As their friendship rekindles and sparks into something more, Bronwyn must also deal with ghosts in the present version of the house. Soon she realizes they are linked to William and the secret scandal that drove him back to Thorne Manor. To build a future, Bronwyn must confront the past.

Why did I add A Stitch in Time to my bookshelf?
I love Kelley Armstrong’s writing so I have a really good feeling about this one. I am also a fan of time travel stories so I am very excited about this one. It looks like most of my Goodreads friends had a lot of luck with this one. Hopefully, I can tackle this series in 2024!
What are your thoughts? Have you read this book? Would you recommend it?
OOoh nice! I have this one in my TBR as well! And the rest of the books too! Lol. I love Kelley’s books but the woman writes too fast! I’ve way too many of her books in my TBR pile as it is! Lol.
I read one of Kelley’s books a long time ago and loved it but for some reason never read more of her books. This one sounds really good and it looks like it’s time to explore her books again. I’m also a fan of time travel stories. I hope you enjoy this series!
I haven’t read this one, but I have seen it around. I know many seem to enjoy this author and it definitely has an intriguing premise.
Ooh…A Stitch in Time is on my list to read next year. I really love Armstrong’s books, and the whole time travel aspect in it really appeals to me.
oh I really loved this, the whole series. I hope you do get to read it! I ended up buying them on audio.
I started with the second book and read the fourth book. Both are really good. I need to go back for this one. Hope you get a chance at these.
I still want to read this book (and series) too! Hopefully 2024 will be the year we get to it…
I had not yet put this book on my list, but I too have enjoyed Armstrong’s writing in the past and I must say that the premise of this book is intriguing!
Nope, this is a new one to me.
I hope you have a Merry Christmas.
I have never read Armstrong, but I do have my eye on a contemporary by her that is releasing next year. Glad to know you approve of her.
I’ve heard so many good things about this series. I’m not even a big time travel fan but this sounds so fantastic!
I love Armstrong, but haven’t tried this series yet. Hope you love it! I hope to get to it soon. 🙂
