I received this book for free. I am voluntarily posting this review and all opinions expressed herein are my own.
This is a regency romance with a time travel element [which is a very minor part of the story]. I have not read any of this author’s previous works – but from reading some of the reviews, I got the sense that some of these characters come from other stories. Perhaps if I had read those other stories, I would have enjoyed this one more. I found the story full of information dumps [which are likely the stories from her previous works] – where characters spend a lot of time recounting events. The mother of MC Lady Elizabeth is from the 20th Century – and she uses terms/language from that time period, even though she now lives hundreds of years in the past – I found this a bit jarring and odd that everyone understood her given that would not be the language of the time.
The narrator, Duchess DeFoix, did a nice job and her voice is enjoyable to listen to.

This is the sixth book in the Linked Across Time, a time travel romance/historical romance/pirate story. The storyline is original, fun, and captivating. Duchess DeFoix did a great job with the narration. Her voice fits perfectly the story. I enjoyed it!
