A really charming audiobook about two people from two different centuries. Meg Turner works for a home that was turned into a museum, or part of it was. She meets a man, Charles Whitley, from the past who suddenly turns up, he was the owner of the house. He had it in his will that if he died, the house, at least part of it was to be turned into a museum. He liked to work on clocks, while working on one he was suddenly in his home but it was decorated for Christmas and strangers were walking through it with a tour guide. Meg and the others who work in the home, seemed to accept his getting thrown into the future fairly readily. That was kind of strange to me. Although the rest of the story was basically a pretty enchanting Christmas story, with a bit of time travel thrown in. I did like the narrator, she moved along at a good pace and I liked her voice, she did assign a different voice for the man in the story, the rest she read in her regular voice. It worked. I enjoyed being able to go about my chores in the house and still be able to read a book. This was my first audiobook and I really enjoyed it.

Soon
to be a Hallmark Original Movie!
They’re
from two different centuries, but they’re perfect for each other.
Megan Turner is in love
with the past. As a tour guide at a beautiful historic mansion, she tells
visitors about its original owner, Charles Whitley. An inventor and businessman
in the early 1900s, he rose from poverty to wealth…only to disappear without a
trace. Charles was always intrigued by the future. He just never expected to go
there. But when he repairs a mysterious clock he bought on his travels, he’s
transported to the twenty-first century, with his home decorated for Christmas
and overrun by strangers. Charles is determined to find a way back to his own
era, especially when he learns about what happened after he left. But as Megan
introduces him to the wonders of smartphones, pizza, and modern holiday
traditions, they both feel a once-in-a-lifetime connection. Could it be that,
somewhere in time, they belong together? This magical holiday romance includes a
free Hallmark original recipe for Stuffed Crust Italian Pizza.
