Never Meant to Be

By: Steve Seitz

Narrated by: Kevin Theis

An accident with H.G. Wells' time machine strands Cynthia Kenyon in London, 1882. Utterly alone, the prisoner of Professor James Moriarty, there is but one name from the period Cynthia knows: Sherlock Holmes. What she could not know is how powerful an attraction she would feel for Holmes' partner, the handsome Dr. John Watson.

Cynthia faces a number of dangerous choices on this unique journey: allow the 19th century's great criminal mastermind to plunder the centuries? Give up her family, friends, and career for the love of one man from the past? Should she correct the history she has changed, and how? No matter what Cynthia chooses, some things are never meant to be.

An Interesting Genre Mix

Here we have Cynthia dealing with Sherlock Holmes, Watson and Moriarty via an H.G. Wells Time Machine! As implausible as it sounds, I think Seitz pulls it off quite well. Part Fantasy, part SciFi, and part Romance (Cynthia and Watson!?!), it is a short but well done story with excellent narration. Definitely worth a read/listen. I got my copy from Audiobooks Unleashed!

I really liked it!

This was a delightful romp, a science-fiction story, a doomed romance and a great adventure, all rolled up with well chosen pop culture references and lots of funny moments.

A new author to me, but I'll be sure to check for more of his books.

Where What?

A frantic account of an unlikely time traveler; who encounters several various time streams of events. An extremely enjoyable journey for the listener.
