The Surviving Trace

Surviving Time Series, Book 1

By: Calia Read

Narrated by: Mason Lloyd, Courtney Patterson

Will is my fiance. The shy man I met years ago in college. The person I'm supposed to spend the rest of my life with. This is the life I've always wanted until finding a picture of four men changes everything....

Étienne says he's my husband and the year is 1912. He can't stand the sight of me, but I don't know why. Oh, and he's one of the men from the picture.

I've done the impossible and have become trapped in time and I know Étienne is my key to going home.

The more time I spend with Étienne, the further I fall for him until I'm questioning which time I belong in and if the life I left behind is the one I truly desire.

All I know for certain is I need to survive time. I need to survive love.

And I need to make it out on the other side alive.

Contains mature themes.

THIS WAS SOOOO GOOD!!!!

“No matter what happens, I am yours,” I whisper fiercely. “And you are always mine. Nothing can change that.”

This book was such a great one to listen to. From beginning to end, it was such a rollercoaster ride of an adventure!!! I love how it started with Serene finding a photo from 1912 and just wanting to know the story behind it to getting stuck in 1912 Charleston, South Carolina and having a great enemies to lovers romance that just tugs at your heartstrings…

This was one of my first reads from Calia & it won’t be the last!!! If your a lover of historical romance with amazing characters, good banter, an epic love story with time travel added to the mix, you’ll love it. To me, It’s a beautiful mix of Outlander meets After….

Fast Moving

Fairly fast, moving - not a lot of time wasted on the buildup and character development. I really enjoyed the actual male doing male voices.

The sample scooped me in!!

I was pulled into the story instantly! Grea
t narration, great premise but I had two problems I could not get past.
1) a woman who sells antiques and is a history buff absolutely refuses to Immerse herself into the culture, the time and place and clothes she now find herself. She acts like a total idiot and it annoying
2)the use of “d*ck and p*ssy” in the sex scenes was terribly cringy.

Hooked

I was so hooked to this listen I didn’t want to stop. I love time travel books and this was a really good one. All I can say is I hope this isn’t the end for Serene and (spelling will be off) Etíen. I know there is a trilogy here and I’m hoping they are not stand alone books.

This book isn’t getting the attention it deserves!

A wonderful story of time traveling, enemies to lovers and mystery. You’ll be on the edge of your seat while listening to this book.
