Three years ago, Rosalind Courtenay stumbled from the nineteenth century to the twenty-first, where she has been trapped ever since, leaving her husband and infant son behind. Now she’s found her way back.
The problem, of course, is how to explain her absence to her husband. Does he think she abandoned him? Has he remarried? Is he happy in a new life? Rosalind decides to don a disguise in hopes of answering her questions before showing up on his doorstep. Instead, a twist of fate has her mistaken for her young son’s new governess.
Rosalind has every intention of revealing herself as soon as August returns home from business. Until then, she’ll get to know her son, a quiet child who has inexplicably been abandoned by an endless stream of governesses. That’s when the hauntings begin. Rosalind has finally come home and something—or someone—doesn’t just want her gone. They want her dead.

About the Author

Kelley Armstrong believes experience is the best teacher, though she's been told this shouldn't apply to writing her murder scenes. To craft her books, she has studied aikido, archery and fencing. She sucks at all of them. She has also crawled through very shallow cave systems and climbed half a mountain before chickening out. She is however an expert coffee drinker and a true connoisseur of chocolate-chip cookies. --This text refers to the paperback edition.

-SOME LIGHT SPOILERS-

I enjoyed the first book in the series so thoroughly that I bought this one without a second thought. However, while the first book was very effective at hitting the gothic-romance-mystery balance squarely on the head, this one surges FAR into Scooby Doo villain territory and is light on the romance.

Unlike William and Bronwyn’s story which was sprinkled liberally with sweet romantic moments and real suspense, this book was doused in manufactured suspense that just didn’t seem believable. I just had so many questions about the premise of the plot that I lost enjoyment very quickly. Rosalind ran to Thorne Manor after seeing William in the street, but… stopped to get a wig and contacts? And a bunch of makeup? Did she cross over with a huge stockpile of contact solution too? Makeup brushes, etc? What about her wig somehow looking presentable despite her sleeping in it, dunking it in stagnant water, etc? As a wig wearer, I laughed at the idea that her wig must have looked like a Halloween store wig and somehow nobody thought that was weird.

Furthermore, I read the explanation for why Rosalynn decided to wear a disguise. Then I read the explanation for why she continued and continued and continued to wear the disguise. It was a hell of a leap to begin with, and it just got worse as time went on. Seems like a strange choice to write a character who is so super intelligent but somehow thought this was not a dingbat idea. It just didn’t fit. I really had to do mental gymnastics to suspend my disbelief for this one.

Lastly, just personal preference but I like my romance to contain romance - which this did not except in the barest sense.

This is a great read. Characters are well developed and very believable. A story that has you gripping your seat with suspense and with a who done it, and the outcome is to say the most surprising,,! Kept me turning the pages! The audio narrator did a wonderful job too! I highly recommend this book, but you must read book 1 first to understand the background. Also another fantastic read!

Typically, I don't read romance books however I picked up Stitch in Time because it had been written by Kelley Armstrong. Armstrong is an amazing author who has written many of my favorite books. Stitch in Time, did not disappoint! When I finally put the book down, I was devestated to find that I'd have to wait a few months to read a Twist of Fate. I had to have more!
Twist of Fate, was definitely worth the wait! Immediately, Armstrong had me encased in this time traveling mystery romance. I felt the pain and devestation that Rosalind felt having been ripped from her world, her family and tossed into the future. You felt Rosalind desperation to return home to her family, to have what she had lost. Then upon Rosalind returning home to her time, she walks right into the biggest mystery of all. Well mysteries. Who is haunting the family? Who wants Rosalind gone so much they would go as far as to try and murder her? Is the family safe? Will Rosalind's husband recognize her upon his return?
Armstrong kept me on my toes with every page. I did not solve the mystery ahead of time. Which is exactly how I like my mystery books. She wrapped it all up in a beautiful box and a nice neat bow on top. Armstrong's characters are beautifuly written and well developed each with flaws of their own.
I know it's cliche to say, but I couldn't put this book down. It had my attention from the beginning to end, a fact my dog did not appreciate. I was delighted to see characters from Stitch in Time make an appearance to help our time traveling friend out, although this book can be read as a standalone.

Loved this story, loved the time jump, The mystery, drama,ghosts, and the Happily Ever After . I also loved that TBE characters from book one make a appearance in this story, giving us a glimpse into what their lives look like now. This author never cease to amaze me with her creative imagination.

Great Series Installment

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 9, 2021

Verified Purchase

I normally don’t like time travel books, I think it has to do with the movie Somewhere in Time, as that movie broke my little heart. Just like Jamie making Claire go back through the stones in the very popular Outlander books. Again I was heartbroken, not as young though. So I have normal do not read them, until one of my favorite authors writes a time travel series. I jumped in preparing for my heart to be broken again, but it wasn’t. HAPPY DANCE! As these time travel mystery romances have happily ever after! This second installment centers around Rosalind and August, who’s story was touched on in book one. What I love about this Armstrong’s book is that she the mystery had me guessing until the end. Which was so good, as it has plenty of twists and turns, and has a good paranormal story line.
I really enjoyed this book and the audio narrator was fabulous.

Quite enjoyable, not as good as book 1

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 3, 2022

Verified Purchase

I quite enjoyed this book, although I have a few quibbles. The main character is a Victorian English woman, albeit one who visited the 21st century, but the entire narration, including dialogue between 19th century characters, is far too modern and completely Americanised. Definitely not the speech of 19th century Yorkshire. The story was good but seemed very rushed in places and many events just seemed to be too contrived. An enjoyable read though, even with its faults.

..a wonderful gothic mix of time travel, murder/mystery, suspense, ghosts and romance.

An ARC copy was received from the author in exchange for my review. This has not influenced the review in any way.

A Twist of Fate by Kelley Armstrong
This is the 2nd book in her A Stitch in Time series. It’s a wonderful gothic mix of time travel, murder/mystery, suspense, ghosts and romance.

For me, the best part of this story are the characters, their relationships and personal growth.

It’s the story of Rosalind, a Victorian woman who accidentally steps through Thorne Manor’s time-slip, ending up 180 (or so) years into her future (our present) – leaving behind her husband and baby. Rosalind was thought to have either died in a riding accident, or run off and abandoned her husband August and baby son Edmund.
The story follows her return to her own time, and her reintegration into her family – complete with disguises, ghostly sightings, and a mysterious death.

Someone in the household though, doesn’t want Rosalind there and mayhem ensues.

What works least well is the set-up that allows Rosalind to return to her home, disguised as the new governess, and her self-talk/justification for pretending to be another woman.

What I’d like to see more of – her time in our present, how she adapted and managed to create and own her own business in only four years.

For me, the best part of this story is the developing relationship Rosalind has with Edmund – a quiet well-behaved child who learns to trust and enjoy his time with his mother.

Rosalind’s relationship with August also develops, and she’s much stronger for her time away. August too has grown during their enforced separation.

Unravelling the mystery includes a number of twists and turns I didn’t see coming.

More straightforward than A Stitch in Time, this was an equally enjoyable read. Looking forward to reading the third instalment.

The first book was quite a surprise, time traval is always complicated and K. Armstrong got a goon pen at it. Second book follow in the same line, interesting having contemporary information in a Victorian world. I really appreciated how she moved around this second part of the series.

Not the book you are expecting, but it kind of is. With all the old stories mixed in with a new perspective and the characters in different roles, it is an entertaining read. But I always love Kelley Armstrong and will read everything she writes knowing I will be engaged and immersed in her story
