Entertaining plot with a nice thread to connect 3 protagonists across separate timelines, but at times the writing made it incredibly difficult to follow and differentiate between the characters.

3 1/2 stars. Very well written, however I just found the constant changing of time periods frustrating. It adds to the suspense of the story, but it's difficult at times for the reader.

I got this book because [a:Lauren Willig|14469|Lauren Willig|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1349230643p2/14469.jpg] is one of the coauthors. I've only read one other book by [a:Karen White|160033|Karen White|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1487123648p2/160033.jpg] ([b:The House on Tradd Street|4505161|The House on Tradd Street (Tradd Street, #1)|Karen White|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1344586077s/4505161.jpg|4554187]) and one by [a:Beatriz Williams|4927506|Beatriz Williams|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1495573962p2/4927506.jpg] ([b:A Certain Age|25817466|A Certain Age|Beatriz Williams|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1462516131s/25817466.jpg|45583549]). While I somewhat enjoyed their books, I wasn't in love with them like I have been with Willig's work since the first Pink Carnation. [b:The Forgotten Room|25431172|The Forgotten Room|Karen White|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1430158925s/25431172.jpg|45191877] is what I love about Willig's work as well as other authors like [a:Kate Morton|615274|Kate Morton|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1444262471p2/615274.jpg]. It's a great blend of stories, characters, and time periods that create a nice, big picture. It doesn't hurt that there's a little romance included as well.
