When the Day Comes by Gabrielle Meyer
When the Day Comes by Gabrielle Meyer
Book 1 of Timeless
Summary:
Libby has been given a powerful gift: to live one life in 1774 Colonial Williamsburg and the other in 1914 Gilded Age New York City. When she falls asleep in one life, she wakes up in the other. While she's the same person at her core in both times, she's leading two vastly different lives.
In Colonial Williamsburg, Libby is a public printer for the House of Burgesses and the Royal Governor. The man she loves, Henry Montgomery, has his own secrets. As the revolution draws near, both their lives--and any hope of love--are put in jeopardy.
Libby's life in 1914 New York is filled with wealth, drawing room conversations, and bachelors. But the only work she cares about--women's suffrage--is discouraged, and her mother is intent on marrying her off to an English marquess. The growing talk of war in Europe only complicates matters.

Opening Lines:
For as long as I could remember, my mama had told me that my life was a gift. But at the age of nineteen, I had yet to see how this life I was living--or rather, the lives I was living--could be anything other than a burden.
"Libby!" My younger sister Rebecca slammed open the door to the office where Mama and I were working on the weekly edition of the Virginia Gazette. "It's that horrid Mister Jennings and the lawyer, Mister Randolph." She was breathless, and her cheeks were red from the heat. She pointed at the window. "They're coming this way. They'll be here any second."
