Great writing combined with a great narrator make for a wonderful series. The idea for this book was so intriguing, but the characters, plot and unraveling of a mystery made it even better. Very engaging. The level of tension and dilemma was juicy. Narrator Andrea Emmes is a pro. I picked this series largely because of her. if there were an all star team for Narrators she'd be on it. ( )

I am soooo disappointed!! I loved "Remembrance" but "Timeless", the final book in the series, was a real let-down. Yes, there was time-travel which I enjoyed, but there were a number of flaws in the plot and it lacked urgency and depth.

The characters annoyed me and I wanted to feel as though I, too, had been transported back to Regency England. Also, the smouldering connection between Lizzie's and Drew was missing. Instead their interactions felt forced. Overall, a disappointing end to a series that started with such potential. ( )

3.5

What do you do when your gut says you are meant to be with someone, who is with your best friend? In the first book Drew came into two friends best friend's lives turning things upside down as both fell in love with him. In the second book Chelsea learns about their past lives as she tries to fix things. In this third book Elizabeth, Drew, and Chelsea have to fix the curse that Chelsea had put on her best friend.

Michelle Madow was an indie author who rose up to having a deal with an agency because of this series. For me parts felt rushed, you're missing a whole month in the book. Part of me is like if she wrote it, it would drag on, but if she didn't you're missing a month. I appreciated not having the month.

Sorry read this awhile ago and trying to catch up on reviews of books I read weeks ago on a trip... ( )

Timeless holds all of my favorite parts to the story!
Michelle Madow did an outstanding job with the conclusion to the series...

*Spoiler Free!*

There is no time to spare in Timeless... the story picks up immediately after Remembrance -
Lizzie and Drew are able to soak in their blissful state for about 2 minutes before Lizzie realizes that something isn't right. Odd things keep happening to her. Dark things.
It seems that Lizzie and Drew are not destined for their happily-ever-after yet!
It doesn't take them long to realize who is behind their misfortune; and if they had the time to dwell on it and be angry about it, they would! But time is ticking and the thing that they most feared can happen at any moment. They must find a way to reverse what is happening before it's too late!

I loved everything about Timeless!
The characters grow and mature so much: Lizzie and Drew's relationship blooms in strength and trust. Chelsea's character, no matter all the wrong's she did, I liked her even more this time around! She really comes into her own, thinks fast and really pulls through in the end - which is something rare to happen in stories.

The plot really picks up and moves along smoothly - Madow's writing and style gets better and better. I am really looking forward to seeing what she will be writing about next!

The Transcend Time Saga is truly a 'timeless' love story not to be forgotten! ( )

Timeless takes us on quite an adventure. The combination of time travel, magic, and love makes the story an unforgettable page turner. After the shocking events in Vengeance, I was dying to find out where Chelsea’s actions would lead and if the girls would ever be able to repair their friendship. Madow answered all of these questions and more in the final installment of the Transcend Time saga.

At the end of Vengeance Chelsea misguidedly casts a spell with unforeseen consequences. In order to prevent something truly disastrous from happening, Lizzie, Chelsea, and Drew must all travel back to Regency England to change the course of time. Since the three have to work together, we get to see Lizzie and Chelsea interacting again. I am a huge fan of their friendship, so I was very happy to see the two forced to work out some of their issues.

Drew wasn’t always nice to Chelsea—given the consequences of her actions, this is somewhat understandable. However, I really do blame Drew for what happened between Chelsea and Lizzie. Since the entire mess is his fault, he could be a bit more sympathetic. Nevertheless, he is still really sweet with Lizzie, which makes him both likable and flawed.

My absolute favorite part of the novel was the time travel! We find out so much about Lizzie’s past life and it is a lot more scandalous then we ever thought! Lizzie, Chelsea, and Drew uncover some really big secrets and have some important mysteries to solve before they can return to the present day and it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time! I really didn’t see these plot twists coming, and they were utterly fabulous.

Michelle Madow creates a beautiful tale of love, friendship, and forgiveness. She has an understanding of people that allows her to create very realistic characters. They are flawed, yet likable. Chelsea and Lizzie’s relationship reminds me of my friendships with some of my closet friends. While Remembrance is a love story heart, it is the friendships that I will miss reading about the most. I am truly looking forward to more of Madow’s works in the future, although I am sad to say goodbye to this particular cast of characters. ( )
