A Time for Will
When cowboy Will Dawson lands on Lissie Pettigrew’s doorstep, she doesn’t think it’s the universe working its miracles. She thinks it’s another of her sister’s practical jokes.
Will remembers going into the barn on his family farm. Then lightning crackled and the earth fell away beneath his feet. That was 1885.
Lissie doesn’t believe in love, let alone love at first sight. But this stern cowboy, who is so unfamiliar with the modern world, sends her heart racing with his caring but strict manners.
Will wants to return to 1885. Lissie wants to find her twin sister, who disappeared at the same moment Will was dragged through time.
Lissie may only see her sister again at the cost of losing Will forever. If things go wrong, she may lose both of them. The forces that split the time-space continuum are stirring again. Will and Lissie weigh the risks before returning to the portal.

I was captivated by this domestic discipline and time travel romance! Having Verity travel back to 1885 with sending Will ahead to 1995, but remaining with the respective families was an interesting twist in the story. Each character was fun to watch adjust and react to the changes around them while, at the same time, also missing those left behind. Watching Lizzy and Will grow closer and explore their attraction had me guessing how the story would develop. The two main male characters, Michael and Will, each have their own style of dominance but are protective of their women and love equally hard. The female characters each are feisty and independent, but have to learn to adapt to their new standards and rules as well. Will these characters find their way back to when and where they come from? Will they find that they like their new time and place? Come read and travel in time to find out.
Overall, Libby Campbell gave the reader a well written story with great characters that were developed and endearing to the reader. She includes time travel, historical situations, suspense, domestic discipline, plenty of spankings, lots of love, family, friendships, and more. I definitely recommend this book for a great nights read! I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

Got the book for free. I liked the majority of the plot, and I liked the characters. Was not a fan of the domestic dominance. But if that’s your cup of tea you’ll like it. I also didn’t really understand how the main chick stood back and let this random cowboy beat her down like a hour after meeting him? Probably won’t be reading the spin off.

I loved this book. It was easy to read, entertaining, and with just enough heat. A perfect book for a day or two in the sun by the pool. I like Ms Campbell's twist on the girl-goes-back-in-time cookie cutter. She broke the mold. Well done!

FACING THE FUTURE
I always enjoy time-travel romance, and this one didn’t disappoint. Not one, but two individuals will be catapulted from their time period. One will go forward as the other will go back in time. In the story, you can see the challenges for each person that they must overcome. While the story covers both people that time-travel, it will mostly focus on Will and Lessie in 2017.
Will Dawson will be in the barn with his horse Monte on their family farm when a rumble has him transported forward to 2017. He will be in the same barn, but it is now run down with no horses, tack, saddles, hay, or feed.
Verity will discover the dilapidated barn on the Lesterville farm that she and her identical sister, Felicity, better known as Lessie, have inherited from a great aunt. While in the barn, it will shake and in a flash, she finds herself on the floor of the fourth stall, a knot on her head, but now the barn is in good shape, has horses and equipment, and she will eventually discover she was in 1885.
The plot will have Will and Verity each being catapulted from their respective time period, into the other persons. Will finds himself 132 years into the future in 2017. It will come as a shock on technology, clothing, and attitude. Verity is able to hide for a short time but will be found, and wearing clothing inappropriate for a woman in 1885. The knot will allow an excuse of confusion, but for how long. She is now a guest on the Dawson farm, but also under strict rules of the family, and will be punished if she disobeys. Will has big issues with the clothing and attitude of Lessie and her younger sister Hope. But when Lessie lets a string of cuss words fly and gets an attitude with him, he will take her to the barn and correct the errors of her way, just as he promised he would do.
“That’s a choice between the devil and the deep blue sea.”
For each of them, they will have to maneuver during their new time period carefully. The only way Verity and Lessie can communicate will be during dreams. Trying to keep things a secret with the hopes of righting the wrong will be a huge part of the challenge in this story. Will Verity be able to get back to 2017 and her boyfriend, Michael? But what happens when Will and Lessie develop feelings for each other in 2017. Will he be able to return to 1885 and can he take Lessie with him?
The story has many twists and turns, and even suspenseful moments. Two girls may be identical twins, but they each have their own personalities, likes, and dislikes, and that isn’t going to be easy to hide. What caused the shift that transported Will and Verity and will it happen again so they can each get back into their own time? There are several spanking scenes in both time periods. Dominant men exist in both 1885 and 2017. In the end, everyone affected will gain a new perspective on life, family, love, and what is important.
“He’d learned to see beyond the present moment and his private desires. He’d learned to look around and value the people who cared about him before they disappeared.”

When Verity explores the barn, she falls through a portal and lands in 1885. At the same time, Will is transported to 2017. There are some chapters how Verity adapts in 1885, but mostly the story is about Verity's twin sister Lissie and Will. Will is the product of his time, he insists to be the head of household and his preferred method to make sure he is obeyed is by spanking Lissie. Lissie realizes very soon that she doesn't mind to be taken in hand. When they find out that there might be a possibility for Will to go back to his time and Verity to get back to 2017 the question is will Lissie go with him.
For the most part I enjoyed the story. The characters are likeable and I also liked the author's writing style. But there were some scenes that felt very far-fetched to me, especially towards the end which felt rushed. 3.5 stars from me.

"...she was testing his faith in her judgement."
This book was captivating. Lissie, and her twin Verity, have inherited a property together, and as this story unfolds they are each asking their own questions about love as they take an unconventional path towards happily ever after.
Will is a cowboy from a tight knit family. He's used to his younger sister, and her antics, which gives him an edge when he unexpectedly appears in Lissie's life when she has her teenage sister on hand.
I loved the way this story was woven together, it allowed it to play fair with the reader, while taking unexpected twists and turns. Several characters were set up as interesting ones to have future stories, and this ends saying younger sister Hope will be the next one. I'd love for Faye and Sam to each get stories.
I was gifted with a copy of A Time For Will and chose to share my thoughts.

An intriguing combination of time travel, domestic discipline, historical and contemporary romance.
With Lissie and Verity being twins that were connected on such a spiritual or psychic level, I was surprised that Lissie did not know Verify and Michael practiced domestic discipline.
It was somewhat fascinating to follow along as each person in this group so easily accepted the whole concept of time travel. I thought that was unexpected. I have to give them credit. I think I would have been more sceptical. Or, at minimum, sceptical for longer.
This was not necessarily a quick read, but it could be done in a day, or overnight.

I've read several books written by Libby Campbell; she is becoming one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of her books.
The story is about Lissie & Will; he shows up on her doorstep; she thinks it’s another practical joke of her twin sister but when she realizes that he’s traveled in time she realizes that her sister disappeared at the same time he appeared.

Verity and Felicity are identical twins. While renovating an old farmhouse, Verity is taken back in time, and Will is brought forward. When Lissie (Felicity) finds him in the barn, that is the start of their relationship. Lissie learns to submit to Will while introducing him to the future. Will wants to return to his time, will it be possible?
I enjoyed this time travel book. It is a new take on an old concept. Reading about how Verity learns to live in the past and Will in the future was very entertaining. I'm looking forward to the next book.

Identical twins, but but with completely different personalities. The two main male characters are completely opposite in personalities, but both have a strong need to be in control. They both expect complete obedience. It’s when the twins are separated that reality of what is most important makes them face the truth of what is most important to each of them.
October 21, 2017
This was an easy read and held my attention. A couple of romances, spanking, and the mystery of how Verity and Will can get back to their correct time. Will is around 100 yrs in the future, and Verity is around 100 yrs in the past. Will they ever get back?

Historical fiction is not normally my style of reading but I have to say I truly enjoyed this book. I enjoyed seeing Will learn about the modern world and enjoyed watching Will and Lissie fall for each other. I also enjoyed seeing Michael finally snap out of his head and see what he had in front of him with Verity. I think I might give some of Libby’s other reads a chance and also can’t wait to read about Hope’s story and whether she ends up with a modern man or a time traveler.

Get ready for a heart stopping journey as a twin sister,Verity, is sent back in time and a handsome cowboy, Will, is sent forward in time. Ms Campbell does a wonderful job with how she kept me interested and enjoying every moment of this story.
Felicity is Verity's twin and she is there to meet Will and fall in love with him as time went by. The characters are well-developed and very interesting and the book deals with loyalty, love, and adventure. There is some disciplined so if you don't like reading stories like that you should pass but if you do I think you will be missing a great story.

Gotta love a time travel tale. This one has a little twist thou two people exchange places so you get to be withem both as they figure out how to survive in the time they have been thrust into. Verity and Lissie are twins that get pulled apart by time, one finds her true love and one is separated from hers. Some good twists and great connections.

What a fun and spanky time traveling story. I really wasn't sure where this book was going. Was it going to focus on the love life of one twin or both? Would there be a second book? I loved that it wasn't predictable. The characters are great. It's neat to see Will adapt to 2017- with his alpha nests firmly in tact.
If you like sweet DD romances, you will love this book. Ms. Campbell sure knows how to deliver.

Time travel romance isn't new & it's unlikely that any book in this genre will be completely original. While it may not be completely original, the task is to make it enjoyable enough so that you don't feel like you've read the same story hundreds of times before. This story may not be the greatest version of this tale but by the inclusion of twins as the central characters, it at least provides an unexpected element. I found most of the characters really enjoyable and ultimately likable which helped to make this story a pleasant, enjoyable and undemanding read for when you just want to relax & not think too deeply.
I’ve just finished the 2023 edition and while I can’t say what’s changed or been added, it’s still a very enjoyable read.

This was a sweet time travel romance. The characters were all likeable and well developed. I liked the balance between modern day and historical, I thought it worked well for the story. I think the author has more story to tell and I would definitely continue on with it if she decides to make it a series.

What a great tale. Lissie and Will are so cute together trying to work through the time change difference to get their HEA. Then Verity and Michael have their own issues to work through. It’s a great read full of up and downs as the couples try to work out their differences to finally get their HEA!

This was an enjoyable read. I am not overly familiar with Time Travel stories so there may have been a few questions that I had while reading but they did not detract from the story line. Twin sisters Verity and Lissie soon find themselves divided by time. Verity ends back in time without her love and Lissie soon finds her love with a man not of this century. This is Will and Lissie's story. It is a good one. The connection between Lissie and Will is instant and soon, Lissie will need to make a decision to stay in her time or go back with Will to his. All the while, Verity needs to find a way to get back to her time as she has a man - Michael - waiting for her. Interestingly enough, time does not mean anything when the twin connection connects and that connection will be needed if each twin is to the get their HEA. All in all it was an enjoyable read.
