A Time to Change: A heart-wrenching love story

“I would rather love passionately for an hour than benignly for a lifetime.”

In a house full of history and secrets, the past will not stay where it belongs…

Lou has always loved Hill House, the derelict manor on the abandoned land near her home. As a child, the tragic history of its owners, the Mandevilles, inspired her dream to become a history teacher. But in her late twenties, and working in a shop to pay off student debts, life is passing her by.

That changes when a family disaster sends Lou’s life into a downward spiral and she seeks comfort in the ruined corridors of Hill House. The house transforms around her and Lou is transported back to Christmas 1913. Convinced she has been in an accident and is in a coma, Lou immerses herself in her Edwardian dream. With the Mandevilles oblivious to her true identity, Lou becomes their houseguest and befriends the eldest son, Captain Thomas Mandeville, a man she knows is destined to die in the First World War.

Lou feels more at home in the past than the present and when she realises the experience is real she sets out to do everything in her power to save her new friends.

Lou passes between 1913 and 2013, unearthing plots of murder and blackmail, which she must stop no matter the cost.

On her quest to save the Mandevilles by saving Thomas, Lou will face the hardest decision of her life. She will learn that love cannot be separated by a century.

A Time to Change is a beautifully written and utterly compelling time slip romance novel

Engaging and captivating, a Christmas story with a difference.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 December 2017

I loved this book! When Louisa’s mother dies tragically, she blames herself for not being there to prevent it. For comfort she visits Hill House, a derelict old mansion, where she used to play as a child. As she explores the building, she finds herself travelling back in time to Christmas 1913 when Hill House was a spendid and grand building inhabited by the intriguing Mandeville family.

This is a beautifully written story. The descriptions of both eras are very vivid, so easy to visualise. I could almost believe I was in Hill House with Louisa, walking through the grandiose rooms and drinking champagne. It’s very atmospheric. The house sounds wonderful. The time travel aspect is brilliantly and seamlessly accomplished. It's very convincing and there's something of a twist at the end! There are some well drawn and interesting characters, good and bad. I really liked Louisa, she's such a kind-hearted and generous person. There's something to please most readers - mystery, murder and romance. It’s quite the page turner, I found it difficult to put down. It even brought a tear to my eye and I was sad to turn the last page.

An engaging, captivating and moving tale which I thoroughly enjoyed and I can highly recommend. A Christmas story with a difference!

Can love change the world?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 March 2019

I’d heard some very good things about this book, but I was a little wary as I began reading due to the ‘time slip’ aspect. Historical novels no problem, but people skipping back and forth in time? However, Callie Langridge’s magnificent storytelling overcame my resistance in no time… I was surprised at just how immersed I became in this story. The characters felt so real, and the scenes both past and present are so expertly evoked that I found myself going along with the strangest of things.
Lou, a 20-something trained teacher and history graduate is the main character. Some years after qualifying she lives at home and works at her local supermarket, and knows she is going nowhere fast. But she doesn’t believe in herself and can’t get her act together. When her mother is killed on the rough estate where she lives with her mother and brothers, Lou blames herself and runs off to the mysterious Hill House nearby, where she used to play as a child. The house, now derelict, suddenly comes to life and fills with servants and aristocracy, characters from its heyday in 1913 just before the first world war set it on a path to ruin. Even stranger, they are expecting Lou’s arrival…
The conveys the emotional states of characters with warmth and sensitivity. (There are some love-to-hate ones too.) A Time To Change is a longish novel but the drama and suspense builds steadily – by the time I was halfway through I didn’t want the book to end. The ending is quite a turnabout, and came as a surprise.
The novel is about the power of love to overcome hate and destructive intent. There are some inexplicable, near mystical elements in this novel which may not appeal to everyone. If you can go along with this though and are willing to suspend disbelief for a while, you’re in for a treat.

Absolute gem of a story....wow, just wow

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 January 2018

I’m a bookworm and it’s very rare for me to come across a book that encapsulates my complete attention from the very first pages, that I struggle to put down. This book did exactly that. I wouldn’t normally choose this genre of reading either, I just saw that it had such great reviews. With each page that I turned, I felt like I was reliving what it was like to be alive in the 1913s. The details that the author goes into, makes you feel like you are there with the characters. It’s like a rollercoaster of a journey where you can’t help to want to read more, regardless of how late in the evening it is and with a 5am alarm set. There is only one other book, that I have read, that has given me such raw emotion, like I felt towards the end, and that was an international number one best seller for many weeks. The only down side to the book was that it came to an end....I can’t wait to read more from this author....this book deserves to be a film or a mini series....fantastic read!!!

I don’t give many five star reviews.

This beautifully written book actually made me care about the characters and brought a tear to my eye - maybe I’m getting soppy in my old age! I love time travel stories and the “what if. . .” I would categorise this story as a cross between the lovely film, “Somewhere in Time” (based upon the equally riveting but difficult to source novel, “Bid Time Return” by Richard Matheson - I had to import my copy from America) and the TV series, “Goodnight Sweetheart” but without the comedy. I would recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys a well-structured, easy to read but thought provoking book. A sci-fi love story that would make a good Christmas movie!

SPOILERS.
If I had to make one criticism it would be that the ending was just a little too neat but I suppose anything else would have been a disappointment.

Fabulous time slip story

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 April 2018

Verified Purchase

The only time slip story I've ever read is The Time Traveller's Wife and, whilst I know many love it, it really wasn't for me. It did make me reluctant to look at another time slip story but a friend recommended this and I'm really glad I gave the genre a chance.
When Louisa's mum is tragically killed, her world falls apart, not that it was exactly a bed of roses in the first place. In a rundown town with few prospects, a place of comfort for her has always been Hill House. Once a grand manor house, it's now as unloved as the rest of the town, but she still feels an affinity with the house, captivated by its history. When it all gets too much, she seeks solace in the derelict house. And then things start to become a little peculiar when she wanders downstairs and steps back into the past.
This is a great story of trying to save the former residents of Hill House from their downfall, whilst struggling with her own life in the present. Highly recommended.
