Jennifer Moorman expertly weaves a story of time travel, suspense, love, and the 1920s into a book with twists and turns and an ending I never saw coming.

author of THE EMPRESS OF COOKE COUNTY Elizabeth Bass Parman

'THE VANISHING OF JOSEPHINE REYNOLDS charms all the way from the enchanted door and its whispered passwords to the raucous speakeasy. It is impossible not to root for Josephine as she fights against the sands of time—and her own vanishing—to save her family and unearth her truest self in the process. Jennifer Moorman shines.'

author of SOUTHERN BY DESIGN Grace Helena Walz

'This twisty, intriguing tale is brimming with atmosphere, heartbreak, magic, and ultimately a bright spark of hope!'

bestselling author of THE MAGIC OF LEMON DROP PIE Rachel Linden

'An ancestral home holds stories, secrets, and maybe even the ability to rewrite history in Jennifer Moorman's latest enthralling must-read. THE VANISHING OF JOSEPHINE REYNOLDS seamlessly blends the present day with 1927—and a splash of Moorman's signature magic—in a moving, unputdownable race against time. A testament to family ties, the power of love, and the indomitable human spirit, Moorman's latest proves that, sometimes, the impossible can become possible. I was hooked from the very first enchanting page.'

New York Times bestselling author of A HAPPIER LIF Kristy Woodson Harvey

'In THE VANISHING OF JOSEPHINE REYNOLDS, Moorman deftly weaves her trademark everyday magic into a tale of time travel, mystery, and romance. At the heart of the story is Josephine, a young woman so stricken by grief that she wishes to no longer exist. Transported to the 1920s when she passes through a magical door, Josephine has one last chance at life—if she can find the courage to live and love again.'

bestselling author of IMPROBABLY YOURS Kerry Anne King

'THE VANISHING OF JOSEPHINE REYNOLDS drips with lush Jazz Age detail, a vivid cast of characters, and a protagonist whose future literally depends on her ability to navigate the past. In one novel, Jennifer Moorman gives us a time-bending tale of both suspense and self-discovery and a heroine we can't help but cheer as she learns what she's truly made of—and perhaps, how to love again.'
