Romance and adventure…a trip to where an American tradition began… Libby Edwards, a gifted horsewoman, unwittingly wishes herself back in time to Louisville, Kentucky just before Churchill Downs and the Kentucky Derby become a reality. During Libby’s journey in the past, she stumbles upon her destiny. Unfortunately, he’s in the wrong century. In 1874, there’s no electricity, no internet, no modern medicine, no antibiotics—no Starbucks! And even worse than that, women have no rights. Libby has no desire to stay. Widower, Colin Thorpe, a renaissance man of his time, has big dreams. He is a horse breeder who names his thoroughbreds after Mythological Gods because he has a reverence for past cultures and an appreciation for the unexplainable. Libby and Colin can’t resist falling in love with each other. After all, Colin accepts Libby for who she is and she understands Colin’s dreams better than his deceased wife ever did. Yet he grasps early on that Libby doesn’t belong in 1874. And because his wife never adapted to the move from Virginia to Kentucky, becoming bitter and unhappy in the process, he won’t take the chance of the same thing happening to Libby. Can these two lovers find a way to be together despite their obstacles?

I know I’m a heart breaker. I broke Cam and me. And I also broke myself somewhere along the way. But I finally made it back. It’s been two years. Two years that I wish I could completely erase, and purge from my existence. I wish I could kick myself into the past, kick that stupid, idiotic girl, and tell her to stop running away. To live the life she wants, not the life mum her Mum thought she should have. You were such a coward Bailey Ryan. Now, the only thing I know for sure is, I’m home. I’m never going away again. And maybe Cam will forgive me. And maybe I’ll exorcise my demons and forget. Maybe … but I’m not really sure. But now I’m here, I know one thing … I’m sure as hell going to try.
