Mula sa taong 2016 ay mapupunta siya sa nakaraan nang may isang misyon: huwag hayaang umibig sa kanya si Juanito Alfonso, ang anak ng kilalang gobernadorcillo at ang lalaking nakatakda niyang makaisang-dibdib. *** Palaging kinukuwestiyon ni Carmela Isabella ang mga kuwentong nakabaon sa nakaraan ng kanyang pamilya, ngunit hindi niya akalain na mula sa panahong 2016 ay mapupunta siya sa taong 1892 sa pamamagitan ng isang lumang talaarawan at ang Arch of the Centuries na kanyang nagsilbing portal. Inatasan siya ng isang misteryosong madre upang gawin ang napakahalagang misyon: kailangan niyang mamuhay bilang si Carmelita Montecarlos, ang bunsong anak ng pinakamayamang pamilya sa San Alfonso at siguruhing mapipigilan si Juanito Alfonso--ang nakatakdang mapangasawa ni Carmelita--na umibig sa kanya.

This novella was a Hugo and Nebula nominee twenty years ago. I lost both to Charles Sheffield -- whom I married five years later. Life sometimes really is just as strange as fiction.

It's Chloe May's last summer as a college student and she's ready to live it up with her friends... at the sleep away summer camp where they've all applied to work. Knowing this will probably be the last year they will be able to get together like this, it's a bittersweet time. The idea of her future is intimidating and she just wants to have one last chance to live carefree and unrestrained. All of them will be moving on to greater things in the coming year and Chloe isn't sure she's ready to do that, but with an opportunity for her dream job offered to her, she needs to come to a decision during the summer. But, of course, it's not all work and no play. There is some room to have fun and mingle with the other counselors, including a one incredibly handsome Arden Beckett. Falling in love is last on Chloe's list of things to do, especially considering her daunting future, but can she resist his charm and cheesy jokes? Can she overcome the want to freeze time in its place? Could he become a pillar to rely on? Join Chloe's journey in finding herself, a last minute love, and the secret to summer.
