NESTLED DEEP WITHIN THE WELSH COUNTRYSIDE IS A COTTAGE. The Spirits Three B&B, it's called. A Bed and Breakfast for weary travelers of all sorts. A sanctuary for spirits, shapeshifters, and mortals alike. A gathering place for story and song. Pull up a seat and listen--as long as it's not the crimson armchair in the corner, because you will soon find the frail old woman who has claimed it is, in fact, an ancient dragon capable of charring you to ashes. She probably won't. But best not risk it.

The year is 1888. Secrets begin to unfurl when Frank Forester arrives to court Sarah Lawrence. His idea to stay turns into a need to get her out of town. At each turn, surprises arrive. The trip to the ranch does not go as expected and Jacob Forester also finds things going wrong. He's agreed to ride with the Rangers once again, and ends up meeting Taylor Daniels. She's young, vulnerable, and heading to see her Aunt Bess, who he knows is the owner of the saloon in Clear Creek. Jacob understands she doesn't know, so he offers her work at the ranch. The fact that he finds himself wanting to take care of her creates another problem. If his sister was home, instead of traveling to meet her new husband's family in Oklahoma, things wouldn't be such a mess. Nothing goes as one thinks it should, except for Gregor who seems to always anticipate trouble.

Highest Rank #2. (Published on Amazon. Six chapters available for review.) First impressions can often be wrong. Lori Forester's five older brothers raised her to ride like an Indian, shoot the head off a match with blinding speed, and hunt with skill and cunning, like a brother. Though, she also has the skills of a lady. In 1888, men challenge her will and create situations that test her fortitude. Her keen wit and beauty flock men to her, but only one gives her what the others don't - admiration for all her capabilities.

(Time Travel) Love isn't measured by time. Frank lives in the 1920's. Abby lives in his house over a hundred years in the future. Then something magical happens to the mirrors in the house. Instead of seeing their reflection, they see and hear each other. Leery as to what has begun they question each other. Yet when they fall asleep the connection stops. When it begins again, they understand it deals with looking in the mirror simultaneously. They also discover how time moves differently for them. Days can be weeks. The puzzle of the mirrors has them searching for answers while he learns about new technology. As the clues fall into place, they discover the possibility of crossing the time barrier. The choice of such a sacrifice of exchanging their time for the other is one she is willing to take just to be with him. ________ This is PG-15 for sexual suggestion
