What happens when you get hit over the head with a rogue two-by-four? What you expect and what museum docent and Revolutionary War reenactor Abigail Gage received were probably not the same thing. With her trip to Boston gone awry, she wakes up after the nasty blow in Colonial Boston in the able hands of Doctor Samuel Downer. With the Revolution close at hand, she finds herself playing host to two Continental soldiers on the run from the British and tangling with a past that she doesn't even remember. Not knowing how to get home and stuck in a time she's only read about, Abigail quickly realizes that, between the Sons of Liberty and the British regulars, she's in for one hell of a ride.

A Journey Through Time
What if you woke up one morning... and everything around you belonged to another century? One moment, I was moving through my mundane routine. The next, a mysterious silver box - and a cryptic warning - hurled me through time. All I ever wanted was a simple life: quiet, steady, normal. Instead, I've landed in a world where I hold no power, know no one, and understand nothing about the rules shaping every breath I take. To survive, I have to learn the laws of a world determined to silence me - and find a way home before it's too late, especially with a war on the horizon. But how do you change the course of history when you barely understand how it began? And just when I think things can't get any more complicated, a pair of ocean-blue eyes threatens to rewrite everything I thought I wanted. Can I return to the life I lost? Or will the past - and the man I was never meant to meet - change my future forever? Author's Note: For readers who crave time-travel romance, historical drama, and slow-burn love that keeps you up way past midnight - welcome. You're in the right place.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

"Well then, there must be a reason why you aren't able to keep your eyes off me in the market today, Miss Wellesley." He whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my back. "Don't flatter yourself," I took a step back, "it's just that you're the first person I think the word 'ugly' stands for." "Deny all you want, sweetheart." He inched closer and leaned into my ear, "but your face says it all." ___________________ Are you aware of how people lived in the 1800s? Well, I for one, do not.

As she struggles to adapt to the harsh realities of the past, Archer's kindness and undeniable curiosity about her force Veronica to confront her past, her fears, and her future in ways she never could have anticipated. Will she survive the wild frontier, or will the past trap her in a world she's desperate to leave? A gripping tale of time travel, survival, and the bonds that form in the most unlikely of circumstances.
