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.

Hope among the ruins (EN) ✅
The action takes place during the Second World War. Elizabeth is a recent medical school graduate from Boston who hopes to find her dream job, find a man she loves, have children and live a peaceful life. But her dreams are shattered the moment she receives an order from the United States government to go to Tunisia and join medical workers from around the world, nursing soldiers. Still, the young woman can't complain too much, because in part her dream job still became a reality, even if it was in unusual and extremely dangerous circumstances for her. But everything changes the moment she meets a gallant soldier in the enemy camp, who tries in every possible way and for unknown reasons to save her life and bring her back to her native home. Betrayal of one's own will cost a soldier very much. Maybe even his own life. How will Elizabeth cope with the idea that she will never see her lover again? Will she endure the feeling of loss? Or maybe she won't care about all this at all and she will live her dream life in peace?Concluida
The Curious Life of Miss B
Amanda Banner has worked her way into her dream job of running a Victorian house museum. Left alone in the sprawling manor, Amanda finds that not everything is as it appears. Apparitions roam the halls, items move when they're not supposed to, and suddenly a mirror begins to shimmer. As Amanda approaches the strange mirror she is catapulted into 1880 and directly into the arms of Matthew Robertson, one of the first residents to live in the mansion. Tensions run high as Amanda tries to navigate Victorian social etiquettes, attempts to find a way home, and battles the emotional fury that erupts every time she and Matthew draw near each other. Will Amanda make it back to her own time, or will she be forced to learn to live in a time long since past? _________________________ Trigger warning for sexual acts and coarse language.

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.Concluida

She's finally met the man of her dreams-too bad he lives in a different century!

But she may also have to survive without modern tools or career-unless she can find a way to return to her time. And then there's Viscount Lord Montagu, a man whose embrace curls her toes, but who has a dangerous agenda of his own. Lord Phineas Montagu is on a mission to avenge his sister, and he'll stop at nothing, including convincing an alluring stranger to pose as his respectable fiancé. He's happy to repay her by helping her search for her stolen calling card case that brought her back in time. But he doesn't bargain for the lady being his intellectual match-or for the irresistible attraction that flames between them. They're both certain they know what they want, but as passion flares, Phineas must keep both himself and Isabella safe from unseen opponents, and she must choose when and where her heart belongs. Can they ever be together for good? Don't miss the time travel romance USA Today called "a delicious twist on historical drama and romance."Concluida
