Wilhelm Krammer has an ax to grind after his fiancée dies in his arms. Pulled from command, he's assigned to work on a time travel project...which goes horribly wrong.
When a machine test misfires, Wilhelm is transported to modern-day Berlin. He sees and learns things he can barely comprehend. The only thing that doesn't make him recoil is the woman who comes to his aid and is determined to help him get home.
Emily Feit can hardly believe her eyes when a WW2 SS Captain lands at her feet. Knowing he's injured and desperate, she can't walk away. With no other choice, Emily lets him stay with her.
Neither of them expected to develop feelings for the other, so how can things possibly work out when they fall in love?
Complicating matters is her friend, Daniel Roth, who secretly loves her. But there's more to Daniel's instant hatred of Wilhelm than jealousy over a woman. Daniel knows something isn't right with her new friend. And he intends to get to the bottom of it with the help of his elderly great-grandfather - an ex-Nazi hunter who has his own ax to grind.

In a world where every heartbeat could be their last, Johann and Claire must decide whether love is worth the ultimate price. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Claire pressed herself against Johann, breath uneven, fingers digging into his coat. She tilted her head slightly, feeling his warm breath against her neck, sending a shiver down her spine. "They could be anywhere," she whispered, voice trembling. Johann's hands cupped her face, thumbs tracing her jaw, lingering there like he couldn't let go. "Then we stay... just for now. Here. Together." A nervous smile tugged at her lips. "And you call this a good idea?" "I don't care," he murmured, voice low, rough with need. "I need this. You... I can't wait. Not a second longer." Her pulse throbbed against his chest. "Johann..." He leaned closer, lips brushing hers, teeth grazing her bottom lip, holding her like he feared she might vanish. "Stay with me. Feel this. Every heartbeat, every breath-remember it. Remember us-before the world drags us apart." Her fingers clung to him, nails pressing into his coat. His hands tightened around her waist, holding her impossibly close. For a moment, the war, the fear, the shadows outside-they all vanished, leaving only the heat between them, fragile and burning.
