Texan native Pearl Benton arrives in Australia expecting to vacation with her family, but instead, she's carried by a wormhole to Roman-ruled Egypt. Kidnapped, made a slave--Pearl doesn't understand why God abandoned her to such a horrible existence. Another time traveler works for her master, and the chance of finding the wormhole that robbed them both of normal, just might be worth putting up with his incessant teasing. Might.
An Aussie stockman turned fleet helmsman, Trey Bradley has spent years building a life for himself in Alexandria. When his boss decides to use Pearl as a bargaining tool in a summons with the Emperor Nero, he asks Trey to accompany them as her translator. Trey wants to help Pearl escape as he's helped countless others, but God says "no". How can he help deliver Pearl to Nero and live with himself? Can that truly be what God wants?
As they journey to Rome, Pearl and Trey struggle to set aside their ambitions and choose God's will above their own, even at the cost of life and love.

Time is his weapon. Love is her shield. Together, they may be unstoppable-or doomed. Kael Dela Vega can bend time itself. With a flicker of will, seconds freeze, minutes rewind, and hours vanish. But every use of his gift cuts deeper into his soul, chaining him to a destiny he cannot escape. For years, he has lived in the shadows, hunted by those who crave his power.

But when she steps into his world, her presence ignites something terrifying: Kael's power grows stronger when she is near. And someone has noticed. The Cult of the Eternal Hour-led by a supernatural rival who covets both Kael's gift and Amara's heart-will stop at nothing to claim them. Every case Amara takes, every night Kael saves her, the enemy draws closer, weaving them into a deadly prophecy: that their love will either conquer time itself... or shatter it forever. As danger closes in, Kael and Amara must decide if love is worth defying fate-because every second they steal together brings them closer to the final hour.Complete
