Book Description
Get swept through time with this complete time travel romance boxed set trilogy full of heart-gripping romance and sexy battles of wills and wits. Can these spirited and snarky women find time-tested love with a wounded warrior, tortured hero, and widowed blacksmith? Charmed by the Past She’s researching her family’s genealogy, but she never expected to become history herself. Sarah tumbles back in time to 1919—and straight into the hospital room of a brooding, wounded infantry corporal. Jacob is done with war and everything it involves, but the last thing he’s prepared for is the beautiful, mysterious woman who barges into his room demanding his help—or the long-dead feelings she stirs inside him. But when an old wartime enemy sets his sights on Sarah, Jacob will stop at nothing to keep her safe . . . even if it means losing her for good. Sirens of the Past He thought he was falling into hell . . . until the voice of an angel offered him redemption. A near-death skirmish thrusts Corporal Richard “Dick” Stevens sixty-nine years into the future to 1988, where he lands on a horse-breeding farm tended to by a beautiful, feisty woman. Camilla spends her days training to be an opera singer while her nights are spent mucking out horse stalls in exchange for free room and board on the farm. Frustration gnaws at Cami since her inheritance would cover the training she’s desperate for, but she can only receive it once she’s married. When Dick disrupts her check on the horses one evening, the sexy stranger immediately gets under her skin. She’s determined to brush him off, but with her dreams on the line, a plot surfacing to end Cami’s career, and a growing attraction to this infuriating mystery man, a marriage of convenience may be the only thing to save them both. Forged by the Past His heart was cold iron, until she broke through the fissures and lit him aflame. Beth caught her new husband cheating on her on their wedding day and flees to an antique shop, where an old artifact sends her through time to 1770. For the widower blacksmith Thomas, his days are hollow and empty as he forges bayonets en masse to feed the needs of a burgeoning colonial Boston. But when Beth is mistaken for a serving girl, she’s not prepared for the charade . . . or her dealings with the quiet, hulking blacksmith who makes her run as hot as his forge, even through his icy coldness. Meanwhile, Thomas struggles to tamp down his attraction to the enticing, curvaceous redhead. But with Beth’s time in the past running out, Thomas must face losing his heart again or risk Beth’s life in the process. Reader advisory: These books contain mature themes and adult language.

Book Description
From the USA TODAY bestselling author of Sweet Thing and Nowhere But Here comes a love story about a Craigslist “missed connection” post that gives two people a second chance at love fifteen years after they were separated in New York City. To the Green-eyed Lovebird: We met fifteen years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House. You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more. We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other. Yet, somehow, it all fell apart. We lost touch the summer after graduation when I went to South America to work for National Geographic. When I came back, you were gone. A part of me still wonders if I pushed you too hard after the wedding… I didn’t see you again until a month ago. It was a Wednesday. You were rocking back on your heels, balancing on that thick yellow line that runs along the subway platform, waiting for the F train. I didn’t know it was you until it was too late, and then you were gone. Again. You said my name; I saw it on your lips. I tried to will the train to stop, just so I could say hello. After seeing you, all of the youthful feelings and memories came flooding back to me, and now I’ve spent the better part of a month wondering what your life is like. I might be totally out of my mind, but would you like to get a drink with me and catch up on the last decade and a half? M

For her instructors in the twenty-first century, it meant painstaking calculations and careful monitoring of the rendezvous location where Kivrin would be received. But a crisis strangely linking past and future strands Kivrin in a bygone age as her fellows try desperately to rescue her. In a time of superstition and fear, Kivrin—barely of age herself—finds she has become an unlikely angel of hope during one of history’s darkest hours.
