To guard herself from the perils of her own sensuality, Rose married a man she didn't love. Now, two years after his death, she's not sure she can really love anyone. She's not even sure she cares… To achieve what he'd always known was his birthright, Luke had to struggle against tremendous odds. But when science discovered a way to access the past, a powerful bureaucracy found a way to use Luke. Now, torn from his own time, everything and everyone he knew, he can see no reason to go on living… An instant of attraction, uninvited but inescapable, brings Luke and Rose together. Together, they discover the strength to love, the will to trust and hope. But will these things be enough to carry them over walls of suspicion, guilt, bigotry, and hate?

When she'd finished her first story and it was published, she took off running and never looked back. She is currently in Montana, writing as fast as she can.
