She never planned to return...

To save her husband's life, Valerie Whitfield makes the momentous decision to travel to the twenty-first century. But disaster follows when a time-traveling accident leaves her and Alec stranded there, far from their beloved family and home in seventeenth-century Virginia. When they lose their best hope of returning, Valerie's dreams of holding her loved ones again seem to be slipping through her fingers. Will she remain lost in time forever, untethered from all she holds dear?

Meanwhile, tragedy is unfolding back in Virginia for her sister, Louisa. Powerless to help from across the centuries, Valerie and Alec can only keep fighting to get home. But if they manage to succeed against all the odds, what devastation will they find when they return...?
