   Summary

   Christine Rutherford is caught between the painful silence of her mother, Josephine, and the mystery surrounding her father’s death. When a confrontation leads to a shocking revelation, Christine’s world is turned upside down. In a fit of anger, she drives off and stumbles upon a circle of ancient standing stones, only to find herself inexplicably transported back to 1777, where she meets William Ransom who steals her heart completely.

   But then when her heart breaks, and she feels stranded in a sea of unreciprocated love, there is another man. A good man who gives her all his attention, and loves her desperately. Will she learn to love him in return, or will the reunion with William prove to be irresistible? She still loves him, but there is one problem; she cannot forgive him for breaking her heart.
