Two women from different cultures and centuries - and both samurai

Bebe Bell is a modern Englishwoman who is living in Japan and time-slipped into the mind of samurai, Kai Matsuda, who is fighting in the 1860’s for the future of his country in its civil war which changed the world forever. In her own life, Bebe meets Kenji, a young man who has a secret he cannot reveal to anyone ... not even to Bebe as they fall in love. Can she risk telling him she is also a samurai in another time?
Yoshi is a young aristocratic woman forced to disguise herself as samurai in order to survive the war as it surrounds her and her country decides its fate. She meets Kai when he has Bebe in his mind. This changes everything as Kai finds himself more and more attracted to Yoshi. But Yoshi is ambitious and has no time for a lowly samurai like Kai. When all their paths converge no one can foresee the outcome.

Vivid writing … opened doors to the world of samurai - Amazon reviewer.
