Synopsis

Can love between two hearts withstand the tragic death sentence of history to rise again in a more auspicious time and place? And if so, what if their two unknowing souls are so wary of pain that they refuse to see the possibility of a new beginning?

The passion between Stephen, a British major loyal to King George, and Katrina, who believes her fellow colonists are justified in rebellion, is instantaneous, joyous, and all-consuming. Katrina’s family despises her relationship with the hated Redcoat, but the two find such happiness in each other’s arms that they believe their love can survive any difficulty. Amidst the beauty of the Hudson Valley and the looming threat of war, they cling to each other and to the hope that both sides will see reason.

Fast forward 250 years. Catherine and Etienne are determined to avoid the complications and pain that relationships can cause. Safe in her predictable suburban life and content with her work, Catherine wants nothing to do with passion or commitment. Angry and resentful after a terrorist bombing steals his eyesight and derails his career as a photojournalist, Etienne retreats further behind the walls he’s always had in place around his heart. As soon as the two meet, however, the barriers they have so carefully constructed are pushed aside by passion, laughter, a strangely instantaneous intimacy, and a determined pup. When dangerous choices threaten to tear them apart in an echo of Stephen and Katrina’s fate, Catherine and Etienne are forced to choose: is it better to lock their hearts away or risk everything for love?

New York Times bestselling author Sherry Thomas says, "Meg Napier devises an ingenious plot." See that ingenuity spring to life in the heart-wrenching tale of passion that spans centuries!
