She came to London to find her sister. Time-traveling with a hunky marquis-pirate was definitely not part of the plan.

She's an antiques dealer who has a life-changing encounter...
Maggie Blake is jogging through Hyde Park, worried about her missing sister, Emma, when a shockingly handsome man drops out of a tree and lands at her feet. He looks like a pirate, speaks like a gentleman, and claims he's been framed for piracy. Then he notices the antique key Maggie wears on a chain-and insists it's his. The moment he grabs it, the world spins, history rewrites itself, and Maggie is hurled back to 1814... a very bad time to be mistaken for a pirate enthusiast.

He's a marquis wanted for piracy... until a remarkable encounter...
Simon Herrington, Marquis of Wildford, is a loyal privateer for the Crown, falsely accused of piracy and facing the hangman's noose. When he is flung into the future, he encounters the most extraordinary woman he's ever seen. And when they're thrust back to his own time, Simon is determined to uncover her identity-and why she holds the key that could decide his fate.

Fate is fickle. Love is reckless. Time is the real villain...
Thrust together by fate and time, Maggie and Simon struggle to resist their growing attraction-and the deepening feelings that follow. Falling in love is easy. Staying together across two centuries? Not so much. With history closing in and time tugging them toward separate futures, they must decide if love is strong enough to defy it... or if some hearts are destined to be broken by time itself.
