Kindle Edition Amazon Books We Love Amazon Books2read Category:  Romance Publisher: Books We Love ISBN-10:  1771456884 Type: Fiction Pages: 84 Copyright: September 4, 2015 ISBN-13: 9781771456906 Price: $2.99 (eBook) To whoever finds this journal: I started out this rainy November morning in 1988 as an archeology intern uncovering sunken treasure from the Steamboat Arabia, but due to circumstances I don’t understand, at the end of the day I found myself on board the Arabia, back in 1856, the year she sank. **** Thus Brianna begins her journal, finding herself rescued by Jake Worth, a passenger on the Arabia; a man with secrets of his own and no desire to be responsible for another human being. But fate has thrown them together, and while Bri can’t explain how she got there, she is fascinated by the fact that she is living the history she has only read about. Bri pulls Jake into the problems of the people on board almost on a daily basis and he reluctantly helps if only to keep her out of trouble. She is attracted to him, but since she wasn’t on the original manifest, she fears getting involved will alter history in some way. Yet when Jake comes to her in passion she can’t resist her feelings. As the steamboat paddlewheel takes them closer and closer to that fateful day, will they have a choice in their destiny?           Excerpt “She’s sinking!” One man yelled as he shoved his way past them. “God help us.” "No matter what, don't let go of my hand." Jake’s hand squeezed hard on Brianna's. “Where do we go?” “At least as high as the hurricane deck.” She had to shout to be heard over the whistle and the clamoring of people – women and children trying to hold on to the rail that was now twisted and breaking apart as the steamer tilted further. She didn’t doubt the cargo held loosely on deck by a mere rope was already sliding into the river. She tried to latch on to anything that would balance her. “Ouch. Wait.” She jerked on Jake’s hand. Her other hand had caught on the rough rail and pain zinged up her arm. “Wait.” People pushed and shoved; children cried. She stepped back to see why her hand was caught and saw the tiny sparkle of light reflecting off metal. “Dear God. The ring.” It had to stay on board. She twisted her hand to free it from where the ring had caught on a nail. She thumbed it but it wouldn’t slide off. Frantically she shook loose of Jake to use her other hand to remove the ring; to drop it where she was. She reached out for him again, fingers just touching, when something or someone slammed hard into her back, pushing her toward the broken railing. Everything went black.

4 out of 5 stars--Intriguing Time Travel
ByJanet Walterson Interesting premise. Characters are interesting. Both hero and heroine have secrets. She's from the present. He's from the past. Question is can they find happiness and be united in the here or the there?
