Description

The past isn't over, it's an opening. The future isn't hidden, it's a trap. 

If she ever wants to see him again, she'll have to take the risk...

Publishers Weekly Starred Review: "Funny, Romantic & Harrowing!"

After reconnecting with the one-that-got-away—and then losing him in a pandemic—Iz struggles to survive alone in a remote mountain cabin. As loneliness and despair set in, she starts taking in abandoned pets—until an ill-equipped, clean-shaven man knocks on her door and offers her a one-way trip to the past. With humanity teetering on the edge, she sacrifices everything, including her beloved pets, in an attempt to alter the dystopian present—and see her lover one last time.

She's rushed into a hastily built time machine...

...and awakens on a tropical beach, buck naked—and suffering from side-effects—but 20 years younger!

With only hours to live, she must persuade her future lover to fix their relationship and thereby set off a chain of events that will erase the pandemic—no one is quite sure how.

Our young hero falls hard for her—a middle-aged woman in a vixen's body—until she blurts out that she's from the future and came to "improve" him.

Turns out, it's not him that needs fixing, it's her—and it's far too late for that.

 Across the infinite expanse of space and time, love endures...

(Unfortunately, it’s not going to be enough.)


The past isn't over, it's an opening. The future isn't hidden, it's a trap. 

If she ever wants to see him again, she'll have to take the risk...

Most people wouldn’t think twice about taking a second chance, but what if you were offered a third? Would you sacrifice your own life just to have a few more moments with the love of your life? *Crossing in Time* takes us on a time-traveling journey where two people risk everything—not only to save their world but to find their way back to each other. The story weaves through twists and turns, ending on a gripping cliffhanger. I loved exploring the dynamics between the main characters and how their relationships with others in the story added depth and intrigue. Their interactions felt genuine and brought an emotional complexity that kept me hooked. I’m eager to continue this series and see where their journey takes them next!
