A wonderful new time-travel romance by the award-winning, bestselling author of A Handful of Heaven and The Enchantment.

Book Synopsis

When a romance writer discovers that she's magically entered her own novel, she must team up with the gruff, alluring protagonist to find her way back home--from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Women.

"Hannah is superb at delving into her main characters' psyches and delineating nuances of feeling."--The Washington Post Book World

Romance writer Alaina Costanza has given up on dreams and fairy tales. Then one storm-tossed, enchanted night she is plunged back in time to the wild, Western world of her newest novel. Disoriented and disbelieving, she is kidnapped by her own character, a ruthless outlaw only known as Killian.

At first Alaina is not afraid. After all, she wrote this story, invented the notoriously sexy Killian. Now she's matching him hard-bitten word for word . . . until she's hit with the shock of her life: this is all too real. Once wisecracking and invincible, she is now a mother desperate to return to the child she left behind--one hundred years in the future.

Thrown together by fate, Alaina and Killian will discover a love too magnificent to last a single lifetime. But even magic has a price, and time is running out. For the sake of Alaina's child, they must risk it all and fight for a future that depends on lightning striking . . . twice.
