TRUSTING THE UNKNOWN IS ONE STEP AWAY FROM LOVE OR DISASTER
A 400 YEAR OLD CLOCK REVEALS A HISTORY THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN
COMING SOON
-
IIn the year 1987 Kate Piassi, an urban archaeologist from New York City, receives an extraordinary phone call. A four-hundred-year-old clock she theorized existed in her master's thesis was discovered at the bottom of the Thames River. A once in a lifetime opportunity, she is sent to London to study the artifact. Soon after arriving she finds herself inexplicably drawn into encounters with strangers that feel familiar. The dreams she has written off as exhaustion strangely align with those of Jim, an Englishman she just met. Fed by their powerful connection, Kate's life becomes entwined with that of Abigal Palin, the inquisitive daughter of a bridge master on London Bridge in 1587. Kate and Jim find themselves questioning who they really are as all signs point to the clock as the keeper of more than traditional time.
1587 and 1987 meld together on London Bridge, setting the stage for an ages old phenomenon to unfold. Is history as it should be or was there another story that was meant to be?

In a war-torn world ravaged by disaster, Kyel Randall is a quiet soldier who follows the orders of his militaristic nation apathetically. To survive his less-than-ideal life he has become emotionally numb - until he finds a terrified young woman hiding from his nation's invasion of her island. Something inside him shifts and he impetuously acts to protect her, an uncharacteristically brave move that could land him in prison.
Mira had never ventured beyond the boundaries of her tiny hamlet before she was captured. Naïve and scared, she finds herself making a split-second decision to either trust an enemy soldier she knows nothing about or face the uncertainty of being held hostage on her own.
Thrust into a situation neither are prepared for, Kyel and Mira quickly find themselves with no choice but to rely on each other as the world around them becomes dangerously unstable. Caught between painful betrayal and impending war, their growing bond is tested when the lives of those they love are put in jeopardy and a risky journey into the unknown emerges as the only way to protect them. -
