Back in Time for Love

A dangerous prank transports rancher Marissa Wilder and architect Steven Langdon from the 21st Century back to the Old West. Will these accidental time travelers survive vicious outlaws, murderous gunslingers, an overbearing 1880 fiancee, and Marissa’s controlling puritanical Victorian ancestors? Marissa despises the “”Amorous Architect”” whose investor group wants to demolish her family ranch for a golf resort. She decides to cool him down with an unexpected dip in a numbing icy river. She sees the dumb greenhorn drowning and dives in to rescue him. They awaken outside of 1880 Tucson. Soon Marissa realizes as a woman she has no rights in this century, and must rely on her knowledge of Arizona history and Steven’s help to survive. Steven’s mission in Tucson is to buy Marissa’s ranch and make good on his bet to seduce her while he’s there. Instead, a time travel portal whisks them 140 years in the past. They’re faced with assorted Wild West horrors and must overcome their mutual mistrust as they struggle to find a way home. As Marissa and Steven are forced to work together in secret to overcome continued obstacles, they begin to see each other’s strengths and understand what made them how they are. But will it be enough to save them? Author’s Note: I’ve written over 20 non-fiction self-help books BUT love reading time-travel romance novels. This unwritten story haunted me for decades. I finished editing it and published it in honor of my 70th year on Earth. Hope it touches your heart as it’s touched mine. —- ISBN: 9798862590340
