Violin prodigy Etta Spencer had big plans for her future, but a tragic accident has put her once-bright career at risk. Closely tied to her musical skill, however, is a mysterious power she doesn't even know she has. When her two talents collide during a stressful performance, Etta is drawn back hundreds of years through time. Etta wakes,confused and terrified, in 1776, in the midst a fierce sea battle. Nicholas Carter, the handsome young prize master of a privateering ship, has been hired to retrieve Etta and deliver her unharmed to the Ironwoods, a powerful family in the Colonies—the very same one that orchestrated her jump back, and one Nicholas himself has mysteries ties to. But discovering she can time travel is nothing compared to the shock of discovering the true reason the Ironwoods have snared her in their web. Another traveler has stolen an object of untold value from them, and, if Etta can find it, they will return her to her own time. Out of options, Etta and Nicholas embark on a perilous journey across centuries and continents, piecing together clues left behind by the mysterious traveler. But as they draw closer to each other and the end of their search, the true nature of the object, and the dangerous game the Ironwoods are playing, comes to light—threatening to separate her not only from Nicholas, but her path home... forever.

"Loved this book! It’s great for all pirate lovers but also has lots of other adventures all wrapped up in one book, but it doesn’t feel too rushed or too slow. Great slow-burn romance and, unlike some fantasy books, it’s not hard to get into. Also great for anyone into period pieces, talks a lot about clothes and cultures of different periods all over the world"
"Okay - WOW. As many of the reviews for this book state, some parts are verrryyyyyy slow. This would be rated 5 stars if it wasn’t for that. Time travel, adventure, historic places, romance, what more could you want? <br/><br/>I was hooked from the beginning and at the end of every chapter, I wanted to keep reading to find out what happens. I am very eager to get my hands on the next book in the series!"
