Crossing In Time
(Between Two Evils #1)
D.L. Orton
If someone took everything you live for,
How far would you go to get it back?
When offered a one-way trip to the past, Isabel
sacrifices everything for a chance to change the
present—and see her murdered lover one last time. After arriving twenty
years in the past, buck-naked and mortally wounded, she has 24 hours to
persuade a 19-year-old guy to change his future. But that’s easier said than
done, as success means losing him to a brainy, smart-mouthed bombshell
(her younger self), and that's a heart breaker, save the world or not.
• Race against the clock through a dystopian nightmare.
• Climb naked into an untested time machine carrying only a
mysterious seashell and a lover’s promise.
• Wake up twenty years younger on a tropical beach, buck
naked and mortally wounded, with your heart in your throat.
This is a journey of passion, loss, and redemption that will make your
pulse gallop and your palms sweat, have you laughing out loud through
your tears, and leave you flush with the sublime pleasure of being in the arms
of the one you love.
CROSSING IN TIME is a genre-defying love story. Think The Time Travelers
Wife meets Men Are From Mars on The Road, then add a pinch of Richard
K. Morgan for good sex (in his fiction), a curtsy to Madeleine L'Engle for
wrinkles (in time), and a tail wag to Margaret Atwood (because we should
all wag more and bark less). ❤ Fall in love! ❤
