TAKEN
​Book 1

Matt was my husband. I was supposed to be with him for the rest of my life when the accident happened and took him away from me. I wouldn't love anyone else. I believed.

Until, I meet Leif. He tells me to trust him and to take my chance with him.

Except, I'm his hostage. Not only am I his hostage, but time is holding me captive too, and I'm suddenly trapped in a world that is not mine. The year is 1756, and I'm strangely in Massachusetts Bay Colony. War between Great Britain and France explodes across New England, and terrorizes the territory.

I don't know how I got here, and all I want to do is find a way home. But, the more time I'm stranded here, the more I spend time with Leif, and I am compelled toward him.

Our lives are becoming inextricably entwined, and I'm afraid of losing everything that I once knew and loved.

I begin questioning  where I truly belong as I think of the life I left behind.

I wonder if I'm going to withstand this, because all I know for certain is he is bound to my survival... and to the truth of why I'm here.

Time broke me. Then, it stole me before it healed me. Like each stitch sewn into cloth, each day weaves into the fabric of time, tying me to a man in unbreakable love.

And as I grapple with my new reality in 1756, I realize that I'm falling for him in a way that is uncommon; it is not only important to my survival, but it's fundamental to my existence.

War rages across the territory and Leif balances between his duty as a British officer and self-preservation as he serves the king. Leif's life is a mystery to me. But as I learn more about him, I discover the perils he faces to his own survival and I fear for him.

​I loved and lost once, and I've come to see that time and fate show no mercy. Now, I wonder if this war with France will tear us apart. After everything that's happened, will Leif and I overcome the threat of separation and outlast time?
