During an archaeological dig, French historian Dr. Genevieve Vivi Moreau is swept through a temporal portal and thrust into eighteenth-century colonial St. Lucia.
Determined to find the place where she first arrived and uncover a way home, Genevieve's search is complicated by Jean-Luc Dubois—a proud plantation owner who is as suspicious of the mysterious woman as he is captivated by her. She speaks his language but defies every expectation of the world he knows.
As Genevieve's desperate search for a way back begins to fade, an unexpected love blossoms between them. Jean-Luc is drawn to her intelligence, courage, and fiercely independent spirit, while Genevieve finds herself falling for the honorable man behind the title.
But love comes at a cost.
Together they must face the brutal realities of colonial life, the risks of changing history, and the consequences of a future neither of them can predict. When the chance to return to her own time finally arrives, Genevieve must make an impossible choice: go home... or remain with the man she loves, forever altering both their destinies.
