She’d gone on a blind date, accepted said blind date’s invitation to go to England as part of his university department’s faculty sabbatical, then hopped cheerfully on a plane with him two weeks later. Things had seemed so logical at the time. She took a deep breath and forced herself to examine the turns of events that had brought her to her present perch.

Surely Fate had known she wasn’t at all interested in stark, bare castles or knights in rusting armor. Things were definitely not progressing as she had planned. Yet as she stood at the top of a medieval circular staircase and peered down into its gloomy depths, she had to wonder if someone other than herself might be at the helm of her ship, as it were.

Kurland has a talent for mixing the pageantry of medieval England and the romance of knightly chivalry with the gritty reality of everyday life. But even if Jessica wants to stay in 1260 England with her battle-hardened knight, will the forces that drew her to him across time allow her to remain? And if Richard gives his wary heart into Jessica's keeping, can he be sure she won't carry it away with her into the future and leave him alone? But for Richard, whose own dreams of happiness were beaten out of him as a child, it takes a little longer to accept that Jessica is the mate that fate and time have sent him.

On a trip to England, Jessica walks in an estate garden and wishes on a star for a 'fair and gallant knight.

But what she really wants is a husband and family. Jessica Blakely appears to have it all as composer-in-residence at a prestigious university.
