Overview

Note: Fabulous New Cover!

CHILDREN LOST IN TIME . . . WOUNDED HEARTS FIND HEALING TOGETHER.

When Vickie Cheney and Adrian Bennett meet in Charleston, South Carolina, at the end of World War II, both are lost souls. The handsome RAF pilot and the beautiful Army nurse are haunted by memories of war. But even more tragic, each has lost a beloved child in a recent devastating fire.

But are the children really gone? Even as Vickie and Adrian are drawn together in shared passion and grief, both see poignant images of the lost children in the Charleston streets. But are the sightings real, or merely figments of their grief-crazed imaginations? Why do the children always run away, and why do they appear in clothing from an earlier age?

Soon Vickie and Adrian embark on a fantastical journey through time to solve the mystery and find the lost children. But they arrive at a moment in time only days before the great Charleston earthquake will destroy the city, while being pursued by a villain determined to kill them all. Can they find the children in time? Will their wounded souls find healing together? And can a miracle really happen, a miracle that will prove that love is stronger than time . . . and even death?

"EMBERS OF TIME is a very fast moving and exciting time-travel. Ms. Riley's plot stimulates the senses and her characters leave a lasting impression. The protagonists' dilemma soon became mine and their grief stirred my compassion. Nothing is more romantic than a love that transcends time."
