Summary

Two people from very different worlds trying for the almost impossible—a future together.
 
Tegan McCall hasn’t got time for men. She’s too busy trying to save the failing plumbing company that she inherited from her dad. But when she meets Blake Stone, she’s thrown. Not only is he off-the-radar hot, but he actually listens when she tells him about her design concepts. It’s a shame he can’t save her company.
 
Billionaire Blake Stone is blown away by Tegan. This she-warrior is so different from the glossy, vacant women who usually drift through his life. He offers her a job fitting bathrooms in his high-end hotel in Canada’s premium ski resort. Sure, the deadlines are tight and Tegan’s company has limited resources, but he’s still being business-minded. And there’s no way that Tegan will ever find out that he owns the hotel or has awarded her the contract, right?
 
Tegan moves to Whistler to work on the hotel, but things aren’t what they appear. She doesn’t get to meet the hotel’s mysterious owner, and the guy whom she deals with is unfriendly, even hostile. Her suspicions are aroused and soon she’s investigating…and uncovering things people would rather stayed buried.
 
Blake and Tegan are two people from very different worlds. If they want any chance of a future together, they’ll have to navigate not just sabotage and deceit—but lust and love.

    Shakespeare has never been this sexy!
 
One evening when helping a colleague stage The Merchant of Venice, English professor Jessica Randall slides momentarily back to 1598. Later that night, she lands for good in the chambers of one William Shakespeare, a down-on-his luck playwright.
 
His biggest problem of late has been a non-stop stream of Jessicas apparating into his chambers nightly. Yet Jessica's appearance halts the visitations, though neither have a clue why. Can she get back to 2018? They don't know that either, and together they begin to craft a life together, all the while trying to break the time travel curse and avoid falling in love.
 
As Jessica grapples with practical (what is and how does one put on a farthingale?) and emotional (how to risk your heart when everything might disappear in an instant?) aspects of adapting to Elizabethan London, she must try to solve the mystery of the other Jessicas. More importantly, she must figure out how to get home without suffering from the broken heart she knows she can't avoid.
 
Despite being thwarted at every turn, Jessica manages to navigate her new world and her old one and save not only herself but Will Shakespeare and his legacy.
