Sinopse

The Murder of Delicia is the absorbing story of a woman who married a man who was not good enough for her. She realizes it so late that she starts to believe that there is no way out of it. A number of meaningful dialogues by Delicia blow the hypocrisy and double standards of a society in which people turn a blind eye to infidelity and rude behavior by men yet, without a second thought, shames a woman for doing far less. This remarkable book will appeal to any woman who has had her intellectual and spiritual nature demeaned by an oppressive man.

    A runaway bride from 1890 lands in the 21st century. 
    In 1890, Josie Goodwin believes in love and isn’t about to marry for anything less—especially the business partner of her father. After boarding a train to hide out at her brother’s ranch, she never expects to land in the future—or to fall for the aggravating, alluring town sheriff.  
    Garrett Kellogg is not interested in love or a relationship.  
    He doesn’t need a vivacious, time traveling woman in his bachelor life.  
    But Josie steals his heart—and then she vanishes. 
    TIME FOR LOVE is a western romance that shows anything is possible when love is involved. 
    **Time for Love is a complete stand-alone and can be read without reading any of the other books or spin-off series, but if you prefer to read in order, start with Time to Save a Cowboy as the characters and families do interconnect.**

And although the work takes up much of his energy, it also gives him the chance to continue his own investigation. Lei seeks his old enemy Kiang.
