About this audiobook

From USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Hefner

One woman bred to save the world…

Dr. Elaine “Lainey” Randolph was born with one sole purpose: to prevent the past. With her brilliant mind and unwavering spirit, she works tirelessly to solve the equations that will finally unlock the mystery of time travel. Then, she will leave the post-apocalyptic future her grandfather created and travel back in time to prevent his calamitous actions.

When handsome military captain Hunter Rhodes appears at Lainey’s remote scientific hub, he offers her protection. But there are strings attached to the mysterious soldier’s proffer, and Lainey finds herself wary of the man who stokes unwelcome longing and desire in her unemotional heart. For Lainey is a scientist, obdurate and dispassionate toward the notion of romantic love.

As Lainey’s band of ragtag scientists and loyal soldiers endeavor to escape the dystopian future, the evil New Establishment threatens to destroy them all. In their unpredictable timeline, the nefarious regime has become all-powerful and will stop at nothing to ensure complete world domination…

This novel is brought to you by a self-proclaimed science dork and lover of romance, fantasy and sci-fi. The reader can expect time travel shenanigans, smokin' hot chemistry between main characters in their late 30s and 40s and twists along the way. Enjoy the journey!

I enjoy sci-fi, but I will say I wasn't sure how'd I like it in a romance book. But I'd be all about a time travel movie back when I still watched movies so this story definitely made it on my TBR list. And I wasn't disappointed! I was intrigued by the ins and outs of the "science" part of time travel...but no worries it wasn't too detailed....and curveballs thrown toward the characters. I had many "ohhh" moments. Definitely a great listen

This was a really interesting read. Set in the future of a post apocalyptic world, Dr Lainey Randolph has been brought up by her scientist father to save the world by building a time machine to go back in time and stop the destruction. The time travelling element of the story was explained really well, and what could have been confusing was actually very easy to follow. The author manages to weave in lots of scientific explanations without it being confusing or too much - it was a good balance.

So I am not big on sci-fi and I haven't read a time travel, with that said this was a great book. The characters were well developed and the sexy scenes were well written. This is my first Rebecca Hefner book and can't wait for more!
