Now And Forever
Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
Three full-length adventures in one bundle.
A powerful time-travel historical romance, Now And Then explores native Canadian history and the complicated path one woman chooses when her destiny takes her on an unusual journey to another time and another love.
A Distant Echo--Fortune hunters Tom and Jackson watch a movie about a long-ago tragedy. An Alberta mountain slides across the small town of Frank, trapping and killing the residents beneath a million tons of rock, also trapping coal miners deep underground.
The disaster occurred over a hundred years ago, but suddenly, inexplicably, the two adventurers are transported back in time to find that the town of Frank is intact, the disaster still a year ahead.
Can they warn people about what's about to happen? If they fall in love in another time, can they ever return home?
They're about to learn lessons involving kindness, generosity, and the power of love--but they're also about to encounter brutality, disbelief, poverty and frustration.
The lives they had before are nothing more than a distant echo.
Yesterday's Gold--
A Romantic Time-Travel Adventure In Canada's North.
Hannah Gilmore is about to be married to a member of one of Victoria B.C.'s notable families. But first, she's promised to take her mother, Daisy, to Barkerville, the historical site of a B.C. gold rush, to search out the resting place of an ancestor. Daisy insists on bringing her incontinent dog. And the trip becomes impossibly complicated when her mother invites her difficult friend, Elvira, along. A bridge collapses, and suddenly Hannah and her irritating companions are in Barkerville, but it's 1868, the height of the Cariboo gold rush. Hannah and her companions soon learn that women have no rights in this time and place.
But the three women are stubborn, intrepid, and imaginative.
Hannah, who was about to be married, finds that now she's falling in love, and the man she loves is accused of murder, a hanging offence.
Can a modern-day woman trapped in a long ago time find a way to save the man she loves?
Giới thiệu tác giả
Best-selling writer Bobby Hutchinson writes stories about almost everything, as long as everything involves romance, quirky people, outrageous kids, deafness, time travel, or medicine, with most of which she's familiar.
(Well, maybe not time travel. But who knows?)
She lives in a funky little cottage in the Canadian Rockies. In the summer, she hauls her tiny trailer, Calamity Jane, to campgrounds. In the winter, she hibernates.
She faints at the sight of blood, although her best-selling medical romance series, Emergency, does have the occasional scene involving bodily fluids.
She's written over 60 books, mostly romance, with a few memoirs added. How Not To Run A B&B is now being made into a film.
She lives in the land of possibility. And she's now writing faster than ever, because at 83, who knows when she'll head off to seek the Great Perhaps?
