Critically acclaimed author Gwyn Cready leaves readers on the edge of their seats in a provocative new time travel romance 

Campbell Stratford hopes her biography of court painter Anthony van Dyck will give her the credibility she needs to land her dream job as a museum curator. One day, while doing research on Van Dyck and his successor Peter Lely, Cam is abruptly transported to Lely's studio in 1673. 

Peter is intrigued by the mysterious newcomer who is definitely more than she makes out to be—but then again, Peter has strange secrets of his own. The uneasy friends become star-crossed lovers when the centuries part them once more, forcing them to choose which they believe in: fate or true love?
