Publisher Description

Centuries ago, by a scaffold in Manhattan, rose petals drifted gently to the ground...

...like snow on a wintry Massachusetts night. Melody Tarleton is driving home for Christmas when a man—clad in Revolutionary War-era costume—appears out of nowhere, right in the path of her car. Shaken, she takes the injured stranger in, listening with concern to Jake Mallory’s fantastic claim that he’s a Patriot soldier, sentenced to death by British authorities. The last thing he remembers is the tug of the noose.

Safe at her parents’ house, Melody concocts a story to explain the handsome holiday guest with the courtly manners, strange clothes and nasty bump on the head. Mark, her close friend who wishes he were more, is skeptical and her family is fascinated—though not half so fascinated as Melody herself. Jake is passionate, charming and utterly unlike anyone she’s ever met. Can he really be who he claims? And can a man from the distant past be the future she truly longs for?

With the aid of enchanted petals, ancient potions and the peculiar magic of the season, Melody and Jake embark on an unimaginable Christmas adventure—and discover a love that transcends time.

"I thought this was a decent read, not one of this authors better works. The proof reading left something to be desired, something that should have been caught by the editor. I did however enjoy the story line. Love across time at the time of year when all things are possible"

    " Quick read, interesting story line, but could have been expanded to not seem so forced (because it was short as most shorter stories tend to be). "

    " Anyone who has read the Outlander books will recognize the basic plot here. Christmas Present, the American Revolution, and one or two twists keep it interesting, but just. Everybody finds his or her true love in the end and they all get to celebrate Christmas. "

    " Annoying heroine, unbelievable actions, and an author who obviously didn't understand the technological terms she was tossing around "

    " This was a novel I received from my boyfriend's grandmother, and I could not be happier that it was given to me. The transition between time travel was brilliantly written and never felt too "sci-fi." I would definitely recommend it to others. "

    " Meh. Cute, but kinda like sugary candy. Good nuggets, but I actually had to turn it off a couple times cause it got so cheezy. Nice to read a feel good book though. "

    " I was really looking forward to reading this book. The jacket cover made it sound really good. It wasn't. It took forever for anything to progress and when it finally did, among the whining of the main character, it was very slow and annoying. I wanted to like it but just coudn't. "

    " This was a fairly compelling story but I knew how it was going to end with about 85 pages to go. I finished it but the ending was a little annoying to get through. Interesting concept but not very well written. "

    " Ugh. This was ridiculous. I get the supernatural part, but did it have to be that ridiculous? Also, Melody, the lead female, got on my nerves for the majority of the book. To the point that I started skipping her altogether. "

    " this was a fun read. I love back in time themes and this was perfect with a man from the revolutionary war coming to our time and needing to get back home. it is the type of book that would make a great Hallmark Hall of fame movie. "
