During an experimental procedure to treat Samantha Bennett’s clinical depression, her heart stops momentarily and her soul travels 250 years back in time, to 1745, to the last moments of her former incarnation, Jayna Conroy’s, life. The influx of Samantha’s energy allows Jayna to survive and continue her escape from captivity with the infamous ‘pirate’ Shoale. Jayna finds her way to the MacAndrews clan in the Highlands and into the heart of Mackenzie MacAndrews, but Mac has a full-time struggle to keep his clan out of civil conflict as bonnie Prince Charlie tries to reclaim the throne of Scotland. The darkly compelling Shoale continues his search for Jayna, and there is another, unseen threat—-medical technology of the future, where Samantha has been languishing in a coma since the surgery. Love, a home and happiness are finally within Jayna’s reach, but will she find a way to keep them against all odds?
