Once upon a time… as a fair maiden lay weeping upon a cold tombstone, her heartfelt desire was suddenly made real before her: tall, broad of shoulder, attired in gleaming silver and gold, her knight in shining armor had come to rescue his damsel in distress…

Abandoned by her lover and his spoiled teen-aged daughter, thoroughly modern Dougless Montgomery finds herself alone and brokenhearted in an old English churchyard near the tomb of Nicholas Stafford, an earl who died in 1564.

Almost immediately, an armor-clad swashbuckler materializes–Nicholas himself, reincarnated in the 20th century to clear his reputation, having been unjustly convicted of treason. Intrigued by his plight, Dougless agrees to help

Drawn to him by a bond so sudden and compelling that it defied reason, Dougless knew that Nicholas was nothing less than a miracle: a man who would not seek to change her, who found her perfect just as she was. But she could not know how strong were the chains that tied them to the past — or the grand adventure that lay before them.

They become lovers, and their adventures briefly lead Dougless back to the 1560s, allowing Deveraux to portray that period from a contemporary woman’s perspective, as well as 1988 through the eyes of a confounded Elizabethan nobleman.

FYI – Well-detailed historical highlights and a heartwarming conclusion make this book worthwhile; the writing is not her best.
