Two lovers transcend space and time, life, and death in this wildly inventive novella from a Romantic Times Lifetime Achievement Award–winning author.

Emily Larchmont is on a voyage back from England to her home in the States. The young widow hopes to start anew. She'll be helped along the way by the dashing Jonathan Webb, who is all too eager for Emily to cast off her mourning dress and learn to love life once more. But after a storm sinks the ship, Emily fears she has lost Jonathan forever.

Back home, adjusting to her new life, Emily attends a party where Jonathan shows up, hale and hearty. But is it really him? Or is it someone from beyond the stars? Either way, a passion has been ignited between the two that will leave them both changed forever.
