A chance meeting at Grand Central Station propels Charlotte Fitzgerald into the arms of Hunter Spencer, a man who's loved her for centuries. When Charlotte boards subway car 4488, the doors seal shut like a heartbeat-and open again onto a sun-soaked platform in 1830, Abbottshire, England. The man who makes her knees weak is whispering her name like a prayer he's rehearsed across centuries. Some maddening alchemy draws her to him-something far deeper than chemistry, something that tastes like fate and smells like forever. All the lonely nights of her modern life dissolve the instant his hand closes around hers. Her prince has finally come. Not on a white stallion, but aboard a subway car barreling backward into history.The star-crossed lovers are lost and rescued by monks from Hailes Abbey.

Somewhere in the darkness, Jack the Ripper is hunting. A hansom cab thunders after her through the gas-lit streets, hooves striking sparks from the cobblestones. Will Charlotte Fitzgerald become the Ripper's next mutilated masterpiece?Welcome to the obsession. Together Forever-a tale of timeless love.
