Mari’s return to the present was not exactly what she expected. As the goddess predicted, there are always consequences to going into the past. Now, with the help of her friend Ty, Mari must find a way to get her loved ones back. Unfortunately, it may require the assistance of an ex-boyfriend whom she never wished to see again. He just might be the key to learn how to time travel on her own, or he might have another motive. Mari is left to decide, can he be trusted to help?
EXCERPT
I leaned forward and pulled his head
down to meet mine. I kissed him again. I needed to. I needed to feel that he
was real. Each time he went away, and my memories changed, it felt like I lost
a part of him. In losing him, I was losing part of me. He was everything I ever
wanted. It was scary to feel that way about one person, but it was true. Even
Logan and our past couldn’t compare with the feelings floating around inside me
at just the touch of Seth’s lips to mine. He was everything I needed.
“And you?” he asked as he pulled back
a little.
“Me what?” I asked, looking up into
his eyes. The desire I saw there was surely mirrored in my own.
“How long has it been in your time?”
Seth asked as he eyed me over, looking for any change in me.
“Five weeks,” I replied, watching his
eyes roam over my body. When most men looked at you like that it was creepy,
but the way he looked made my stomach tumble.
“And Ty was with you there?” Seth
asked, finally bringing his eyes up to mine.
“Yes,” I answered, looking up at him.
Did he really want to just talk after all this time apart?
“But he didn’t come with you,” Seth
replied to my answer.
He balanced on the wall with only one
hand, allowing his free hand to reach up and touch my face. I closed my eyes
and tried to memorize his touch. No matter how I was with him now, it would
never last. I had a feeling we would always have to fight to be together.
“No,” I responded, feeling his body
press up against me. His lips met mine again, and I rested my hands on his bare
chest. There were a few perks to the Egyptian military clothing, or rather lack
of clothing.
“Why,” Seth began as he moved his
kisses to my ear. “Are.” He kissed down my neck, sending tingles to my toes.
“You.” He reached the indent where my neck and shoulder met. “Here?”
He finished asking his question, but
the kisses continued as he pushed the fabric of the multiple tunics I wore out
of the way to continue kissing down a line. He began moving back up my neck
slowly as he waited for a response, but I was having trouble even remembering
the question. It was hard to carry on a conversation when we couldn’t keep
ourselves apart.
