Now if she could just figure out a way to stop feeling the things she is feeling for Dominic....and convince him that he must let her go despite the fact that he's as determined to keep her with him in the 14th century as she is to go back to her own time.When fate deals a hand that may separate them forever, Sarah soon finds she can no longer deny the searing white hot love that spans across time itself. The kind that only comes in that special time and place When Lightning Strikes.
