Parallel Lives
An Opening in Time trilogy (Book One)
When Kaitlin Hewlett-Grace crash lands her little plane in a field, she has no idea what’s in store. She wakes to find herself in a strange land among strange people. A worm hole in time has sent her to a place similar, but most certainly different, from her own. The women-only community lives a simple life and Kaitlin, used to all the finer things in the twenty-first century, has a steep learning curve ahead of her.
Sexy and serious Tannus, Chief of the community, knows two things: her time is limited, and Kaitlin is meant for her. But Kaitlin isn’t about to love someone because of a prophecy in a world she doesn’t belong to, and Tannus must prove herself worthy of Kaitlin’s love. Berran, Tannus’ twin sister and her opposite in pretty much every way, would do just about anything for Kaitlin’s love…except betray her sister’s trust.
All three of them must come to terms with what Kaitlin’s presence among them brings to light. And when there are life and death choices to be made, they must be made with the knowledge that there is far more at stake than heartache.
Crossing Over
An Opening in Time trilogy (Book Two)
When the day comes, Kaitlin is excited about taking Tannus and Carray back to Cheshire to show them all the wonders of the world she comes from.

Her mum and dad hate each other. Her brother has a crush on Carray. And then there’s the persistent ex-policewoman who can’t let go of the things she’s seen happen in the field…
Learning to live in this new world is harder than Tannus imagined it would be. Although she wants to be as excited as Kaitlin is, she can’t help but be confounded by all the things she learns: poverty, war, and inequality abound in this strange world. And as they prepare for the birth of their child, Tannus can only hope she’ll be around to see her grow up.
Meanwhile, back in Caysher, Berran is struggling to become the chief her community needs. Without her sister at her side, and missing Kaitlin’s exuberant presence, she’s not sure who she is anymore. When disaster strikes and illness hits the community, she’s forced to take drastic measures.
Will love get them through? Or will crossing over cost more than they’d ever imagined?

Kaitlin doesn’t know where she belongs anymore. It was right to bring everyone back, even if Marti was an unplanned addition. But without Tannus she’s not sure of her place among this community of women she’d thought of as family. As she raises the twins and figures out who she wants to be now, she knows that her desire for Berran hasn’t gone away. Resisting it makes things harder, but surely they could never bridge the gap Tannus’ loss has created between them. In the end, it will be destiny that decides if their hearts will meet.
