Read Endless Time Storyline:

Can a great love survive to transcend time?It is 1806, and in her home, Ashbourne Manor, a woman opens a letter warning her of the terrible fate awaiting her and her unborn child. By nightfall both are dead in the rubble of a burnt out tower.In present day London, talented artist Karen Courtney is overwhelmed by a feeling of familiarity with the man portrayed in a Georgian miniature. Driven to know more, her search leads her to Ashbourne Manor, to the tower, where an accident thrusts her spirit back in time and into the body of another woman – the beautiful and scandalous Regency socialite, Lady Caroline.Appalled by the transition and grieving for her child left behind, Karen finds she must adapt to a past era, although constantly seeking a way back to her own time. Her ‘husband’s’ angry disillusionment with the woman he believes to be Caroline is fed by Karen’s incredible story. And someone is trying to kill her.Review"Endless Time will capture your involvement from its beginning to its inevitable conclusion" - Courier, Ballarat. From the AuthorThis book is a journey that affected me deeply as it unfolded. The belief in the continuation of the spirit after death is held by many people in many different societies, and this can have a profound effect upon the way they live and relate to others. What greater comfort can there be than to know, unquestioningly, that the people we love - especially that one particular person - will never be lost to us?From that belief platform it's easy enough to conceive of a spirit moving across time and coming to understand its ongoing connections in the past. Of course, not all those connections are pleasant. Some would be much better left behind. But that's life. (Or lives?)Karen Courtney's journey is one of discovery, of her real self, and of understanding the purpose behind her relationships. Has she chosen them intentionally? Does she carry within her a deeper knowledge of their meaning? Is fate, after all, a matter of deliberate choice? And is love the overarching need that can transcend even the greatest fear?Tom Levy is drawn into a similar voyage of discovery, despite his vigorous efforts to escape. The increasingly complicated therapy sessions with one patient are turning his world upside down.Society in the London of 1810 is in denial. That monster Bonaparte will never trouble them. The Channel is too great a barrier. It's just a pity that travel upon the Continent is now out of the question. Only in the higher echelons of diplomacy is there real understanding of the threat to this island nation of being starved into submission. European and Scandinavian ports are closed; the Channel is a dangerous gauntlet to run. Local crops have failed and the hungry common man is viewing the excesses of a stupid Prince Regent and pondering the success of recent revolutions in France and the American colonies. The Tsar of Russia is the last hope of an ally, and he is wavering.Against this background a woman appears - someone whose knowledge of the future is denied and thrust aside. Frustration is added to Karen's distress, and the fear of a secret enemy. And love has entered the picture - a love she does not want, but which will come to mean more than life itself.While Endless Time is a paranormal story, a time-travel, it is historically accurate and sheds light upon a small, but interesting facet of England's role in Napoleon's downfall. And it explores the possibility of karma and the wheel of eternal life in the context of a great and transcending love.
