Publisher's summary

One woman bred to save the world....

Dr. Elaine “Lainey” Randolph was born with one sole purpose: To prevent the past. With her brilliant mind and unwavering spirit, she works tirelessly to solve the equations that will finally unlock the mystery of time travel. Then, she will leave the post-apocalyptic future her grandfather created and travel back in time to prevent his calamitous actions.

When handsome military captain Hunter Rhodes appears at Lainey’s remote scientific hub, he offers her protection. But there are strings attached to the mysterious soldier’s proffer, and Lainey finds herself wary of the man who stokes unwelcome longing and desire in her unemotional heart. For Lainey is a scientist, obdurate and dispassionate toward the notion of romantic love.

As Lainey’s band of ragtag scientists and loyal soldiers endeavor to escape the dystopian future, the evil New Establishment threatens to destroy them all. In their unpredictable timeline, the nefarious regime has become all-powerful and will stop at nothing to ensure complete world domination....

This novel is brought to you by a self-proclaimed science dork and lover of romance, fantasy, and sci-fi. The listener can expect time travel shenanigans, smokin' hot chemistry between main characters in their late 30s and 40s and twists along the way. Enjoy the journey!

Time Travel

This is my first book by Rebecca Hefner, and I couldn’t wait to finish the series. Excellent story line, kept my attention. The story actually caused a few late nights, where I couldn’t get to sleep, as I wanted more of the story. The characters were well developed, I could see each unique person. I loved I could not predict the story, full of twists, turns, and some surprises. Time travel, government henchmen, romance, failed experiments…. Just a great story.

I felt the narration could have been better. It was smoothly spoken and well-modulated, however there was little distinction between the voices, especially male voices. I was disappointed here.

This is set in the future, after a nuclear war which devastated the world. Lainey is a genius, and was raised to believe she had to save the world. She needed to build a time machine and prevent the damage her grandfather caused. With time travel there are so many questions and possibilities. The author did a good job answering these questions, and giving plausible explanations.
