Moving back home to Gemstone Bay Inn was the only option for Ruby Colton.
Her dreams and ambitions had failed in Wellington, but she had to make things work for the sake of her child. Gemstone Bay offered a chance to write a new chapter for herself, but then she ran into Jason Ryan, the man she had run away from thirteen years ago.
Being involved again with Jason was the last thing she wanted, but thanks to her meddling siblings and her parents, Ruby finds herself on a project with Jason. Sparks, long dead, reignite and Ruby can’t help but wonder whether she is the only one who feels this way.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 754
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Poor narration.
Virtual voice mispronounced so many words, names and abbreviations that it was distracting, hard to follow. "ICU" was pronounced as "ice", "ER" as "err". "Gem" as either "gym" or "gem". Given names were not always pronounced the same way. Tenses of verbs were not consistant, even within a sentence or paragraph. Foreign words such as "croissant" were unrecognizable. At one point I was forced to go to Amazon and read portions of the print version to figure out what was going on. The story itself didn't come to a conclusion, the book is continued in another volume. I was frustrated enough that I will not bother reading the sequel.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
