Publisher Description
*A LOVE STORY BETWEEN A MODERN-DAY DOCTOR AND HER PLAGUE DOCTOR*
Dr. Mary Davies is a present-day medical intern at a hospital in Australia during the height of a pandemic in 2021. In the midst of treating her oxygen-starved patients, she was suddenly whisked away by federal agents, transported via a helicopter to a secure site, where she was told that she was to be part of a seven-man team on a time travel mission to prevent the pandemic from happening. They were to travel to 2020 to a particular site in China.
However, things did not go as planned.
Transported to the wrong place and the wrong time, she had to fight her way to survive another deadly disease and local customs. With three men of historical importance vying for her affection - Sir Robert Boyle, John Locke, and Thomas Sydenham - could she finally choose among them and carve her own name in history?
London, England, 1664
I was hyperventilating.
I could not make out the face behind the horrible mask. But I recognized it for what it was.
The bird-like head, complete with two hollows for eyes and its oversized beak.
They were worn by plague doctors many centuries ago.
They must have made a mistake. We were supposed to only go three years back! Where were the others? Was I the only one stranded in this time and space continuum?
How would I go back? Would I change history by being here?
Could I ever return to my own timeline?
Get lost in the romance across space and time in Amelia Danver's first historical romance novel.

Pandemic parallel
Interesting story about time travel gone wrong. Not sure if I I really cared for the COVID pandemic story line though. As well, I found it hard to like Mary as many of her actions/interactions varied in intent and genuineness. It was unique however to have Mary cross paths with several historical figures of significance. I was a bit surprised that Mary was not at all concerned about interactions that could potentially change the future? While I like the idea for the story, I found some of the ideas that tried to make sense of time travel to be confusing and hard to follow at times. As there is some resolution of the main issue is achieved in the end, other details are left unknown. Perhaps this is a hint about the next book in the series?
