"A great Time Travel debut"

I started this out enjoying it, but expecting to be able to put it down a few times while I cleaned the house. Bad choice.  This book slowly but increasingly gets better and more intense the further you read it. 

The hero and heroine simultaneously make a wish for love on New Years Day that somehow enables the heroine to go to him in the past, after she is hit on the head while visiting his ancestral home. 

The hero is a tortured man, unable to connect with his small daughter.  The heroine has had her troubles too, but has conquered her ghosts.  She had half fallen in love with an old picture of the hero, but finds he's not the perfect man she expected in the flesh. Instead she becomes determined to make him love his daughter, and falls in love with him for real.  But will she be able to stay in the past??  You'll have to read to find out.

At the stroke of midnight on December 31, 1898, Sheriff Corby Hillhouse makes this heartfelt wish: "Please send me a woman my love won't kill..."

Although Corby doesn't realize it, his wish is granted in the form of Laura Bennett, the 20th century woman who falls back in time. Like Corby, Laura harbors many regrets, but when she's hired as nanny to Corby's motherless daughter she finds the happiness she'd been searching for.

However, before Laura can enjoy her new life she has to get past Corby's suspicious nature, his spiteful ex-lover, and the man who wants both Corby and his daughter dead.
