Soulmates across time. Two hearts, stronger together.

In present day, Maxton is good at finding trouble and bad at everything else.

In 1892, Trent Harrington, sheriff of Trinidad, Colorado, lives a respectable but lonely life, devoid of any closeness.

Trying to escape a past that keeps chasing him, Maxton drives south to avoid getting arrested. When his car spins off the road, he is swept up in a desert whirlwind and finds himself in the year 1892. Lost and alone, unused to the laws of the wild west, Maxton gets arrested anyway.

Trent is tasked with escorting Maxton to Trinidad. The request isn’t unusual, but the miscreant is. Maxton draws Trent’s heart out of its shell with his flashing green eyes and lush head of hair. It isn’t right. It isn’t natural. It’s illegal. Yet Trent cannot resist the impetuous young man.

As the two men travel through the vast, empty desert to their destination, will they find in each other the love and companionship they never thought they’d have?

A male/male time travel romance, complete with the scent of desert roses, brilliantly colored sunsets, starlit nights, bitter campfire coffee, growing honesty and trust, and true love across time.





WARNING : SPOILER ALERT!!



Maxton had always needed someone to belong to and with. Someone to love. Someone all his own. Someone like Trent...

This is still the continuity from the previous story, this time is the story about Maxton, Another Laurie's best friend, and I’ve been waiting for this story since I ended Zach and Layton’s book!

After Zach went missing mysteriously following what had happened to Laurie, Max then receiving another letter from Laurie that sent from the past which told that Zach now lived with him at Trinidad.

In the present time Maxton's life always get into troubles. Finding his life is in danger, he then decided to runaway. But on his way he’d been swept by the whirlwind and thrown into the past.
Confused and disoriented, Maxton then got into trouble and  jailed.
Then come Trent, a sheriff from Trinidad who brought the message from Laurie and had been assigned to take him to the place where Laurie lived.
Their journey back to where Laurie lived was not easy, both Max and Trent must face lots of obstacles. With the baggage and insecurity they both carried from their past and with the mysterious clouds and whirlwind that always ‘chased’ Maxton and want to throw him back to the future had made this book become another interesting and consuming book from Jackie North.

The two MCs come with their unique characters and the way the author describe Maxton's anxiety and afraid and Trent's dilemmas, and their slow changing feelings and deep connection are enough to make you glued to the story until the last page.

This series become more and more addicted since I start the first book. Now with all these three best buddies finally reunited again in the past I assume the story about this trio finally come to its end. BUT….will this series also come to its end? Well, don’t think so. Because I’m sure the author still has more unique time travel story on her mind!

Last but not least, if you a time travel lovers like me, I’ll recommended not only this book, but this whole series to you! Trust me you’ll love all the story in this series!




"Pain holds me still, holds me here, in this year. It keeps me grounded, and keeps me from the whirlwind," said Maxton. "Just like the smell of roses—"

"Roses?" asked Trent. "Yeah," said Maxton. "I smelled roses, and knew I'd made it back to the right time, to you—"


"I won't let it take you," said Trent. "Focus on where we are, and where we are going. Listen to the sound of the wind on the river, the faraway wails of coyotes singing to the moon. Be with me now, be with me."




High Recommended!
