Air force pilot Aurora Durant was lucky to be alive. It hadn't been easy to bring her jet down in the bizarre wind storm, but the savvy captain had managed. Now she had to figure out where she'd landed--and when. Lucius Antonius, senior centurion of the Roman Empire, couldn't believe his incredible fortune. A beautiful woman had literally dropped out of the sky. But before Lucius could claim the willful, impertinent creature, he had to tame her. Soon Aurora discovered the true test of her spirit wasn't learning to live in a time two thousand years in the past, but resisting the powerful allure of an ancient warrior. Her agenda could only be returning to her own time, and falling for Lucius could make that mission impossible to accomplish.
