The First Lights of Eventide

From the TIMELESS ROMANCE Standalone Collection

When a modern-day historian uncovers a mysterious letter from the past, she unlocks more than just secrets—she opens a door to another time.

In 2016 Alabama, Dr. Neely Shaw lives for forgotten history and hidden places. But when she discovers a decaying farmhouse and a brittle old letter dated 1907 that references the future National Register of Historic Places, her curiosity turns into obsession. Her research leads her to the long-abandoned Mountain Lodge Hotel, once a grand Southern resort shrouded in mystery and rumored to be haunted by tragedy.

Drawn to the site, Neely and her architect friend Josh Carraway stumble upon a hidden portal—and are suddenly transported back to the hotel’s golden age. Now caught in a different century, Neely must navigate a vanished world, a chilling past, and unexpected romance as she uncovers the truth behind a century-old disappearance.
