"Time Travel to Alaska"

At the Drexel cemetery in the Wyoming mountains, the three sisters sing Christian songs at the burial of local witch Yolanda D'Arcy. No one else including the caretaker Digger Phelps (not the former Irish coach) attend the ceremony. Soon a fog comes out of nowhere and engulfs the female trio.

Alicia, a botanist, quickly realizes that she is no longer in Wyoming but seemingly in the Alaskan wilderness. Her two siblings are not with her, but she is not alone. She is near the home of logging mogul Caleb Marker who is shocked that a governess has arrived so soon. Stunned to realize that she also traveled back in time to 1895, Alicia accepts the job offer especially after meeting Caleb's daughter. As the trio fall in love and have the possibility of forging a family together, he cannot let go of a past betrayal while she worries about her sisters and whether she will return to her proper place in time.

ALICIA'S SONG is an entertaining time travel romance that readers will fully enjoy even as they breathlessly await the upcoming stories starring the two siblings. Though a botanist and from a ranch, Alicia's acceptance seems to simple and easy, yet the audience will still adore the chronically impaired heroine. Caleb also leaves quite a mark on the readers, as does his daughter. Susan Plunkett opens her time travel romance with a fun to read scene that fans will find delightful.
