Are you ready to fall back in time?
Twins in Time
A hidden murder. A forced engagement. And a doppelgänger. She can’t run—not anymore.
Ellie should’ve died in the accident, and she knows it. Yet she wakes downstream with a head wound.
Instead of her small hometown, she finds herself trapped in land run era Oklahoma—complete with bonnets, corsets, floor-length dresses, and covered wagons.
Realizing this isn’t some cruel joke, she’s scooped up by a man who’s convinced she’s his missing sister. Despite her plans to get back to her real time, Ellie takes the place of this missing doppelgänger to survive.
But her newfound family has other plans.
To settle a land dispute, there’s to be a wedding with the malicious neighbor.
And she’s the bride.
Ellie is determined to escape before they make her say, “I do.” But when she meets Sam—the only man who truly believes she’s from the future—she questions if running is the only option.
A fast-paced time travel novel set in 1894, Twins in Time is brimming with rousing stakes, endearing romance, family tragedy, and stirring imagery of the Old West.
Author Q+A
Q. How did you get so interested in the late 1800s?
I'm not completely sure. In school, I'd research the 1800s instead of studying. It got me into plenty of trouble, but hey, it came in handy. I think in some ways, it was a way to escape reality. Going back in time provides an escape that doesn't feel attainable just by writing current fiction. It's probably why I've dabbled with fantasy as well. Essentially, the 1800s feels like a different world.
Q. What were some of the obstacles you had to overcome in writing this story?
Researching little details in 2020 was next to impossible. I spent weeks researching the Cherokee Outlet and if the Cherokees actually lived there in 1894. This might sound like an easy question to answer, but trust me, it was not. No one would answer their phones. Google would dodge the question. Museums were closed. I almost gave up on the subplot entirely.
3. What were some of the funny or intriguing things you found in your research for this era?
Sod houses were frequently constructed first, then they were transformed into sheds or barns after the actual house was completed. All I can imagine is how hard it would be to keep a sod house clean.
