Susie Freyn was working her usual shift checking people into the ER when the most handsome man came in and collapsed, unable to breathe. Using magical powers she hardly understands and has never tested, Susie revives him only to discover that he is like her—one of a race of magical people called the Vallen. Michael Werloga knew he had COVID, but avoided going to the hospital for as long as he could. Only when breathing became too difficult did he reluctantly give in. But when he awakes to find the most beautiful woman speaking to him in his mind, he’s happy he took the risk. Neither Susie nor Michael are prepared when virus and fever makes Michael’s magic go haywire sending them four hundred years into the past where people are battling a different plague. The question is, will they both have enough confidence in Susie’s magic to get them home again?
