Stuck in London for one of her mom’s work trips, Skye Humphries can’t help holding a grudge when she ends up roped into a summer tour group with Philip-who-crushed-her-heart. But when Skye and Philip find themselves barreling through time after unsuspectingly opening the veil between the past and present, they’re thrust into a world where Skye’s very life is in danger.
If Skye had known her choices were between summering with Philip or being sacrificed to the god of the skies, she might have changed her attitude. Now she must figure out what’s most important to her—getting even for the past or having a future.

Interesting plot--a mixture of syfy fantasy and Biblical historical fiction, with a touch of innocent teen romance. It was fast-paced, with well-developed and relatable characters. Definitely good for all ages, especially middle-school & high-school age groups. The underlying theme of forgiveness, trust, and God's unfailing love was clear and effortlessly woven into the storyline. I did not realize this was the second group in a series; even so, I did not feel lost or confused. Overall, this book was wholesome, fun, and God-centered. Jackie -PBG Booklover

Things change when a tour around ancient ceremonial sites takes a weird turn and the two are forced to rely on each other for safety and a return, somehow, to their own time. Both Skye and Philip get a fresh chance to know each other and understand their strengths and weaknesses through the lens of wealth and slavery in a pagan culture on the cusp of
