A Matter of Time by Terri Brisbin

A man conceived in the past and living in the present. . . A woman in need calling him back. . . Where and when does his destiny lie?

Current Day. . . . Douglas MacKendimen grew up listening to his parents’ fantastical tales of their journey to the past and has never believed a word of it. Caught up in the stressful world of practicing medicine, the strange dreams during restless nights should not surprise him—but the woman calling to him does. The dreams intensify as he returns to Scotland for a family gathering. Dunnedin, Scotland, 1370 Caitlin, daughter of the MacKendimen Clan healer, has even greater abilities than her mother and can heal with only her touch. Her power is growing as she tends to her kith and kin, but is drawn to a man in her dreams. When he appears and saves her life, she believes they are meant to be together. The truth – that he is from the future and must return destroys all her hopes. She cannot abandon her clan to be with him and he must leave. Secrets of the past and future threaten to destroy them as Douglas and Caitlin’s love grows. When the fates are against them, it’s just a matter of time before they will be forced to choose whether to follow their hearts’ desires or to remain apart forever.
