TIMESWEPT BRIDE Timeless Desire The death of an unfaithful wife has left Jake Blarney with twin daughters to raise and a farm to run on his own. Desperate and angry, he challenges Destiny to bring him a new helpmate--and is rewarded with a breathtaking gift from across the seas of time. Timeswept Bride When Priscilla Pemberton found a century-old message in a bottle on Galveston beach, she never dreamed a magical wave would carry her back to the author of the heartfelt missive. Now she is caught up in an inescapable past--and determined not to end up the unpampered wife of a struggling dairy farmer. But Jake's passion will not be denied. For the proud, handsome Irishman knows the resisting lady is the answer to his prayers--and that neither time nor tide can diminish a remarkable love that Fate itself has decreed.
