Steal
Me Away
By AngeliQue
Cherene Shatzel
Disillusioned
by her distant, abusive marriage, Marina wishes for passion. On
her birthday she meets a man who could fulfill her every desire,
if she would only tempt fate.
Captain
Joseph Marlett realizes the woman in a friend's picture holds the
key to his heart. He travels back to Marina's time and wheedles
her agreement to accompany him to the future.
Marina's morals,
combined with her difficult adjustment to futuristic laws, blind
her to Joseph's love. After his nemesis kidnaps her, she believes
the worst of Captain Marlett.
Joseph
regains her physical custody, but despite valiant efforts, he can't
claim her heart. He loves her so deeply; he decides to send her
back to her own time, where she believes her happiness lies.
Will
Marina realize all she lost before it's too late? Will Joseph, once
and for all, prove his love eternal?
"Steal
Me Away" is a fantastic escape. Ms. Shatzel's intriguing plot,
attention to detail and vivid descriptions pull readers into the
twenty-fourth century. Her characters are well rounded and magnetic.
You won't want to set it aside even after you read the ending.
