When a tempest throws you into the arms of love, do you surrender or find your way back to the only world you've ever known? In 1893, a massive hurricane ravishes the small Louisiana community of Cheniere Caminada and hurls Madeleine deVille one hundred years through time. Coast Guardsman Hank LaFont rescues Madeleine from a sand bar and takes her home to Grand Isle. Despite the two becoming emotionally involved, Hank stubbornly refuses to believe in time travel and engages others to research Madeleine's past to disprove her bizarre story while she grieves for her family and seeks a way home. As another storm approaches the island, she wrestles with the most difficult decision of her life-return to her century or remain with the man she loves?"
