Hannah Barstow becomes aware of a ghostly presence that coincides with recurring dreams that wake her from sleep. After her husband and son are killed in an accident, she is catapulted into shock and grief and finds herself drawn into a relationship with the ghost as he begins to reveal himself to her. He proves to be a spirit who last reincarnated in 1776 and has come to the 21st century from a parallel universe to protect her, help her find her inner strength to rebuild her life and redefine herself. The more he reveals himself to her, she learns why he is so familiar to her and why she is so significant to him. It is intensely romantic and filled with a measure of suspense, and a slight touch of comedy as you cross the bridge between two realities.
