Sunnyside, Texas, present day. Jennifer Cloud hates that she’s unemployed and brokenhearted. Again. Still struggling to figure out how to adult, things get worse when an inherited amulet hurls her back to 1568 Scotland. And though she’s enchanted by kilted hunk Caiyan, she stumbles onto a plot to steal devices that can alter the past.
Lost in a world that makes less sense than her modern one, Jennifer dutifully embraces her destiny to defend history. But when a Mexican revolutionary swipes her ticket home, her mission and future may have come to a dead end.
Can Jennifer recover her strange necklace without rewriting prior events and maybe even hook up with the savory Scot?
The Shoes Come First is the first book in the fun and frantic Jennifer Cloud time travel romance series. If you like magical portals, sassy heroines, and dashing defenders, you’ll love Janet Leigh’s lighthearted tale.
The not-so-capable, not-so-confident, but occasionally lucky heroine, Jennifer Cloud, is back in this action-packed novel that promises pirates, high seas adventures, and the perfect twist of time travel romance.
Jennifer Cloud, a transporter for the World Traveler Federation, is determined to lead a mission, but only male Defenders get that job. Her current defender, the hunky, He-man Marco Ferrari, has decided, against her better judgment, to stay in Nassau 1718, an island run by unscrupulous pirates, shady smugglers, and convenient courtesans.
When Marco doesn’t return to the present, Jennifer’s boss gives her the green light to save him, but her current beau, the impossibly handsome Scotsman Caiyan McGregor, isn’t happy about her solo mission–or that she’s helping the He-Man. If she accepts the mission, it could delay the much-anticipated marriage proposal from her sexy and secretive Scottish lover.
However, the tides turn after Jennifer embarks on the mission and finds herself aboard a ship captained by the infamous pirate Charles Vane. While looking for a lost relic, roadblocking a ruthless brigand, rescuing her defender, and saving a past historical figure from losing his life, she finds herself engaged to not one but two men.
At least she brought her lucky red stilettos.
With the help of her fellow transporter, Ace, and a bit of luck, Jennifer makes waves on the seven seas by ensuring the unruly pirate captains do as history has recorded. But will she get her sea legs in time to prevent the bloodthirsty brigands from plundering all her hard work?
Stilettos & Secrets on the 7 Seas braids adventure and romance into an action-packed tale through time. Join Jennifer Cloud on this heart-pounding and humorous maritime journey.
