About Step Into Tomorrow:
Rhys St. Clair is the best of a select group of highly
trained time specialists. When events in the layers of time run amok, it’s his
job to step through the Matrix and fix the problem. A mistake in his
calculations sends him back to the year 1996 and nets him more than he ever
bargained for – Sophia Townsend.
Sophia Townsend needs a life makeover. When a confused
stranger shows up inside her home, with no idea of where he is, or even what
year it is, it doesn’t take Sophia long to figure out the man in her living
room is the most interesting guy she’s ever met, and the sexiest, too.
