This is the second book in the James sister trilogy, but the third has never been published. This is my favorite and will stand alone. Bethany is so afraid when she goes back in time...it is joy to see that without her sisters she can grow into the wonderful woman she is meant to be.

For Bethany James, freedom comes in the form of the River of Time, sweeping her away from her old life, to 1895. But on awakening in Juneau, Alaska, Bethany discovers a whole new batch of problems. For one thing, she has been separated from her sisters -- the only ones with whom she shares perfect harmony. And the widowed mine-owner who finds her -- Matthew Gray -- is hardly someone with whom she expects to connect.

Yet struggling to survive, drawing on every skill she possesses, the violet-eyed beauty finds herself growing into a stronger person. She is learning to trust, learning to love. And in helping Matt do the same, Bethany realizes the laments of the past are only too soon made the sweet strains of happiness.
