Synopsis "A Promise for All Time (in English)"
"You're like the treasure box filled with all the laughter I've lost."When social outcast Mercy Blagden accidentally cuts herself on an ancient ruby dagger, her blood mixes with the blood of a cursed seventeenth century English lord and casts her into his time, his castle, and his father's dungeon. It's one thing that the young man who takes pity on her and sets her free in his care has the kindest heart of any guy she's ever known, sees beyond her scarred face, and claims her blood can heal him. It's another when she begins to fall in love with him and learns she's been sent there to kill him.Josiah Ashmore, seventh son of the duke of Dorset, turns every head and sets almost every heart to fluttering when he enters a room and sweeps his guileless, jaunty smile over all, rich and poor. He's well loved by everyone who knows him, most especially by his father and six older brothers. But his smiles, even his joy, are well-practiced to convince others that he isn't the devil they fear from some age-old prophecy. They love him but they keep their children from becoming his friends and their daughters from becoming his wife. For all he has, he lives a lonely life. But when he meets the mysterious woman who claims to be from another time-before he speaks to her or touches her-he knows he's been waiting for her all his life. The more time he spends with her, the more hope fills his heart for a brighter future, and the more genuine his happiness becomes until he's convinced that now that he can breathe, he will suffocate without her.Mercy doesn't care about some stupid prophecy.

Her life finally has a purpose.
