It is a good story line, she goes overboard with too much thought about what might or might not happen. Nice time travel idea.
About this title: Inconsolable after her brother's death in Vietnam, Sarah Jennings seeks refuge in Louisiana's Belle Fontaine, a crumbling Civil War plantation house where she could lose herself in the swirling dreams of a dark-eyed lover who calls to her from across the years. Damien, too, lost a brother to war -- the War Between the States -- but in Sarah he finds a sweet ecstasy that makes life worth living again.
A good read.
