The Necklace IV: Brighton, December 1999
Linda S. Rice

After Susan’s friends betray her on the day she would have married James and force her to return to the present, she falls into a deep depression that she can't shake herself out of. Having James’s engagement ring on her necklace makes it even worse. Her level-headed daughter Michelle decides to get to the bottom of Susan’s melancholy, and when she finds out the truth about her mother’s trips to the past, she determines to go with her on one final time-travel journey to end the link between James and Susan once and for all.
Mother and daughter are transported back to December 1999, where James is scheduled to make his first public appearance since his wife passed away two years ago. Michelle’s well-meaning plans go awry, however, when she encounters James’s son -- an up-and-coming concert pianist and spitting image of his gorgeous father -- and gazes into his captivating eyes.
With her marriage falling apart back in her present, Susan wonders if maybe this time she could stay in the past and change history. But that would mean finding a way to make James love her again, a problem further complicated by a gold-digging ex-courtesan named Hilary who also wants James for herself.
Is the love between James and Susan strong enough to thwart Hilary’s plans or will Susan be forced to go home and live out the rest of her life in despair?
This book contains erotica (that may be offensive to some readers but titillating to most lovers of romance).
