Former train conductor Ryan Callahan is cursed.  Rather, he was cursed way back in 1905 on the same night he was meant to die in a train accident.  Ever since, he's been forced to wander through time looking for a woman known as The Curse Breaker, the one person in the universe capable of setting him free.  Guided by an entity known as The Wise Woman, every twenty years Ryan returns to the site of the accident in hopes of meeting this mysterious Curse Breaker - assuming she really exists. Having moved back to her hometown, businesswoman Lucy McLaughlin has been saddled by her late father with a failing tourist railroad.  Desperate to save her father's legacy, Lucy has been struggling to find a way to save the Twisted Creek Railroad from demolition.  Unfortunately, all she has are a few dedicated crew members, her trusted confidante, Gus, and a legend surrounding the mysterious disappearance of a man who once worked the railroad - Ryan Callahan. When Ryan magically appears in Lucy's life, she's not above using him - the real him - to help save her railroad and her father's legacy.  She also just might be the magical Curse Breaker that Ryan's been seeking.  Except she knows nothing about curses or how to break them.  Though she does believe in Ryan and the instant chemistry that flares between them - even though he's a man that was born over a hundred years ago!  Can Ryan help Lucy save her business?  More importantly, can Lucy figure out how to break the curse, and possibly keep Ryan in this time and place with her - forever? Find out in A Curse in Time, the fourth novel in the Modern Magic series!  This 102, 900-word novel is written in the modern romance style for a slightly hotter read.  It may not be appropriate for younger audiences.
