She fell through time with nothing but a rose ... and landed in the arms of a man who felt like home.

Brooklyn James doesn't believe in fate-only in contracts, deadlines, and her ever-growing slush pile. But when a violent thunderstorm traps her inside a quirky antique shop in a forgotten Wyoming ghost town, a single violet rose and a crack of lightning catapult her into the nineteenth century... and straight into the path of Eli Whitaker, a rugged stranger with a heart as steady as his aim.

As the past becomes stunningly real, Brooklyn finds herself torn between two worlds-one filled with spreadsheets and stress, the other with slow dances beneath the stars and a love that defies time. But the rose that brought her here is fading, and a second storm looms. She must choose before it's too late: return to the life she left behind, or take a leap of faith into a love that was always meant to bloom.

The Rose That Waited is a heartwarming, feel-good time travel romance short story. If you love gallant heroes, tough-as-nails heroines, and happily ever afters with a splash of humor, then you'll adore Bonita Clifton's charming adventure.
