When Emma Quinn was hurled from the year 2019 into 1882 Colorado, she never expected to find her place-let alone belong. Now, in the summer of 1883, she’s determined to build a life in Manitou, where progress and old wounds clash beneath the shadow of Pikes Peak.
As the town readies itself for the arrival of the Knights Templar, passing through on their way to the conclave in San Francisco, ambition and loyalty test Emma’s resolve. Her growing affection for Levi Warwick, the steadfast town marshal, deepens even as whispers of scandal threaten her friend Claire La Salle. When a visiting Templar is found murdered, suspicion turns inward, forcing Emma to choose between friendship, truth, and the fragile future she’s built in the past.
Blending romance, mystery, and meticulously rendered history, Today Is Not Forever continues Emma Quinn’s extraordinary journey through time-where love and justice rarely follow the same rules and yesterday’s choices echo across centuries.
