Summary
What if you discover that the man of your dreams lived 400 years ago?
Fourteen-year-old Gina Martin is a straight-A student and a bit of an introvert with no real interest in boys or a social life outside of a few close friends…until the 10th anniversary of the mysterious death of her father, when she is drawn to the eerie old park where he used to take her, and its scary, crumbling old tower.
Inside, she accidentally discovers a portal that delivers her to the 1700s, where she eventually meets Philip, a young Noble who has been tasked with settling Spain’s “La Florida” territory. Fascinated by the world she has found, Gina begins to skip school and visit La Florida more and more--much to the ire of Prince Philip’s mysterious counselor, Cero.
Falling for her prince, Gina ignores unfriendly natives, her mother, and the obvious discrepancies of a new friend Gina finds in the old world--an elusive and ethereal woman named Summer. But when Gina sees that Florida’s history in her present-day school textbook changes to reflect her actions the old world, she knows she can rewrite the fate of her prince and set the modern world on a different path.
As a warring tribe attacks the Spanish settlement, Gina makes a risky escape only to discover that the water tower housing the portal is slated for demolition. Now young Gina must choose between her life in the modern world or her new life in the past, but the mysterious Cero’s hidden books contain secrets that could change everything.
