Thief of Fate

The final installment in a time-travel romance trilogy about an Irish rogue and thief from 1844 Ireland who, in order to gain eternal life for his troubled soul, is tasked (a century later) with devising a plan to bring two people together in love.

Life doesn’t always turn out according to plan…and in the case of Liam O’Connor, choices he made in 1844 Ireland continue to haunt him. When Liam fell in love with Cora McLeod over 100 years ago, their intense romance changed both of their destinies in tragic ways.

But time marches on…or does it?

In order for Liam to save his soul, he sent back to earth to alter the course of Cora’s current romantic destiny. In 1844, Cora was never supposed to fall in love with Liam. And 100 years later, she doesn’t remember her Ireland life or the brief, yet intense, romance she and Liam once shared. Back then--as now--she was/is destined to end up with Finley Walsh—her always intended soul mate.

Cora is a head-strong, independent police officer in Providence Falls, North Carolina—a far cry from the woman Liam fell in love with a century before. She works with Finley, who is also a cop. Finley loves Cora, but Cora is taken and falling hard (again) for Liam, whose covert job (in this century) is to finally bring Cora and Finn together. As Cora, Finn and Liam all work to together to solve a murder case, old romantic feelings stir between Liam and Cora. Will Liam repeat history and make the same mistakes that interfere with destiny? Or will he stick to his quest, do the right thing and fulfill what fate always designed for Cora and Finn?

Each book in this spellbinding, mystical epic by Jude Deveraux and Tara Sheets (Chance of a Lifetime, An Impossible Promise) delivers well-plotted mystery and suspense—and stunning cliff-hangers. In Thief of Fate, fans of romance, historical fiction and time-travel stories will be treated to an exciting, passionate conclusion to this inventive, imaginative series.
