The River of Time series follows Gabriella “Gabi” Betarrini and her sister Lia, modern American teenagers who are transported to 14th-century Italy while visiting Etruscan tombs. Waterfall (2011) drops Gabi into the middle of a war between rival city-states, where she meets Marcello Forelli. Cascade and Torrent (both 2011) escalate the conflict and the romance.

Bourne & Tributary (2012) is a pair of novellas told from alternate perspectives, and Deluge (2014) brings the original storyline to a close. The series mixes YA romance with real Italian history, and Gabi’s modern perspective against the medieval setting gives the books their energy. The series has a devoted readership and spawned a companion duology, River of Time: California.
