Escaping an abusive relationship Juno runs away to Flete, a sleepy town on the Devon coast. When she finds a sea glass bead her dreams become rich with the story of star-crossed lovers who lived and loved over fifteen hundred years before.

In AD 370 Flavia is in love with the son of a tribal chieftain but is facing a forced marriage to her father’s loathsome slave. Desperate, she casts a curse, demanding the goddess Juno gives protection. The incantation echoes down through time, reaching out to another woman in distress.

Will past and present collide to empower Flavia and Juno when they need it most or will the predatory men who pursue them prove too powerful?
