The Table

Can a simple oak tree have a higher purpose? A unique destiny ordained by its Creator? Many would say no, but Shania Browning Silva and Abraham Benjamin Alcott would disagree, for The Table was fashioned from just such a tree. Shania?s only child is dead, and her husband blames her for the unforeseen tragedy. Divorce papers in hand, she wars against the temptation to end her life, her pain. Conquering the dark moment, she sits at a family heirloom?a century-old table?and is transported back to the year 1939 . . . back to a part of her family she?d never known. Abe, an antique dealer, can?t shake the cryptic confession that slips from his grandfather?s dying lips. Troubled, he sits in his favorite century-old chair and falls asleep. When he wakes, he, too, finds himself a prisoner of 1939. Together, they find love in a time where they don?t belong. However, the fragile thread binding their hearts stands threatened when they discover the earthshattering reason they were taken to the past?the hideous tie that binds their families of old together.
