"After the disappearance of her father and sister, Ellen Creighton wants nothing to do with the holy water they were seeking, even if it would cure her deadly genetic disease-until a friend helps her recognize its true power in this suspenseful, time-crossing romantic adventure"--

In the last stages of a genetic disease, Ellen Creighton has decided to live out her remaining days at the estate of her longtime friend Harrison Burlington. As a wheelchair-bound paraplegic, Harrison has never allowed himself to get serious in a relationship. When he locates two flasks of the holy water that is believed to heal any disease, Ellen refuses to drink because she believes the holy water killed her sister and father. Harrison ingests the contents first, and Ellen can no longer deny the power of the substance in the bottles. But dangerous criminals are also seeking the holy water, and will go to any lengths to get the powerful drug. -- adapted from back cover
