Bentley Square
A Time After Time Romantic Adventure
by Carol Ann Kauffman
Strangers meet on the train. She, a beautiful, wealthy businesswoman. He, a down on his luck office manager. They have nothing in common. And yet, they are drawn to each other with an undeniable hypnotic magnetism. This is the story of Rebecca Robbins, daughter of one of the wealthiest men in the country and Mark Ramsay, a man shrouded in dark mystery and hiding in the shadows from death squads amid international intrigue.

Dear Gentle Readers,
Writers aren't supposed to list their own books as their favorites. But this one, Bentley Square, holds a special place in my heart. Just as I say Blue Lake, the first book in the Time After Time series, is the book that changed my life for so many reasons, this book, Bentley Square, was the one that reaffirmed to me that I was on the right track in what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. And the hero of the book, Mark, is one of my all-time favorite guys.
I wrote in high school and a little in college. I found it immensely enjoyable. But then life, family, career, and household management assumed all my time and energy.
As most of you know, I am a retired teacher. For thirty-five years, my job as first grade teacher, or in some cases second or third (I was the new guy, so I went with the enrollment numbers.) was the most important thing in my life. If a student wasn't 'getting it', I felt it was my personal responsibility to try another way, another method, another mode of learning until it clicked for that particular student. In retrospect, it was like I put my head down and got to work and didn't look up for thirty-five years.
I retired because of family responsibilities. And, for a while, I was so busy and emotionally drained, my only goal was holding everything together and making through another day.
When I finally did have time, strength, and energy, I began writing again. That was thirty books ago. I believe everybody has a book in them. Now, whether somebody else will want to read it is a whole different matter!
