Dundee, Scotland, 1842
Nae man can tether time or tide…
–Robert Burns
Midwife Deborah Hasley finds happiness in delivering other women’s babies, swooning over the poetry of Robbie Burns, and stealing an occasional kiss or two from a handsome sailor. But when her beloved sister Rebecca makes an impossible request, Deborah must decide if she dares follow her heart to unexpected places and find room for unexpected love. Based on a true story, Time or Tide follows passionate Deborah from Ireland to Scotland, where loyalty and love collide.
