Time Was Cal Hornblower is flying his ship when he has an accident. He wakes up in a remote Oregon cabin, rescued by Libby Stone. But something is drastically wrong. His environment is different, out of place. Synthetic items have been replaced by genuine wood and fabric. Libby uses kitchen appliances that are ancient. When he finds a new book and reads the copyright date, he cannot believe it. Somehow he has come back 200 years in time, to the late twentieth century. And Libby has a powerful attraction for him. Times Change When Cal's brother, J.T. realizes what has happened, he purposefully time travels from the twenty-third century to rescue his brother. He does not realize that Cal may not want to be rescued. Neither Cal nor Libby are at the cabin when J.T. arrives. Instead he meets Libby's sister, Sunny. Despite Sunny's attractiveness, J.T. will not allow himself to be swayed from his rescue mission. He has to find his brother and return to their time.
