A Christmas Keepsake

Browsing through London in the softly falling snow, Christina Campbel as delighted to find an antique Christmas "snow ball" with an old-fashioned ice-skating scene inside. And when she examined it more closely, Christie was surprised to discover that the artist's name was James Holborn, the author of an old, regency-era book she treasured. Christie knew she must have this magical ball at any price, especially when she noticed that one of the ice-skaters looked remarkably like her. But she had no idea just how special the ball really was for when she turned it to watch the snowflakes swirl, so too did her own world... TIME CHANGER James Holborn wondered who was this peculiar, but beautiful, woman who suddenly appeared before him in the park. She was certainly dressed in the oddest clothing, and her gibberish about the future and time travel seemed too preposterous to believe. As he escorted this most attractive lady home, the falling snow reminded James of the approaching holiday season and he felt himself caught up in the Christmas spirit. Good will to all men, and women, seemed to be a wonderful idea for when James gazed into Christie's beautifully sparkling eyes, he lost track of all time -- both his and hers!
