History isn't what they remember. Because they haven't lived it yet.

When historian Kate Finnegan and genealogy researcher Ian Strait discover letters from the Revolutionary War written in their own handwriting, they dismiss it as an elaborate hoax. But within hours, they find themselves transported to 1777 Connecticut, thrust into the chaos of a war they've only studied in books.

Stranded in the past with only their historical knowledge to guide them, Kate and Ian must navigate a dangerous world of spies, battles, and political intrigue. As they struggle to blend in with the Revolutionary era, they discover something even more alarming: Benedict Arnold, the notorious traitor of American history, is being manipulated by a mysterious figure with knowledge of the future and plans to establish himself as Emperor of the Americas.

With the timeline unraveling around them, Kate and Ian form unlikely alliances with General Washington, British commander William Howe, and their own ancestors to prevent a catastrophic alteration of history. But their greatest challenge may be confronting the truth about their growing feelings for each other in a time where they were never meant to exist.

A thrilling blend of historical fiction, time travel adventure, and romance, "Benedict Altered" reimagines the American Revolution through the eyes of two modern people fighting to preserve the past, secure the future, and find their way home—if such a thing is even possible anymore.

Perfect for fans of Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series, Connie Willis's "Doomsday Book," Taylor Anderson's "Into the Storm," and readers who enjoy the historical depth of David McCullough with a speculative twist.
