Robin Perry is sure he's going to Hell when he's hanged for highway robbery in Regency England. Instead, he time-travels to a modern Caribbean resort to save elementary schoolteacher, Molly Montgomery, from marrying the wrong man, Wall Street hotshot Allan Ferguson. Instantly drawn to Molly, Robin realizes she is the love of his life and the key to his soul's salvation, and he vows to win her at any cost. Torn between her desire for Robin and Ferguson's promise of financial security for herself and her ailing mother, Molly must make the most important decision of her life. As the two men battle for her affections, she must also contend with her demanding mother, the local Godfather and his predatory wife, and her fears that Robin, who insists he's from another century, is hopelessly insane. Molly and Robin share a passion older than time, but is a future together possible when Ferguson, her mother, and even the police, conspire to keep them apart?
