“Ruby Red” is the first novel in the “Ruby Red” series and was released in the year 2011. Gwyneth Shepherd’s beautiful and sophisticated cousin Charlotte has been preparing her whole life for time traveling. Unexpectedly it winds up being Gwyneth who takes a spin to a different era right in the middle of one of her classes.

She has to unearth the mystery of why her mom lied to her about her own birth date in order to ward off suspicion about her abilities, and brush up on her history. Gwyneth also has to work with Gideon, a time traveler from a family that is similarly gifted that passes the gene on through its male line, and his presence becomes, over time, more insufferable and more essential. Together, Gideon and Gwyneth journey through time to figure out who, in contemporary London and the eighteenth century they can actually trust.

Gwen has got plenty of help, at least. Lesley, her best friend, follow up on every lead diligently on the Internet. Xemerius, the gargoyle demon that has been following her since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers up advice on everything. James the ghost teaches Gwen just how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. That’s right, then there is Gideon. The Diamond. One moment he is very warm, while the next he is cold. Gwen is unsure what is going on there, however she is pretty much destined to figure it out.
