By R.M. Hines

This novel is part 5 of the twelve-book historical fiction adventure series, Borrowed Stardust - Who Will I Be Today? Victoria Mason and her husband, Detective Henry Harris, possess a magical amulet enabling them to shapeshift into historical figures and travel through time. Their journey includes embodying Cleopatra and Mark Antony during the fall of Alexandria, and later Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow during the 1930s, blending romance, political intrigue, and action. Victoria inherits an amulet allowing her to transform into any person from a photograph and travel through time, sharing this power with her husband Henry. Their adventures begin with Victoria shifting into famous historical women and meeting and marrying Henry, who later joins her in these transformations. Victoria and Henry use the amulet to become Cleopatra and Mark Antony during the politically tumultuous fall of Alexandria. They experience court intrigues, Roman threats, and an assassination attempt on Cleopatra, deepening their understanding of the historical figures' lives and love. The document vividly portrays the chaos, despair, and the historical turning point marking the end of their reign. Following their historical immersion in ancient times, Victoria and Henry shift focus to the 1930s, adopting the personas of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. They prepare for their outlaw adventure, exploring themes of rebellion, love, and desperation in a modern context. They execute some polite but effective bank robberies in small-towns, followed by a quest to acquire authentic 1930s attire to embody their roles fully. Will they escape the final shoot out or will their story end on that fateful night in Louisiana? Their adventure blends historical empathy with playful immersion, balancing danger with romance.
