Help! It's driving me nuts. This was a time-travel romance about a young woman who goes back to the silent film era. It's possible she became her grandmother, but I can't remember. I do recall that her grandmother was sick in present day and each time the young woman came back she'd visit her in the hospital. I think this book came out around 1987-88 as a paperback, had a pocket watch and lace and pearls on the front cover. Also, it centered around the Washington Square Arch in the wintertime. Any help is appreciated!

It just might be in there. Thought I had it for a moment with a Constance O'day Flannery novel. Thanks for posting that link, Karen!

shamless, I don't think that's it, but it sounds really good! Could be wrong, but it might . . . fingers crossed . . . might be The Gift by Constance O'Day Flannery. Think I'll order it, and if it isn't the one then, oh well, at least I have a new book to read!

Thanks to each of you for helping me with this!

I think you're right. Read my back cover to check. Knew it had the 20s involved... and I think you'd enjoy it. But definitely not the one you're looking for. Sorry!

You might want to post this one on SB/TB (Smart Bitches, Trashy Books -- their verbiage, not mine). They have a "find this book" feature and I don't think I've seen the membership ever fail. Someone always remembers!
