His Fist, My Face, My Pillow is a true story of Becky's life in Jamaica and the struggles, abuse, and hurt she had to endure from the very people who vowed to love and protect her. The disappointments and hurt Becky endured are what some psychologist might phrase as "survival of the fittest." She lost both parents at an early age and had to live with her grandmother. Living an adult life for Becky began after that. She spent time on and off the streets. She was forced to marry at an early age and was physically abuse by her husband. She was almost raped by family members who were old enough to be her father. She was, however, given a second chance when she met a man that introduced her to opportunities.

Charlotte Harper’s life isn’t going as she expected. She had to change her course of studies, her ex-boyfriend has hooked up with her best friend, and she misses her mother desperately since her passing. Searching for meaning and direction, she pours herself into her family history, researching her roots. When she learns of a possible ancestor named Elizabeth from the early nineteenth century, who was hung for the crime of witchcraft, she is determined to try to save her fate. Charlotte explores the strength of her Wiccan beliefs and the powers within her stones, preparing a spell to transport herself back in time nearly two centuries. She arrives at a small, sleepy town on the shore of Owasco Lake, New York. Intending to stay just long enough to save her ancestor, she creates a cover story and attempts to fit in, but after waiting for weeks with no word of Elizabeth, she immerses herself in the community. She works in the General Store to earn her keep and uses her knowledge of herbs and medicine to help those in need. She soon forms strong bonds with those around her, finding herself drawn into the simple and fulfilling life of a bygone era, and even falls in love—more deeply than she ever thought possible. As the deadline of the execution nears, visions of the future begin to plague her and those around her. Can she truly save Elizabeth and undo what happened almost two centuries ago? With two lives on the line, she knows she must face the consequences of meddling with time, even if it costs her everything.
