He's a blacksmith destined to die. She's a scientist sent to save herself. Together, they will break history.
Dr. Mara Kline has a PhD in Theoretical Physics and a crippling phobia of intimacy. Desperate to cure the PTSD stemming from a past-life murder, she agrees to a radical DARPA experiment: travel back to 1384, inhabit her past self, and rewrite her karma. Her plan is logical, cold, and entirely scientific.
Until she walks into a 14th-century forge and meets Elias Rowan.
He is grit, muscle, and fire-a medieval warrior who looks at her with a hunger that transcends time. Elias isn't just a variable in an equation; he is the fierce protector she never knew she needed. As their undeniable chemistry explodes into a scorching affair, Mara's defenses melt away, and she realizes she isn't just in the past to survive. She's there to live.
But their sweeping romance is built on a devastating lie. Mara knows Elias is fated to die in a muddy field in France, and the device on her wrist is counting down the days until she is ripped back to the future. With a jealous merchant hunting them and her time machine's battery dying, Mara must decide if a love that spans six centuries is worth the ultimate sacrifice.
