London, England, 1483. When young Cly’s prank goes awry, her two friends disappear into thin air. Cly’s father, an inventor working closely with the King, panics. Because those two boys? They were the heirs to the English throne. And Cly has accidentally awakened powers she didn’t know she possessed—the powers of time travel. Now they have to run. Hide.
Los Angeles, California, 2023. Cole Marshall has submitted his passions, desires, and relationships to his work. The billionaire CEO’s path to glory lies in a mysterious time-bending substance—one he hadn’t invented, but stolen in order to salvage the family company, which had once saved his life. When the substance begins to fail, Cole’s life and reputation become a ticking clock as he must figure out how to replicate it. Little does he know that its righteous owner is already on her way to destroy his plans …
Florence, Italy, 1499. Grown up on the idyllic countryside, Cly remembers little of her former life, except that she must never use her inexplicable powers. Temptation grows when she discovers she could save her father and right the wrongs of her past. All she needs is a vial of a mysterious liquid—one that ended up in the hands of a man from the twenty-first century.
When Cly shows up in the present, pretending to be Cole’s new assistant, a game of deception is on—and so is the game of attraction. Their secrets can’t stop Cole and Cly from feeling the electric sparks of having found a like mind, but their loyalties can. Because they aren’t the only ones after the vial, and the more entangled their feelings become, the deeper they fall into a conspiracy that has been gearing up for centuries …
