Homeless and resourceful, Fable Ramsey thought she’d seen it all surviving on the streets of New York City. But nothing could have prepared her for the mysterious man with a sword and a glowing sapphire pocket watch, appearing out of nowhere. When a struggle over the timepiece catapults her back to 1718 England, Fable finds herself thrust into a world of powdered wigs, sprawling estates, and rigid social hierarchies—and she’s utterly out of her depth.
Benjamin West, the Duke of Colchester, is a soldier-turned-reluctant noble, hardened by loss and duty. Known for his disciplined demeanor and sharp wit, Ben has no patience for the fiery, outspoken woman who faints in his garden. Yet, there’s something about Fable that stirs his long-buried instincts to protect, even as she challenges every aspect of his carefully ordered world.
As Fable searches for a way back to her own time and Ben wrestles with his growing desire for her, the two are drawn together by a perilous secret: the pocket watch holds the key to reuniting Fable with her past—or destroying their future. With an enemy from Fable’s time pursuing them, and the societal pressures of 18th-century England closing in, they must learn to trust each other.
