In a world where magic is a blight and time itself is unraveling, Abigail Greene lives a quiet life of herbs and remedies. Her sanctuary of predictable, natural laws is shattered when reality begins to "stutter"-a dropped coin hovers in mid-air, conversations echo from the future, and the horrifying creatures of Fae myth begin to tear through the weakened magical barrier that protects her realm. When a monstrous beast attacks her town, a desperate act to save a friend unleashes a torrent of forbidden power within Abigail, revealing her as a Chronurgist-a wielder of time magic, the most feared and hated of all abilities.
Her impossible act of power does not bring salvation, but a new kind of damnation. It summons Commander Julian Wilkins, a grim Fae warrior from a dying world, who sees not a terrified woman, but a living weapon-the key to his people's survival. Torn from her home and forced into a desperate alliance, Abigail becomes his prisoner, a tool to be used in a war she doesn't understand. Now, they are the most hunted people in two realms.
Pursued through the haunted, reality-bending Sundered Marches by both a fanatical witch-hunter with a personal vendetta and Fae assassins sent to silence them, Abigail and Julian must rely on each other to survive. As they unravel an ancient conspiracy, they discover the horrifying truth of her power: to save one world, she may have to sacrifice the other. This epic fantasy blends thrilling time-travel suspense with a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romance, where every choice could be the one that saves a kingdom or un-makes reality forever.
