A time-bending love story between a prickly young woman and a carefree stranger, who are tasked with saving the universe—after accidentally destroying it in the first place.
Genevieve Newhouse and Ash Hargreaves weren't supposed to meet like this. Unless it was always meant to be ...
Gen is a fastidious science prodigy with a chip on her shoulder, and she can turn herself invisible.
Happy-go-lucky Ash has just escaped a sheltered (read: cultish) childhood, and he can manipulate time.
The gifted eighteen-year-olds cross paths at the 1934 Chicago World's Fair, where Genevieve's experimental physics project causes an apocalyptic explosion. Ash tries to avert catastrophe by gallantly rewinding time a few minutes, but instead, he transports them back to 1893. The duo finds themselves trapped in an unfamiliar, unwelcoming era, with no idea how to return to their own time—or if their own time even exists. Their cataclysmic leap across decades might have destroyed the world as they know it ...
Fate and free will intertwine in this page turning historical romance that sets two irresistible strangers down a chaotic, potentially apocalyptic path. "Will they or won't they" takes on a whole new meaning as Gen and Ash fight for survival while falling in love.
Hand to fans of Immortal Longings and Anatomy: A Love Story, and don't miss companion novels Murder for the Modern Girl and A Starlet's Secret to a Sensational Afterlife.
"Kulper (A Starlet's Secret to a Sensational Afterlife) illustrates how race and gender inequality barred women and BIPOC individuals from scientific acclaim. Snappy dialogue, dynamic supporting characters, and robust worldbuilding further serve to deliver a satisfying combination of sparkling romance andwhirlwind adventure." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Ash, who tries to redeem the worst people in his life and never needs to outshine his talented love interest, is genuinely heartwarming, and the friendship between Genevieve and Miss Flemming is a joy. Delightful timey-wimey adventure that would make smashing television." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"The story is full of action and heart, and at least a few unexpected twists. Give to readers who like a little mystery and adventure in their historical fiction, especially ones featuring a spunky lead." —Booklist
"A feel-good stand-alone for fans of time travel and romance, with an entertaining blend of science, humor, and feminist themes." —School Library Journal
