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.
