The Book of Passage: A Time Travel Historical Steamy Romance
When historian Caroline Moore opens an unmarked book hidden deep within a library's forgotten stacks, she expects nothing more than another academic curiosity. Instead, the book tears her-and a stranger named Thomas Reed-out of the modern world and casts them into 18th-century rural England, where survival depends not on knowledge... but deception.
Stranded in the village of Bramleigh, Caroline and Thomas quickly learn that outsiders are not tolerated. To avoid suspicion, punishment, or exile, they must pose as husband and wife in a society ruled by rigid customs, relentless scrutiny, and unforgiving laws. Every glance is watched. Every word weighed. And one woman in particular-Agnes Pryce, a powerful widow with a talent for quiet control-seems determined to uncover the truth.
What begins as a calculated performance slowly becomes something far more dangerous.
Forced into shared hardship, physical labor, and intimate proximity, Caroline's carefully guarded independence collides with Thomas's instinctive strength and steady resolve. Desire grows where trust was never meant to exist. Passion flares in stolen moments. And love-unexpected, fierce, and impossible-threatens everything they've built to survive.
But the book that brought them here has its own rules... and its own final demand.
The Book of Passage is a slow-burn, emotionally rich time-travel romance filled with historical tension, forbidden intimacy, and sensual heat. Perfect for readers who love immersive historical settings, forced proximity, high-stakes passion, and love that defies time itself.
Step through the passage. The past is waiting.
