The Carousel of Forgotten Places

By S. Hati

A romantic, time travelling fantasy filled with humour and a charming cast of found family, the perfect read for those craving a whimsical, cosy romantasy in the vein of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries.

For 500 years, immortal timekeeper Ryka has run a cozy magical fair on the edges of time, managing the time threads and protecting the spirits that live there. Among a found family of quirky ghosts, a spectral cat, and even her insufferable boss, the annoying (and sexy) time-god Everest, she gets by with a few golden rules: don't interfere with the timelines she traverses, never stop looking for a way back to her own timeline, and avoid Everest at all costs.

That is until the carousel at the heart of the fair begins showing signs of time rot, causing ruptures that culminate in the unprecedented: a live human falling through time and landing at their feet. With the fair descending into chaos, Ryka and Everest must team up to get this human home, find the source of the rot, and keep the fabric of time from tearing apart - all while hoping that the 500 years of feelings between them don't get in their way.
