She wanted a gentleman…
She got a dangerously irresistible viscount—and a past that could destroy her.

Julia Lynton is done wasting time on arrogant, immature men. As a successful attorney, she knows exactly what she wants—a man with honor, passion, and integrity.

A man who doesn’t exist anymore.

Until she finds the jar.

Hidden inside an antique desk, the strange artifact comes with four chilling instructions:

Write the wish.
Speak it aloud.
Hide the jar.
At midnight… it comes true.

Skeptical—but desperate—Julia follows them.

What happens next changes everything.

Drawn to Linwood Park in England, Julia begins experiencing vivid dreams, whispers in the night… and impossible visions of the past. Lady Charlotte, the enigmatic woman who lives on the estate, isn’t surprised. She knows exactly what the jar can do—and gives Julia a centuries-old journal that shouldn’t exist.

Because inside it… Julia is already there.

With nothing left tying her to the present, Julia makes a choice she can’t undo.

At midnight, she wakes in 1815 Regency England.

And straight into the path of Viscount Matthew Linwood.

He is everything she’s ever wanted—honorable, commanding, quietly intense… and completely unattainable. Bound by a calculated betrothal to a woman who sees marriage as power, not love, Matthew should be off-limits.

But the moment he meets Julia, nothing else matters.

Not duty.
Not reputation.
Not the future already written for him.

Their attraction is immediate. Consuming. Impossible to resist.

And dangerously visible.

Because Matthew’s uncle, Devon, sees Julia too—and what begins as interest quickly turns into obsession. With the formidable Grandmother Linwood at his side, Devon sets a ruthless plan into motion:

Take Julia. Ruin her. Force her into marriage.

In a world where a woman’s reputation is everything, one scandal could trap Julia forever.

Now she’s caught between two powerful men—
one who would love her at any cost…
and one who would possess her at any cost.

And time is running out.

If Julia stays, she risks losing herself in a past that plays by brutal rules.

If she leaves, she loses the only man she’s ever truly wanted.

Some wishes give you everything you desire…
and demand everything in return.
