Annie Williamson is a young 18 year-old historian from the modern day, who is swept away to Muromachi Japan after a surprise encounter with creatures of myth and legend. There, 500 years ago in the past, she adopts a new name, Aki, and uses her knowledge to guide a young Akechi Mitsuhide through the events of history to come, granting him the advantage in the turbulent Warring States. However, as the years pass by and Mitsuhide matures while Aki remains unchanged, her feelings for Mitsuhide grow in the most unlikely of circumstance. She begins to question her purpose for having been brought to the past. Is she supposed to keep to what history dictated, by leading him towards the tragic death awaiting him in 1582? Or is Aki meant to save him? It is her decision to make.

Hester: Very good, was short too the point , not lingering on the abuse, pity you didn’t let him step in earlier knowing the abuse was happening, but this is almost real for some women who have gone through it, just wish they could all have a princess at te end of thete tunnel

Hey
I just came across your book your storytelling tone is actually refreshing.
Quick question though... are you focusing more on reader engagement or building visibility outside this season?
A thoughtful, emotionally rich time-slip romance that asks whether love should obey history — or dare to change it. Beautifully layered and haunting.
