Carried to a fantasy future by a dark-eyed, time-traveling stranger, can Leonor overcome the guilt that haunts her and fulfill her destiny... while navigating her growing attraction to her newfound protector? Leonor, a student at present-day Harvard, would do anything for the people she holds dear: her roommates, her beloved little brother - and the brilliant but eccentric Professor Mosey, the mentor to whom she faithfully delivers meals three times a day while he conducts secret chemistry experiments that have earned him the nickname The Batty Professor. One night, Leonor's world is shattered when mysterious and deadly spies arrive at Professor Mosey's office to steal the discovery he made just hours earlier: a chemical solution that, when consumed, allows humans to time-travel. When Leonor becomes the spies' next target, she has no escape - until a man with midnight-black eyes whisks her three hundred years into the future. There, she discovers a world whose most powerful figure harbors dark plans to use Professor Mosey's time-travel solution to transform all of reality: past, present, and future. Plans that can be stopped, if at all, only by a secret that Leonor possesses. To prevent her enemy's designs from taking shape, Leonor will need the help of the newfound protector who carried her to the future, a man defined by his rigidly disciplined nature. Together, the two must navigate a city of elites, servants, mysteries, and masquerade balls. Their quest will require them to confront painful secrets from their own pasts, but Leonor is determined to do whatever it takes to save the world from doom. To save her family and friends. And to save the man with whom she has begun to share an attraction as unexpected as it is undeniable and irresistible. *** The first few story parts are long, then the parts become shorter.

In "Unwritten Shadows of a Clouded Mind," Lazy takes readers on a poignant journey through the labyrinth of the human heart. Through a series of interconnected chapters, each a story of its own, the book explores the intense emotions that arise from love that is never fully realized, the pain of watching someone you love choose another, and the quiet devastation of letting go. This book is not just a collection of narrative, prose, and emotions, but a mirror reflecting the deepest corners of the soul. It invites readers to sit with their own emotions, to confront the shadows that linger in the back of their minds, and to find solace in the shared experience of heartbreak and healing. With a voice that is both lyrical and raw, Lazy captures the essence of what it means to love deeply, to lose profoundly, and to ultimately find peace within the chaos of the mind.
