Call Me Julian (wlw)
When overworked medical intern Juliana "Jules" Marquez wakes up in a rural village that shouldn't exist, she has no idea how she got there, only that it's definitely the 1800s, no one has ever heard of antibiotics, and being a woman with opinions is not in fashion. Desperate to survive, Jules poses as "Julian," a traveling doctor. With her quick wit, real-life trauma, rotation skills, and a very convincing coat, she accidentally impresses the local chief, and gets herself a room, a reputation, and a job. Enter Cassandra, the chief's beautiful, whip-smart daughter who has made dodging marriage proposals an art form. At first she was very skeptical but finds herself watching more often than not this odd, sarcastic "man" who knows more about the human body than anyone she's ever met, and who reacts to every flirtation like someone set him on fire. As Jules navigates herbal remedies, goat birthing, and the terrifying possibility that she might be stuck here forever, she finds herself falling for the village, for the people, and for the girl who might just see right through her. But time is a tricky thing. And secrets, even the well-meant ones, don't stay buried forever. Let's explore this sapphic historical romcom about identity, second chances, and falling for someone who makes you feel like you've known them forever-even if you've just met. Disclaimer...
