Every month, Astrid Quinn loses a day.
She wakes up covered in mud, her muscles aching, and the taste of a name she can't remember lingering on her lips. Her friends think she's overworked. Her family chalks it up to stress. But deep down, Astrid knows there's something-someone-she's forgetting.
When a mysterious man named Ronan appears at her bookstore, his gold-flecked eyes seem to see straight through her. He knows things about her no stranger should, and the way he looks at her makes her chest ache with a longing she can't explain.
As Astrid uncovers the truth, she's drawn into a centuries-old curse, a love that defies time, and a choice that could cost her everything. Beneath the light of the full moon, memories of past lives come flooding back-lives where she loved Ronan, only to forget him over and over.
But the moon's curse is not easily broken. As the sky darkens and the world begins to unravel, Astrid must decide: stay in the life she knows, or risk everything for a love that has endured lifetimes.
**FINISHED**
Hello!! While the story is finished, I had so much fun writing it. It started as a challenge for myself after graduation, writing chapter a day. Okay, but I also wanted to be held accountable and Wattpad is an old home I haven't visited in a while so it felt right to do it here. I appreciate all the love this story has gotten! I may revisit this story again someday but until then, you can keep up with my new works here and on instagram @redhearthorror (my writers page) or @gothikvaleur (my authors page) 🫶🏽
