Timeless

"Perhaps some souls do not meet for the first time. Perhaps they have been finding one another in every life-and losing one another in every war."

Yorkshire, England, 1913.

Melody Harcourt was born into a name older than the house crumbling beneath it. Raised to be graceful, obedient, and useful, she has always known that one day her family would ask her to make a sacrifice.

She never imagined the sacrifice would be herself.

Arden Vale has nothing a gentleman ought to possess-no fortune, no title, and scarcely enough money to keep his ailing mother warm. By day, his hands are blackened with printing ink. By night, they coax beautiful music from the piano of a house respectable society refuses to name.

When Melody hears Arden playing the unfinished song she has kept secret from the world, something between them awakens-something reckless, impossible, and strangely familiar.

But Melody has already been promised to a wealthy man whose charming smile conceals a darkness no one else can see.

And Arden knows that love is a luxury poor men cannot afford.

As war approaches and the world begins to fracture, stolen meetings become desperate promises, letters carry hearts across battlefields, and time threatens to bury everything they were too afraid to say.

Because some loves are not meant for peaceful lives.

Some must survive distance, jealousy, poverty, duty, and the cruel hands of men who believe love can be purchased.

And some souls will search through every lifetime until they find each other again.

Written in printing ink and unfinished melodies, theirs is a romance torn apart by wars both within and without-yet destined to outlive them all.

A love that was always meant to be Timeless.
