Lost In Time

LOST IN TIME
Written by: Tala (former Roo | empresswinteroo)

Genre: Romance / Fantasy / Slice of Life
Setting: 19th-20th century
Language: English, Filipino

Women in the 19th century had to navigate a minefield of social etiquette-proper manners, modesty, and a perpetually reserved demeanor were non-negotiable. Their every move was under the microscope, with maintaining a spotless reputation being the key to securing a prestigious marriage proposal from society's most esteemed men.

Forget about being loud, expressive, or feisty. And as for wearing your favorite summer shorts? Not a chance. Imagine enduring the agony of maintaining perfect posture while your back aches, your feet go numb from endless dancing, and-here's the kicker-you will never be able to satisfy your food cravings and comfort food! Fries? Ice cream? Lumpiang shanghai?! There's none!

In short, if Kiara ever time-traveled to this era, she'd be doomed.
Totally doomed.
