London, 1900. Alai Beaumont lives in a world that insists she marry well, speak softly, and never dream too loudly. But Alai dreams anyway of true love, of freedom, and of a book that has captured her heart. A tale of a misunderstood prince trapped in an arranged marriage, burdened by duty and aching for something real.
What she doesn't know is that her father's old fountain pen is no ordinary pen. Each word she writes into her journal travels across centuries,into the hands of Prince Callum, a brooding royal in a distant kingdom and a different time, who has no idea the book is about him.
When Callum finds Alai's words scribbled into his private journal, he writes back. What begins as disbelief turns into obsession. Letters cross through the veil of time, tethering two hearts that have never met,until magic gives them the chance.
But love always demands sacrifice.
And some ink comes at a cost.
