A novel of eternal love, fractured timelines, and the question that follows us through every life: what if?
Spanning centuries and civilizations,
If You Had Chosen Me
is a sweeping, time-bending love story about two souls bound across lifetimes; forever drawn together, forever torn apart.
In ancient Rome,
Epidia
is a Senator's daughter who is forced to betray her gladiator lover to protect their child. In Egypt,
Nefret
is a sacred scribe sworn to a lifetime of obedience, falling for a man whose death is written in the stars. In 17th-century England, a noblewoman and a soldier risk treason for a love the world calls forbidden. In the jazz-drenched nights of 1920s Newark, a singer and a bootlegger cling to each other even as secrets smolder between them.
And in the present day, a woman named Jovie Prince wakes from dreams that aren't hers, haunted by memories of lives she never lived, and a man she's never met... but has always loved.
Each life is a thread.
Each death, a knot.
Each reunion, a question:
If you had chosen me, would everything be different?
Told in stunning prose across five richly rendered timelines,
is a genre-defying debut about love that transcends death, choice, and time itself. For fans of
The Time Traveler's Wife
,
Outlander
, and
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
, this is a novel about how we find each other, and how we fight to stay.
