Two hundred and forty-five years ago, high-class Englishman, Carter Patton, happened upon a book which transported him to a different world. After a century of searching for a way back, five decades of wandering Braemyr, and another century of self-appointed isolation, he sees no end to his dull existence.

Aura Laufeld is on the cusp of finishing her PhD, but she's far from living her best life. Distanced from her friends and recently betrayed by her ex-boyfriend, she finds an escape in the local library. An escape which becomes all too real when she opens an antique novel and awakens in an unfamiliar land with colorful fingers and unruly magic at her disposal.

Brought together by fate, Carter and Aura struggle to find common ground. Attraction draws them closer but lies tear them apart. In the wake of two giant revelations, the handsome and passionate, Myrick Walden, promises Aura potential answers to her teleportation on the condition she help his organization with a monumental task.

Ensnared by politics which aren't their own, Carter grapples with romantic feelings and an uncertain future, while Aura struggles to restrain her magic and spurn two interested men. With the rareness of her abilities drawing dangerous intrigue and testing the loyalties of those they thought were allies, both begin to question whether their old lives are still attainable even when details of their transport are finally revealed.
