In 1864, a young woman’s future is not her own. At seventeen, Y/N is expected to become the perfect wife—pure, obedient, and silent. Her marriage to Edward Grove has already been arranged, a union built on duty rather than choice. In a society where stepping out of line can destroy a girl’s life, she is running out of time to hold onto the freedom she’s always longed for. Then something impossible happens. Luca Pierce wakes up in a world that shouldn’t exist—1864, far from the life he knew in 2010. Struggling to survive in a time with unforgiving rules, he takes on a new identity and tries to blend in. But nothing about this place feels right—especially not the way women are expected to live. When Luca meets Y/N, their connection is immediate—and dangerous. Because in a world ruled by reputation and strict morality, even the smallest act of defiance can have devastating consequences. As Y/N is pulled closer to a future she never chose, and Luca risks exposing himself with every step, they are forced to decide: Follow the roles they’ve been given… or risk everything to break free.
