TIME IS CLOSING IN…
Sitting hidden in the branches of an oak tree, Cecily de Malet watches a woman die slowly in the window of a great manor house. The woman’s face is her own.
She would rather vanish from time itself than become her.
Sixteen-year-old Cecily has fourteen days to escape a forced marriage to a man old enough to be her grandfather—a powerful lord who collects young wives the way other men collect land. Her only option is her grandfather Anton’s forbidden machine, a device she was warned never to touch. She touches it anyway.
What follows is a breathless journey through medieval England—from the mud and blood of Edward I’s Scottish campaigns to the candlelit great halls of Kent—as Cecily fights to survive a century that isn’t hers. Stranded sixty years in the future, penniless and hunted, she has only one unlikely ally: Finn de Veyron, infuriating, fiercely capable, and hiding a secret that could destroy everything between them.
As the past closes in and time itself begins to fracture, Cecily and Finn must find their way back to each other—and back to their own time—before the future rewrites itself without them.
Because somewhere in a sunlit manor window, another version of Cecily is running out of time. And so, somewhere, some when, is she.
No Place in Time is the first book in the Time-Fractured Series—a sweeping young adult historical time-travel romance set in the world of Patti A. Pierucci’s beloved Hand of Maud Series. Readers who fell in love with the families of medieval Kent will recognize the world, the bloodlines, and the stakes… and discover what the next generation is capable of when time itself becomes the enemy.
Perfect for fans of:
Time-travel romance and medieval historical fiction
Clean, slow-burn YA romance with strong heroines
Medieval England, the Scottish Wars of Independence, and Edward I
Strong female protagonists, forbidden love, and enemies-to-lovers romance
Readers who love history that feels lived-in and dangerous
If you loved the Hand of Maud Series, don’t miss this first book in the Time-Fractured Series—where the next generation of characters you already love faces an enemy no sword can defeat: time itself.
