Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy paranormal romance with real stakes, where the supernatural element feels earned rather than tacked on.
  • You're drawn to time-displaced romance where one character has to navigate a completely foreign world.
  • You like mythology-driven plots that blend historical detail with dark, atmospheric worldbuilding.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer contemporary romance without heavy paranormal or horror elements threatening the central relationship.
  • You want a lighter tone. This book leans into genuine danger and dark rituals rather than cosy vibes.
  • You need a large, established fanbase or hundreds of reviews before trying a book. This one's still building its readership.

About this book

An archaeologist unearths a well-preserved ancient Roman body and becomes entangled with an evil witch in this romantic urban fantasy. Quintus is a Roman soldier sent to Britannia to improve his marriage prospects and prevent the Druids from rising again. After Roman forces destroy the last Druid stronghold, he is sacrificed to a sacred Welsh bog and trapped there by the gods. Two thousand years later, archaeologist Asenath Hayes discovers his remarkably preserved remains—and the last thing she needs is for him to wake up. As Asenath investigates Druidic rituals to understand why Quintus was sacrificed and then resurrected, she must study the body directly, avoid her ex-lover and mentor who has his own agenda, and keep Quintus hidden. Despite his attraction to her, Quintus insists he wants to return home. Drawn to him by their shared secrets, Asenath is pulled deeper into the bog's mysteries. She must risk everything to protect him from hell's grasp as she uncovers forbidden rites, awakened deities, and an attraction that transcends time.
