He Returned Through the Years

When a storm hurls surveyor Owen Hart against the gates of Brairglass, Mira Bell makes the one mistake she can least afford—she lets him in. Hidden high on the mountain, Brairglass is no ordinary garden. Its paths twist, its flowers answer promises, and time does not move honestly within its walls. Mira has spent years tending its impossible seasons alone, paying a price she can never fully explain. Owen belongs in Northwake below, where roads, bridges, markets, and family all move in a rhythm she can never share. But he keeps coming back. And every return costs more. What begins as one dangerous night becomes a slow-burn love neither of them can safely name. The moonvine blooms when he promises to return. The distance between their lives grows sharper with every visit. And when the garden itself begins to break—splitting seasons, shifting paths, and waking old secrets buried in Vera's notes—Mira is forced to face the one choice she has feared longer than love itself. To save Brairglass, she may have to destroy it. To keep Owen, she may have to ask him to risk the years she refuses to steal. He Returned Through the Years is a sweeping standalone romantasy for readers who love time travel romance, slow-burn fantasy romance, forbidden love, magical gardens, and emotionally intense love stories where devotion is tested by impossible timing. Some promises bloom. Others demand a price. When time itself stands between them, can Mira and Owen ever claim the same morning?
