The Broken Key of Rome

History is breaking where it first learned how to lie.

When Evelyn follows a fractured clue from modern-day Rome into the past, she lands in the heart of a city on the edge of political collapse, where public records are being altered, crowds are being steered, and one small symbol keeps appearing in the margins: a broken key.

And Leo is already there.

Drawn together across lifetimes and disasters, Evelyn and Leo have survived fire, smoke, and shattered timelines. But Rome is different. This is not just another fracture to survive. This is the origin point, the first place someone learned to turn memory into a weapon and history into a script.

As a deadly public event builds toward catastrophe, Evelyn and Leo must stop a saboteur who doesn't just want bloodshed. He wants a clean story. A single version of the past. One lie strong enough to echo across centuries.

To stop him, they will have to choose what survives: the archive or the crowd, the record or the body, the truth or each other.

Perfect for readers who love time-travel romance with high stakes, forbidden history, layered mysteries, and a couple who find each other in every lifetime.
