Winter came with blood on its hands.
One moment, Isabella Carter was a sharp-tongued New Yorker trying to survive the chaos of modern life.
The next—
she was kneeling in the middle of a royal palace four hundred years in the past… staring directly into the eyes of Crown Prince Lee Ji-ho.
A prince feared by the court.
Watched by the kingdom.
And slowly breaking beneath the weight of a throne built to consume him.
In a world where loyalty is bought with silence and betrayal hides behind silk robes and smiling faces, Bella finds herself trapped inside a dangerous game she was never meant to enter.
One wrong word can cost a life.
One rumor can start a war.
And one forbidden glance at the Crown Prince can destroy them both.
But the deeper Bella is pulled into palace life, the more she begins uncovering secrets history tried to bury.
A poisoned court.
A rebellion growing in the shadows.
A Prime Minister willing to burn an entire kingdom to keep power.
And a terrifying truth hidden behind Ji-ho's cold eyes:
the Crown Prince already knows how his story ends.
Yet somehow…
Bella becomes the one thing capable of changing him.
Changing history.
Changing everything.
From moonlit palace corridors and hidden meetings behind paper doors… to assassination attempts, political conspiracies, heartbreak, war, and a love powerful enough to shake a dynasty—
Intertwined: When Time Takes You Back is a sweeping historical fantasy romance about fate, sacrifice, and two souls trying to hold onto each other while an entire kingdom tries to tear them apart.
Because the palace does not fear love.
It fears what love makes people willing to destroy.
