Sarah M. Eden

ABOUT THE BOOK

With more than a million books sold, USA Today bestselling author Sarah M. Eden is an undeniable, if unsung, publishing success story. Her richly imagined, inventive historical novels have won her both critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase, and her latest, The Tides of Time (the first in a new romance series about the power of connection across centuries) invites readers into the heart of the French Revolution and 1873 England. 

In 1793 France, Lili Minet boards a ship bound for England, making a desperate escape from the clutches of Robespierre’s revolutionary Tribunal. But when a violent storm hits, it not only throws Lili overboard, but it launches her eighty years into the future, leaving her stranded in unfamiliar 1873 England. 

Rescued from the sea by lighthouse keeper Armitage Pierce, Lili struggles to trust her savior while guarding the secrets of her extraordinary journey. Armitage does not anticipate her silent, cold response to his gallant efforts. As Armitage’s grandfather offers her solace and understanding, Lili begins to heal, and a fragile bond grows between her and Armitage.

But the shadows of her past refuse to stay buried. The same danger that forced Lili to flee revolutionary France threatens her new life, putting her love and her future at risk. Together, Lili and Armitage must face the ultimate challenge: whether their bond is strong enough to overcome the perils of time and history itself.

Perfect for fans of historical fiction as well as YA, time-slip adventures, and unforgettable love stories.
