They came to build a home. What they built was a future. On the remote Fey Isles, Yvaine and Caelen have gathered kin from once-warring clans to shape something new-something forged not by prophecy, but by choice. Together, they raise the beginnings of Clan MacKinnear, a haven where peace is more than legend. Yet even as their hands build walls and hearts knit bonds, Yvaine feels the tug of a world left behind.

She stayed-not for duty, but for love. Her family lives four centuries ahead. But Caelen is here, steady and true, the man who makes her feel whole in a way she cannot name. Staying wasn't simple. But it was right. Because love like theirs is not found twice. And this time, it was her choice to remain.

When danger arrives, her instinct is clear-family. Threats loom beyond the shores of their fragile new home. And as fear grips the clan, Yvaine's first thought is of the people who stood by her before she knew who she was. The ones who always showed up when it mattered. The ones she longs for still. But they are four hundred years away-and the only hope is a whisper across the ages.

Because family doesn't follow time-it follows love. And when love calls, loyalty answers without hesitation.

If you believe that family is who shows up when it matters most-and that love is worth fighting for, across any distance... this story is yours.
