Synopsis

The Gods Time Forgot is set in Gilded Age Manhattan in 1870, where Rua, who remembers nothing but her own name, is mistaken by the wealthy Harrington family for their missing daughter Emma. Going along with the case of mistaken identity in hopes of uncovering the truth about herself, Rua is drawn to Finn, the Lord of Donore, a society newcomer who feels strangely familiar to her despite knowing he shouldn't get involved with a recently reappeared young woman. As their connection deepens, old Irish myth surfaces beneath Gilded Age Manhattan, and the two discover exactly why their love was forbidden in the first place.
