About Across Fire and Time
She was meant to burn. Instead, she vanished.
In 1691 Salem, eighteen-year-old Abigail Bishop is condemned as a witch. Branded by whispers and betrayed by those closest to her, she faces the flames with only a forbidden spell—and the will to survive. In a single breath of fire and fury, she vanishes from the pyre…and awakens in the wilds of 1870s Wyoming.
There, a quiet rancher named Rhett offers shelter and something she’s never known: gentleness. But the past clings like smoke. Abigail’s powers begin to fade. Her body weakens. And strange memories stir—of an old woman who once saved her, of a future that feels like a forgotten dream.
When a mysterious girl named Mercy arrives, drawn by blood and magic, Abigail begins to unravel the truth: she is the woman who saved herself. Mercy is the daughter she has not yet borne. And time is not finished with either of them.
As their shared magic awakens, so does a choice: return to the fire of Salem and face what still hunts them—or forge a new fate, no matter the cost.
A sweeping tale of magic, time, and defiance, Across Fire and Time is perfect for fans of Alix E. Harrow, Alice Hoffman, and Adrienne Young.
