Tessa dies alone in a freezing attic—broken, bedridden, and haunted by regrets. But fate isn’t finished with her. Two quarrelsome angels admit she was never meant for such misery, and send her back to her fifteen-year-old self in 1885 Victorian England—memories intact, hope rekindled, and nothing left to lose.
Armed with hard-won wisdom, Tessa sets out to rewrite her story. She’ll save her fragile mother, protect her baby sister, and defy the violence that nearly destroyed them all. Every choice she makes sends new ripples through her world—building secret schools, making friends (and enemies), fighting for justice, and daring to dream of love.
But changing the past comes at a cost. The closer Tessa gets to freedom, the more she realizes that every decision echoes—sometimes in ways she never imagined.
This is an immersive, emotional historical novel about survival, rebellion, and the unstoppable strength of women who refuse to stay silent. Perfect for fans of heart-wrenching drama, second chances, and stories that linger long after the final page.
