Between the Rifts

Rain sees patterns others miss because her mind exists in seventeen timelines at once. When dimensional rifts start tearing through reality, her scattered attention becomes a superpower. Her time-blindness? The ability to see across timelines. Her hyperfocus? The weapon that stops reality from collapsing.

When dimensional detective Orion an ancient fae flickering between states of existence steps through a rift into her investigation, Rain finally meets someone as wrong-timeline as she is. He exists in multiple dimensions. She exists in multiple mental timelines. Together, they're either going to solve the impossible murders plaguing Manhattan or shatter what's left of reality trying.

But someone is using Rain's stolen research to build a weapon that fragments consciousness across infinite timelines. Someone who knows exactly how to exploit her scattered mind. And stopping them means Rain must do the one thing she's always avoided: choose presence over possibility, commit to one timeline, and trust that being scattered isn't a flaw it's exactly what the world needs.

Perfect for fans of:
- Neurodivergent protagonists who don't need fixing
- Fae romance with actual science (ish)
- Found family who choose each other over blood
- Dimensional rifts and consciousness fragmentation
- Save the Cat structure with satisfying HEA
- Opposites attract (scattered human + ancient scattered fae)

Content notes: Moderate steam, violence related to dimensional warfare, authentic representation (hyperfocus, time-blindness, executive dysfunction), found family dynamics, mental health themes.

This is Book 1 in the Temporal Rift series. Each book features a different couple with complete HEA, while the overarching dimensional threat builds across the series.

For everyone whose mind exists in seventeen timelines at once you're exactly right for the reality you're meant to change.
