The Midnight Ferry

About this book

In the mundane world of Seattle, 28-year-old underdog ferry terminal clerk Elara Voss spends her nights working on the rain-slicked piers and caring for her chronically ill brother. She possesses a unique, hidden gift for pattern recognition, noticing details others dismiss. Across an invisible divide lies a parallel Seattle where magic openly shapes society, strictly controlled by elite Memory Keepers who hoard emotional power in luminous crystals. When Elara discovers a tarnished brass token etched with an impossible date, she inadvertently bridges the two realities. The token connects her to Rowan Vale, a disgraced Memory Keeper architect whose callused hands carve emotion-based wards. Together, they uncover a terrifying conspiracy: a corrupt Council faction is deliberately fracturing the barrier between timelines to create an infinite memory reservoir. As a slow-burn romance develops through vulnerable late-night conversations across the divide, their growing resonance threatens to accelerate the worlds' collapse. Elara and Rowan must navigate a perilous web of magic, sabotage, and forgotten history to protect both Seattles before the elite can erase entire lifetimes.
