The Gods Time Forgot: A Novel | Kelsie Sheridan Gonzalez
1 post | 1 read
Irish mythology collides with Gilded Age New York in this sweeping debut enemies-to-lovers historical romantasy, perfect for fans of Outlander and A Fate Inked in Blood. Manhattan, 1870. Rua knows only two things: her name and that she has no memories. So when the wealthy Harrington family mistakes Rua for their missing daughter, Emma, Rua goes along with the charade, hoping for answers about who she really is. As she tries to blend into a society she doesnt remember, shes drawn to a firmly off-limits man: the Lord of Donore, a newcomer to Manhattan society who is somehow familiar to Rua. Finn is new to this side of the Atlantic and knows that the best way to fit in as Lord of Donore is to make friends in high places and play by the rules of society. He knows he shouldnt become involved with a mysterious, recently missing debutante, but hes intrigued by Emma Harrington, and Finn has an uncanny feeling that this isnt the first time theyve met. With societal pressures mounting on both sides, Rua is determined to discover the truth about the missing Harrington daughter and her own past. But when her memories begin to return, theyre of a world far stranger than New York and traced in dark magic. As ancient secrets unfurl in Ruas memory, Rua and Finn are forced to uncover the mystery of their past and try to save their future. In this gritty and glittering romantasy, nothing and no one is as they seem.

Mehso-so

More historical romance with a supernatural element than “Romantasy”, it‘s an ok distraction from world events. While the narrative dragged in places, I appreciated the unique setting and take on the Morrigan. The villains are caricatures, Emma‘s mother is beyond horrible, and so many of the characters are obnoxious stereotypes. Rua and Finn are the only ones with depth. Recommended if you enjoy romance novels set in Gilded Age New York.
