“That conversation happened a long time ago, and he didn’t say whether he wanted you dead . . . or something worse.”
My one true love has vanished into the past so I can seize my destiny here in the present day. It could honestly be worse. Married to my fated mate, raising his children, reforming my people’s chauvinistic culture. I’m finally getting the life I always wanted, right?
Too bad Wuotan really has it out for me now.
When my loved ones start meeting gruesome fates one by one, that peaceful life of mine crumbles into dust. Apparently, my ancient enemies have learned that I wield the power to travel time. And if I don’t hand it over to them so they can wreak havoc on the Teuton people, they’ll butcher everyone I love. What’s more precious to me: the people I hold dear, or the world at large?
No pressure.

C.L. Carhart has been writing since the age of 4, dabbling in everything from children’s books, to fantasy, to historical fiction. Eventually, her lifelong interest in European history inspired her to create a paranormal fantasy realm based on the Teutonic people groups. The His Name Was Augustin series provides a first glimpse at this other-world—a place rife with ancient mysteries and dark magic.
Born and raised in southern New Jersey, C.L. spends her free time hiking with her husband, enjoying metal music, snuggling her feline familiars, and dreaming of the wonders of Germany.
