A modern-day Irish mythology historical romance retelling, with the vibes you would get from outlander but with a Manhattan gilded age twist.

Rua is our FMC who is suffering from an unfortunate bout of memory loss, all she can remember is her name. While Rua is searching for answers on why she cant remember anything a wealthy family mistakes her for their missing daughter Emma. While she is playing this role of the lost daughter to further find answers on her missing past and the real missing daughter she is out in society meeting and mingling hoping to find clues. One night she meets a mysterious new gentleman, the Lord of Donore who is strictly off limits, yet she feels as if she has a connection with him.

Rua is very differently than the other ladies in high society, making her some what of an outcast and the family who took her in threatens to send her to the asylum. Finn steps in and saves her from her fate. Finn ( the lord of Donore ) and Rua come to discover pieces of their past and fight to save their futures. https://lexariffe.com/the-gods-time-forgot/

This is a gritty and enchanting fantasy romance mixed with the right dose of mythology. This book almost checks all the boxes. However it felt like something was missing. The banter with the MCs was great, and i really did enjoy them both. I think the supporting characters irked me more than anything , however i feel as if some of them were intended to. I do wish that it was a little more on the fantasy side as well. Over all I really did enjoy this book and will be looking at others written by Kelsie Sheridan Gonzalez and will be buying a copy of this for myself for my bookshelf in hopes that this may be a series.
