Overview

Some love stories refuse to stay in one century.

Maeve has finally done the impossible—she’s returned home after years lost to time.
But home no longer fits. The woman she loved is gone, the world has moved on, and the cost of survival has left Maeve carrying a grief no timeline can erase.

Then she meets her.

A woman who looks exactly like the lover she lost.
A woman who shouldn’t exist.
A woman who reveals a truth Maeve never imagined: she has been searching for her too—traveling the long way, living through the years instead of leaping across them.

The Long Way Home is a slow-burn, emotionally grounded queer time travel romance about women who love across centuries, endure history instead of escaping it, and choose each other again and again in worlds that were never built for them.

Set across shifting timelines and forgotten margins of history, this novel explores:

• Love that survives displacement and loss
• Queer identity across hostile historical eras
• Time travel that costs something real
• Found safety in the aftermath of survival
• Women who are no longer willing to disappear quietly

This is not a story about fixing the past.
It’s a story about endurance, choice, and finding home after everything familiar has been stripped away.

✨ Perfect for readers who love:

• Lesbian romance with emotional depth
• Time travel romance with consequences
• Queer historical fiction
• Slow-burn sapphic love stories
• Found family and survival narratives
• Underserved LGBTQ+ voices in speculative fiction
  
  The Long Way Home opens The Way Through trilogy, a queer romance series that moves through time, tests survival, and insists on being seen.

📖 If you believe love can outlast centuries—and that some journeys are worth taking the long way—this story is for you.

Some journeys are instant.
Some take a lifetime.
