Within the Space of a Heartbeat

In the sequel to Within the Space of a Second, old lovers and new enemies confront deadly secrets at a time-travel academy where no one can be trusted – for fans of slow-burn romance, gripping magical realism and shocking plot twists.

It’s been more than a year since Mariella said goodbye to Parker, the charismatic time traveler who rewrote her past and stole her heart. Determined to reunite with him, she enters Neurovida, a secret institution that will train her to time travel – even if, according to Mariella’s haunting dreams, Neurovida is also the place she’ll die.

At the academy, Mariella and the other recruits face brutal competition and gruelling tests designed to dwindle their numbers. Mariella will do anything to maintain her place, but when a near-fatal blow forces her into a dangerous bargain with fellow recruit Matthews, she’s pulled closer to the very person she fears most.

Haunted by a past built on lies and desperate to reclaim her future, Mariella must embrace the power she’s spent her life fearing… even if it means relying on the one person who could destroy her.
