Publisher's Summary

A witch is cursed to relive a doomed love affair through many lifetimes, as both troubled muse and frustrated artist, in this haunting debut novel.

Helen Lambert has lived several lives - a young piano virtuoso in 1890s Paris, an actress in 1930s Hollywood, a rock star in 1970s Los Angeles - only she doesn't know it. Until she meets a strange man who claims he's watched over her for centuries, bound to her from the beginning.

At first, Helen doesn't believe him. Her life is as normal as any other modern career woman's. Then she begins having vivid dreams about ill-fated love and lives cut short.

Caught in a curse, Helen will be forced to relive the same tragic events that ruined her previous lives. But with each rebirth, she's developed uncanny powers. And as the most powerful version of herself, Helen must find a way to break the curse before her time runs out.

A Witch in Time is a bewitching tale of passion, reincarnation, and magic perfect for fans of A Secret History of Witches and Outlander.

Praise for A Witch in Time:

"A sweeping story of magical, star-crossed love, as glamorous as it is romantic. Prepare to be dazzled." (Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger)

"Incredibly engrossing and decadent in all the best ways, A Witch in Time is a sumptuous story of love and loss that's perfect for fans of historical fiction with a touch of fantasy." (Hypable)

"A narrative rich in historical detail, brightened by flashes of humor, and filled with colorful characters and fascinating settings. A most rewarding read!" (Louisa Morgan, author of A Secret History of Witches)

What the critics say

"With lush historical details and a wicked sense of humor, A Witch in Time fully immerses the reader in the story of Helen and her fated demon, unpacked like nesting dolls across time and lives, fortune and chance. From Belle Epoque France to modern-day D.C., from worlds pastoral, decadent, flashy to commercial, Sayers weaves a spell of love, lust and magic to create a page-turner like no other. All the thrill of a Discovery of Witches, with all the mystery and epic romance of Richard Matheson's classic Somewhere in Time." (Steph Post, author of Miraculum)

"Sayers cleverly twists the loves-lost-through-time motif.... A smart, engrossing debut from a writer to watch." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Sayers traverses time periods effortlessly with lush, graceful descriptions.... This spiraling narrative will appeal to fans of historical fiction and complicated love stories." (Publishers Weekly)

good read and kinda heart breaking

The book seems too stretched in bits and not enough in others, the revelations seem too quick, not impressed with the redemption arc for Luke, there was potential for so much more. The concept is nice and definitely worth exploring more. Nora's story is only whole plot out of the 4.

Flat

I wanted so much for this story to progress but it didn’t. It was so flat, repetitive and at the end boring.
