about the book
Iona Marchant came to the Hourglass Academy to study time. She did not come to fall in love with the impossible boy who works in the locked library after midnight — the one whose name nobody remembers in the morning.
But the academy is older than its walls, the bindings on its doors were not made by the faculty, and the spell that holds the impossible boy in place has begun to slip. Iona has until the last hour of the term to decide what she will spend to keep him in the world.
“The most powerful spell is the one between two people who choose each other.”
