Neon nights. Simmering sabotage. Midlife is one spicy meatball.

When a sinister force crashes her mother’s custody hearing and Neve realizes she’s being watched, she does what any self-respecting midlife mystic would do: clutches her geode, whispers a plea to Mercury Retrograde, and jumps into the past.

She lands in 1984 with Peregrine, inside Aura Cove’s Italian fine-dining restaurant, where neon lights glow, tempers simmer, and danger is camouflaged by charm. Carmen, a single mom, is waiting tables, and a brilliant, neurodivergent chef is trapped under the thumb of a controlling predator.

To set things right, Neve must topple a toxic power structure, protect the one who’s stolen her heart, and help Chef Enzo Bellini reclaim the confidence he’s lost. Each jump exacts a brutal toll, and if Neve waits too long, the truth she’s chasing may be lost forever.
